Depth looks good too.
Did you go full ISF on the guy walking around the side of the rack while you were doing your triple? **** like that infuriates me, mostly because it has the potential to be dangerous; if it's so vital you get that 10 pound plate from the tree on the rack, wait until I don't have weight on my back. I guess it's also annoying because I tend to hyperfocus on stuff like that and give people with weight unracked a pretty wide berth and/or wait until they're done to walk through their direct field of vision or around the sides of where they are. Meh.
Thanks for the feedback. I think 435 was a 7.5 and will prob do 440 next time. I threw a 10 lb plate at that guy after my set and hit him in the knee. Ok not really but should have. It bothers me a little but not to the same extent it seems to antagonize you.
