Alan,

If I were hunting that WOB PR as hard as you are, I'd make sure that I didn't go in too early--say 13'6" ? or even 14 if I knew I felt good. If you miss it--you would have definitely missed if you went in early. You just have to decide between a BIG PR and a possible no score. What can I say, I'm not that thoughtful or strategy minded. I'd chew my cud until they put that bar up to 14---grab that weight, REALLY extend and go for that big PR.

When I see someone who has the height, but doesn't roll it over, its usually because of about a 5 degree difference in their release point. Fatigue makes you release early--out in front. Wind up with a straight up throw--has the height but because the release is early it doesn't arc as far behind your head.

You'll see guys who feel this happening start moving more under the bar. Problem is, by then they are even MORE fatigued and the release point is even more out in front and early.

Make sense?

I'm sure you'll know what to do--I'm just telling how I'd handle it. Good luck!
