Supergirl ?!?

Shy calls me Supergirl. It's our semi private joke. He looks a lot like superman,  and one day I told him that when I finish one of his tough workouts,  I feel like Supergirl. He told me I might as well be Supergirl when I do them. I know I'm not the strongest woman in the gym, but I feel like Shy genuinely is impressed by what I can do,  and how hard I work. Yesterday he told me how nice it was to be able to verbally correct form--that is something JC used to say.

Earlier this week I hit a new squat record!  My new 1 rep max is 200 pounds :) I'm so proud of it, and ive watched the video so many times. This was one time I really truly thought I wasn't going to do it. I went all the way down, got half way up and got stuck! Shy started saying "bust it...bust it...drive...drive" in my ear, and I felt his wrists tap my ribs and I found that last little bit of strength to finish it. He told me later he was just a few seconds away from helping. ..
