When you put your singlet on start strutting around saying ‘man I feel like a sexy beast’!!! works for me, anyway. I don’t know if I would advise the sock stuffing, though, that didn’t pan out like I had hoped…

that’s because you’re supposed to stuff the FRONT of your mantard…
Kick ass, Meat!!
waiting with baited breath
What’s “BOF”? Best On Floor? I’m assuming it’s some kind of total without actually competing.

BOF = Bench Only Fag
i’m back!!! what a hell of a drive that was…12 hours each way. i won’t be driving to Nashville again anytime soon.
anyway, comp. went well. i was a BOF so anything i did was pathetic anyway:)
When i post the vids, you can see a side judge with a green hat on. that would be the one and only Louie Simmons. talk about pressure. there were a ton of Westside lifters and a bunch of Elitefts sponsored folks there.
I opened with 455… went up easy… 3 whites. Second attempt was 485… went up easy… 3 whites. being flat backed i had to muscle everything. i had no cheaters arch. went to 495 for my third. blasted it off my chest and it drifted… if i had an arch it would have been a cake walk.
my second attempt was good enough to win my division and give me the highest raw bench of the comp.
both my guys did really well and set PR’s across the board.
i’m glad to be back and will start back training on thursday…
oh… forgot to mention, i weighed in at 256… that’s just crazy talk:)
i’ll get vids up tonight after work.
Congratulations on the meet, Meat! Oh yeah, and on the weight. You’re just wasting away to nothing!
Congrats on the win!! Louie Simmons watching would be a little stressfull. Is that the most you’ve done at a meet?? Whats up with you being so skinny?? If you stay at that weight you’ll be benching twice your BW in no time.

i’ve hit 495 but it was at a local meet and i had a bit of a dip:) so i’m call’n it a 10lb PR in a “real” federation. i’ll break that 500lb mark in a meet sometime. i have two more meets scheduled. the next will be bench only and then a push pull after that. hopefully the lower back will come around.
yeah… tell me about it. i’m wasting away:) i was back up to 265 when i got home yesterday. i was looking to hit a 2x bodyweight bench. i wanted to come in at 250.
You’ll have to change the name of this thing to “Skinny Guy in a Little Coat”. 
“highest raw bench of the comp” means to me that you stomped it. Nice job!
Nice work my BOF buddy! From what I have heard there was some pretty amazing lifts there. I saw Charles Bailey’s single ply total, that is just nuts! I like how the SPF is offering raw, single, and multi-ply divisions.

Well shit, If I had known it was in Nashville I’d have gone up to see it. Thats only 2.5 hours or so for me.
Good job on the win.

12 hour drive?!?! I would have gone mad!! Great job on your bench. (:
Congrats, man!! Awesome.
Question: Why ‘flat backed’? Is that a federation ‘raw’ rule that you can’t arch your back or something? If you explained that in an earlier post, sorry I missed it.
Congrats. That is a great performance especially when recovering from injury.

i get very anxious in a car for long rides. i had to break it up into legs and not concentrate on the overall length. good thing i didn’t realize how far it was until i got in the car. i probably wouldn’t have gone.

no rule… i can’t arch because it really irritates my lower back right now. you can arch as much as you want as long as your ass is still touching the bench. i’ll be backing to being a full fledged cheater in no time.
