Congrats to Marlene K: Lifetime Bench PR

The Results of Consistency and Perseverance 

About this time last year Marlene was roughly 4 weeks post-op for shoulder SLAP tear reconstruction in a sling. Took months to rehab before she could even begin to lift again. This morning she close grip benched 135 x 5 for three sets clean, a lifetime PR. No evidence of any imbalance despite months of disuse. Even when we lifted "old school" heavy with a good shoulder, the best she could muster was a couple reps. She showed up on all counts throughout 2012, today rewarded with a lifetime PR. Great job Marlene.
