a home game. I lift my own weight. At home. Jürgen Wunderlich accompanied my coach me through the race. Walter Wolfgang and stuck organize the weights, Toni and Karin the process and Salih Meryem's judges. It's almost like training. Today I run 54.1 kg body weight.
I am relaxed, for my power values In recent training sessions are very good, but almost a little trouble at first to adjust to the competition. Jürgen feel that I need on that day a few warm-up trials. More than usual it pays off, and the technically best sprints me succeed on the platform. After 42 kg and 44 kg good I want to log 46 kg, but will be outvoted by Jürgen. "46 kg, we had already - 47!" he calls the registration desk and the bar is already loaded. Now is no turning back, so is the weightlifting. I am motivated, focused and relaxed - and the experiment succeeds, to my own surprise, even very good. I raise deeper than usual into the squat and the weight does not feel heavy to, as in the first two attempts. New personal best 47 kg! We are all thrilled. I need some time to realize what just happened there. Since 1 1 / 2 years I've tried no attempt on my current personal best of 46 so far only. A good start to the competition!
"This is 3 kg more than the World Cup" is my support team, laconically. "This could be a new personal best. If the piercing is running as planned, we can beat the previous German record in the 58 kg class.". And already forgotten what the competition had been planned. "We make it easy to get out of the training," my coach said ... and now we are at a record hunt.
The piercing is going well. 60 kg and 63 kg are not a problem, but we know - I'm now a bit soft in the upper back, so that we increase the last attempt only to 65 kg. The attempt succeeds, but after ejecting I have to fight to stabilize the load. 112 kg in a battle for victory mean in my class and in the relative standings and 2 kg more than the existing German record of Gudrun Schmidberger in the 58 kg category.
also for the team competition, it is going well! Alexander and Alexey Wiebe and Martin Nützel are all in very good shape, because in a few weeks of the next competition is in the Franken league. All you get your classes. Alexander remains only slightly below his best performances and Martin proves kg 107kg / 130, that he is already much better than last year in the form Alexey shot but once again from the bird, and contributes not only 68 relative points in the team standings, but breaks even the Eternal Club record in putting. With an impressive, 156 kg, it raises the maximum capacity of the event and sets it on the top of the record list of the 1 AC Bayreuth and replaced after many years, Karl Schreiber. The team victory for the AC Bayreuth is so safe and is rewarded with a trophy that Alexey and I admit now proud of the place of our best trophy shelf.
