That really is some impressive lifting Malinda.
Sucks about the trailer not being big enough but nice compensation with the showers for you though.

Thanks guys. I was alittle mad at the time. Kinda worn out too tho.
Most I have ever done raw is 365 at a meet. I was pissed off after having put the dang suit on – it took about 30 minutes to get into it – not being able to do a dang thing in it… I am sure I will feel it today tho…
Malinda
Wow! 365lb with just a belt is amazing:) Was it a new suit that you were having problems with?
Both your bench and squat workout looked awesome!!!

Thanks Claire,
Yes, two new suits I tried to get on. Doesn’t help that I am still 5-6 pounds heavy…still working on it.
Malinda
Busy, busy as usual I see and the results to prove it. Great new log Malinda. Some darn strong girls on the new forum - and if I might add, it’s about time!
(I sent you a pm but I don’t think you got it…just didn’t want you to think I was being rude).

Malinda
Sure hope you don’t get sick.
Take care.
Diana

sorry you don’t feel so hot
happy the Giant’s won 
Rest up and drink lots.

Hope you feel better soon and have an easy day at workout.
Have you decided which squat suit you will be wearing at nationals?
Still not feeling great, but I am off to the gym anyway. I have decided on a squat suit Claire, just not sure which Deadlift suit yet… Have to decide soon and start training in it – only 5 weeks left.
Thanks all, I have been drinking lots of water – eating ok, you would think I would drop weight with this, but no such luck. I think I am the only person who gains weight when sick :(.

That stinks. Your body is probably still adjusting to the change in your sleeping habits. Are you taking lots of vitamin C too?
Good luck picking out a deadlift suit. I need to figure out a dl suit for myself. Any ideas would be great. Weren’t you dling in a squat suit before?
I hope you have a great workout:)
Claire
At least you’ll get the sickness out of the way before the Nationals.
always a bright side

Yeah, dl in a squat suit and squat in a dl suit – seems a bit backwards eh?
I tried on two different suits last week, well atleast I tried one for lifting and was too tired to get into the second one. I will most likely go into the dual quad tomorrow for deads and see how it goes. It is normally the type of suit I dl in, just a brand new one.
Training tonight went ok…Bench
115
135
165
training shirt
205
220
235
240 – pr in a training shirt.
Now I just have to get my weight down and keep those numbers.
Malinda
Hits a PR and says training was okay. Congrats on the PR. Getting close to your bench goal:)
Claire
Congrats on the PR! Even more impressive when you factor in your crazy work schedule, and the fact that you currently aren’t feeling 100%
Stay strong!
-Dan
Thanks Claire and Dan…
Ok, I am officially fed up with suits! I put on the dual quad that I start to put on last dl workout – but got to tired to finsh. Got it on – it hurt like hell. Weight felt easy off the floor, but I got stuck at my knees when it got heavy.
So, 390 made it to my knees – but lock out no.
135
225
275
belt
315
suit
345
375
390…
Ok so I really got to figure out this dang dl suit thing next week – only three more dl sessions until the meet.
