Coach programmed me to use a Blue slingshot for this 3RM day. We do not have a blue one at NBS but we had a ton of red ones, so I went through and found the largest and most worn out slingshot we had. I ended up with a 2xl 4 year old red slingshot. The session was going well until I crapped the bench and missed 405 for 3, I got sloppy and rushed rep number two which completely compromised rep three. You can see in the video how I pause at lockout, usually when I do this I am in my head, thats exactly what happened.
On the bright side, one of my training partners came in late (after I was done) and said he had a blue slingshot. It to was a 2xl so I tried it on, come to find out the worn out red was significantly looser so I am in a good place.
