On the Two Hands Pinch I lifted 109.25k, then 116.95k, and then got air under 125.3k.
I tore my skin badly on the second lift, and it was this that gave way on my third lift with 125.3k.
This shows I am at 125k level, and I will be ready to claim this poundage at the next event.
I was also very pleased with the 22 secs hold with 100k, as I already had a gash in my thumb webbing!

New World Records - well done!
