yep, singlet was hawt.
So no brightly colored speedos next year? remember our little secret??
Thats ok…I was going to go for my first PL meet anyway :D[/quote]
Haha, the BB comp…yes I remember. Hey, I’ll still do one, I’ll just push it back a few years. I think I can REALLY do some damage here, with the right people and motivation…so don’t worry 
Oh, and that singlet is NOT fun to bench in…my god. I felt violated! And at the bottom of the squat…HELLO! I’ll be finding another for future meets, haha.
That’s so awesome Ink, congrats on your trophy! =D
Great work Ink!
That writeup was really good too.
My school has pl competitions (though only push/pull) every fall, I’m now considering hitting up this fall’s competition. Thanks for the inspiration!
you said that you won your weight class for your age group but was there an “overall” 198 winner? I dont know much about PL comps so if this is a dumb question and anyone makes fun of me I will run away crying and never come back.

There was overall winners based on the total/weight lift coefficients, for the full power meet, push/pull, bench only, and curl only and they got a sweet plaque. This took away the separate divisions and was basically like a “strongest lifter” for easy event. I think if my bench were a little stronger, I would have won that one. Next time!
Blaze, just do it man, it’s a great experience to have done, regardless of winning or not.
Speaking of WINNING…
what were some of the high totals?
Sweet trophy man… and thats quite the cute kid you got there. Good thing she doesnt look like her dad lol <3
Friggin sweet man. Congrats on the W!!!

They’ll post up results ina couple days, so I’ll know then, but there were some big lifts and some >600# dl’s if I recall. Once I was done, I was done, and didn’t pay attention to the amount on the bar of other lifters, I just spent the rest of time eating, drinking, and yelling “LOCK IT OUT” and “GET IT” to everyone, even my oldest yelled “GET IT” to one of the lifters. Haha.
And yeah, both of my daughters should be glad they get their looks from their mom!
That’s a nice Trophy! Way nicer than some of the racing ones they gave out. I think I’m gonna like this sport better!!
Thanks for the tip on the bench. Duly noted.
Have you got the next one planned yet?
Good job!
I don’t know about the next one yet, I’d like to do one after I get back from South Africa in June, so I’ll be checking out push/pulls and what not around then. Really gotta kill my bench lockout and up that weight. I want a 300# raw paused bench at 198, that’d be good, me thinks.
Thanks Trav!

If that is what you want then you have me blessings.
Congratulations Ink! Whoot! Whoot! Very fun to watch the videos.
If I’d been in the area, I’d have taken the little pumpkins off your hands. What a little cutie you’ve got there.
That’s Grade-A fucking AWESOME!
and you rocked the singlet without the T.
funny - I also started first on all my lifts. I also screwed up my benching and only got my opener.
we’ll work on ours squats together and rock the shit out of our nexts meets.
LWI.
Thanks puff, I’m sure my girls would love ya, they are very accepting and welcoming to new people.
N, you got it girl let’s do it, when’s your next one going to be? I’ll try and schedule one accordingly. Oh, and of course I rocked it shirtless, hit right? Haha, I love this fucking sport!
LWI!
