Im debating whether to even bother trying to make weight for this meet or just lifting in the class I weigh in at. Im usually weighing around 190 in the morning. Was going to compete in the 181s, not really sure. Guess we’ll see how things pan out.[/quote]
A haircut would probably also yield about 4 and a half pounds off too.[/quote]
LOL
Don’t worry about cutting more than 5 ish pounds, shit isn’t worth it. Just go sfw.
Oh, and its called a “total”, not s/b/d, you freakin newb. [/quote]
s/b/d meant stupid big daddy…referring to you
Yeah thats pretty much where im at with it weight wise…so we’ll see how it pans out
Deficit DL (off a bumper 45 and regular 45; all hook grip)
135/185/225/255x5
275x7 PR
NOTES: Ok day. On sumo’s my feet kept sliding out on the platform so I wasnt going to risk it on the 405 and called it after 1 rep. Good PR with 365, best with that yet was a triple. Solid FS PR. Used hook grip for all deficit deads, ouch! Going to continue it!

NOTES: Great benching day! 225 paused flew up, 235 got stuck about 4" off chest! Very happy with the 225 PR as that was the goal for the session. Put some good work in afterwards, everything felt pretty solid overall.

nice benching dude. also question, do you think if i wear a powerlifting belt, that my max deadlift would go up from that?[/quote]
Yeah, belts usually add some lb’s to your max because you have something to push your belly out against thus stabilizing you much better.

I hear yah’ on the library hate, I’ve been sitting in this cold emotionless building for most of today and will be here for a few more hours yet. GAWD I just wanna lift weights and be swole n’ stuff, not study…
Good bench Pr… hitting 2 plates for me after so long felt pretty good and I finally felt somewhat like I wasn’t totally and utterly embarrased with my bench (though still far, far from impressed with, lol)… my next… not too far off goal is 100kg incline… very much doubt I’ll try it tomorrow though… ps. your devil row weights are good as per.
Appreciate all of your comments! Thanks Jake, yeah hitting 2 plates paused is pretty nice. NEED MOAR! Black, thanks brotha, means alot coming from ya!

NOTES: Tonight was a pretty meh session. For some reason felt nauseous the entire session and on the verge of puking. Must of been from the protein bar i inhaled before i started training, fml. Everything felt pretty decent. Off day tomorrow, time to sleep in and recover. Looking for a BIG squat day friday!
NOTES: Plan was to work up to what was hopefully going to be an ez 330 second attempt squat, did just that! Everything felt pretty good overall! Paused squats were brutal, didnt think I was going to make the 3x3 with 275, pretty pumped I did and can tell that out of the hole is a weak point for me. Overall awesome training today, feeling good!
