First 50lb York Fat Man Blob Lift

I was pretty excited to get this lift! I had been working on it backwards the whole time (not realizing it), I spun it around and lifted it pretty easily. I was all pumped up and called it a 100lber and said I lifted it backwards. I obviously didn't. I had my fingers on the handle side for the lift. HA!

Second 50lb York Fat Man Blob Lift


Grippers
RH
-174lb BBE X 5 BFN
LHv
-CoC #3 X 5 BFN

I was pretty well shot and had trouble setting and closing the grippers after the blob work, so I stopped there.

Based on my two workouts with the 50lb York Fat Man Blobs, the York side is much harder to lift. I think it's a combination of both weight and texture, but only a scale will tell part of that tale. The chalk seems to hold a little bit better on the 100 side (?). If I have some time this weekend, I'll try to take them over to the Post Office or the UPS store to weight them on a scale.
