Little late but great job on the squat PR. Squat seems to be going up fast now.
Kimba: I think it could cause professional issues if I went around taking pictures of the students, just say’in. while I appreciate the thought I suffer from the dread affliction Noassatall. I am looking forward to Worlds though.
Cav: After World’s I’ll have around a five month break from meets to really try and push my numbers. I’m shooting for a +55 to my total though +30 might be more realistic.
LP: I’ll be lifting on Sat. I don’t think I’ll make early weigh in of Friday which is a shame as I’ll be coming in close to 198.
james: Outstanding, glad to know its getting some use.
DD: I find that I have to really push my squat to get it to move, even if that mean the first couple of times I try a weight I don’t quiet get it down to competition depth. My gym depth is much more of a struggle than meet depth anyway so it doesn’t bother me much.
Aim high, Joe. you are a helluva lot stronger than you give yoruself credit for…+55!!!

Right now the +55 would require a 330 squat, a 415 DL and a 255 bench. Those are possible but everything would have to go just right.

Gassed at teh end for some reason. If I had a spotter I would have gotten two reps on the money set for sure.
I would be gassed too- nice presing.
and a bbb set no wonder you are gased.
congrats on that squat PR- Nice Work!!
If I did 78 reps of bench work, I would have to ice my shoulders for a month…nice work Joe!

Thanks, so far I haven’t had any shoulder issues so far with widening my grip.

I think you will get those easy. I seem to remember you ‘under selling’ yourself before your last meet too and you exceeded your expectations.
I think you’re a big game player.
As I’ve said before…sandbagger. Joe is sneaky strong.
I hope you guys are right but I’m not so sure of it right now.

Pretty tired. Felt strong but just didn’t get down on the 335. Vexing but I guess it comes with the territory.
Joe are you on the Sheiko? how’s it treating you?

I have not yet begun to Sheiko. Most likely I will do a cycle after national though I have to admit the lack of heavy singles worries me.

Great to here it Joe.
Great news on the biopsy. I hope your wife is doing better with everything.
I tried widening my bench grip a little (pinkies on rings) and it went horribly. I have pretty narrow shoulders and a narrow grip just feels better.
That’s great news Joe!
That’s great news on the biopsy. You must be very relieved.
That’s a lot of benching the other day. Do you really think you should be throwing face palms in at the end?
