Everything went according to plan except for the Harness Lift.  I need to remember to attached the chain to the hip belt and then connect the shoulder straps.  I could not move anything when the heavy lift bar was pulling down on the shoulder straps.  The heavy lift bar and hand & thigh bar worked perfectly.  The chain threaded through nicely and it felt solid.  Jarrod loaded it to 720 pound for a Hand & Thigh Lift.

There was a mix up with the events so I finished on Sunday (1/26/2025)
