Did a mock meet yesterday, but I only wanted to go up to my second attempts:

Squat:

135x10
225x5
315x3
405x1
440x1
485 - first attempt
510 - second attempt

Bench:

135x10
185x5
225x4
275x3
315x1
335 - first attempt
355 - second attempt

Deadlift:

135x10
225x5
315x3
405x1
495x1
550 - first attempt
585 - second attempt (ties my current PR that I hit a couple weeks ago)

Total = 1450

I weighed in at 197 in the morning and I took a week off before doing this mock meet to allow my body to recover from a cycle of Sheiko. My left hip and knee were starting to feel beat up, but both felt fine yesterday. The squats felt a little heavier than I expected, especially considering that I had done 500 for a double just a week earlier at the top of my pyramid. I was hoping to do more on my second attempt for bench, but my first attempt didn’t go up as fast as I wanted it to. By the time I got to deadlift, I was pretty tired. I was planning on doing 575 as my second attempt but the guys there said to just do 6 plates instead, and so I did.

Overall, I’m feeling more confident going into my meet that’s at the end of March. My first meet ever was in January and it didn’t go as planned and I wasn’t feeling so great after it. Training was good but when it came time for the meet, I just bombed out on weights I was hitting easily in training. I’m planning on running another cycle of Sheiko (I modify #40 to help me work on my weak areas) up until my meet. Hoping everything goes as planned this time.
