I remember the first time i hit 225 x 10, it was awesome feeling, back then I never thought I would ever hit 225 x 10, but now I hit it for 21 reps arched and 19 with back flat. 11+ will go up soon, 225 x 10 is pretty much an exact 300 1 rep max so it makes sense you only got 10, so if you get it for 11 your max will probably be 305+. Keep working buddy, you will hit 3 plates per side before you know it, hitting that is another awesome feeling.
@MikeZourdos, Good work man. I hit 225 x 10 about a month ago or so. Switched up my workouts so I won't see how many i can get for a little while. I'd say I am right around 300 1 rep max right now too. I got 290 at the end of my full sets yesterday, never attempted 300. Gonna wait a bit, it's a really good feeling to get a new PB first try. Your right though man, 315 is gonna be awesome. Can't wait.
Thanks man, very nice job by you too. Yes, my max was right at 300 at the time.
