CrossFit Total?

"CrossFit Total"
Back squat, 1 rep
Shoulder Press, 1 rep
Deadlift, 1 rep

Back Squat: 425lbs
Shoulder Press: 200lbs
Deadlift: 425

CrossFit Total: 1080lbs

First time doing a CFT. I had never maxed out on Deadlifts or shoulder press. Was shooting for 1100lbs.

Had the best squat, as far as depth and form go, in a long time. Long way off from my best ever, but not too eager to get back to there either.

Need to work on shoulder press form and deadlifts. I will definitely hit or surpass the 1100lb mark next time.
