Not going to post any specifics as far as numbers go, for security, but here's a short summary of how the event went.
POB is a certified monster now. Last time I saw him he was 235 and well built, but after an epic sushi pre-meet-meal on Friday, come Saturday he was knocking on the door of 270 and not the least bit sloppy. He left some pounds on the stage in the squat and probably the bench as well, so in reality he is stronger than even his highly respectable total would suggest. We had a great time, as I'm sure we both expected, and even had a surprise visit from the greatest squatter ever. POB might have even gained a little respect for crossfitters.....
For me, I went bench only and set a PR by over 30 pounds. It killed me to not lift all three, but I got so much pride and enjoyment out of seeing my "team" that I kinda "coached" smashing PRs left and right, I don't think I could've been much happier with how it all turned out.
