Congrats on the 305 squat!! How is the DL coming along? Have you gotten close to 300 yet?
I hit 305 on that last week. I posted the video link to youtube a couple of days back. I went for 315 but couldn’t move it.[/quote]
O, if you have some formula for pulling 300, do tell. I haven’t maxed out lately, but I have a feeling I won’t make anything in the 300s just yet.

I was pretty tapped out tonight. I saw the chiro/ART guy today and I find after I visit him and train the same day, it’s a bit dodgy. He adjusted my back and we chatted a bit during which we discussed my periods. Good times. His assistant looked like she wanted to shoot herself.
I’m dialing things back over the next little bit. I have 2 1/2 training weeks left until the meet. My goal right now is to stay as strong as I am. The crazy volume and PR pushes are over. One day will be lighter speed stuff like today and one day will be heavy singles working to my opener. I may do a third day of light stuff. On Thursday I’m heading out to Brantford to train squats with a multi-ply guy out there (who apparently is not on the list pending from one of the Niagara guys). On Saturday I hope to be heading to TO to work my shirt with the fabulous W.E.C. who just competed in the Montreal CPO meet and KICKED ASS!!!

That’s great. Is it your first meet? You’ll have to hunt me down and introduce yourself. There will be a few of us there. Diana will be rooming with me but not competing. I think Court may be there to cheer everyone on as well.
You’re right that I should have taken my food. I used to as a matter of course because I’m not like all the fat bastards that can go for hours without eating. I just wasn’t thinking on Saturday.[/quote]
Yeah, first time, babe in the woods. I’ve been a spectator at a couple of CPO multi-ply events. I thought it was time to put it all out there, on the platform. I’ll make a point of saying hello. I’ll be the short, stocky guy.
Edited: Corrected CPU to CPO - too damn many acronyms

Short and stocky is how we like 'em, well Julie isn’t as picky but you know what I mean.
Looking good OB_s, Its getting close!!!

They’re all short and stocky. Wear pink Chucks to distinguish yourself.

That’s what I was thinking. Not the pink chucks but the short stocky part. It isn’t exactly a sport populated by gazelles.

Meh, they tired me out but I didn’t go heavy on them. I just used 30’s and focused on staying upright and not leaning. How have you found them?

I think at least one guy can wear pink chucks 
I’m thinking of getting my own pair of chucks. I may go for the skull ones. Seriously. I think I saw a pair at the mall.

I actually really like the shoes some of the guys have at the club…I think they’re Asics? N wears them for squatting and likely deadlifting. I think Matty has a pair too. If I could get them in Pink and Black I would. Maybe instead of shoes though I should just get my own squat suit that actually fits… haha

I used 60’s and 70’s but I am a little bigger then you… even though your sinclair is better.
Much better.
and like you I just focused on posture, I think I wil go for brke next time… and go heavier.
I did not like the dragon flags, I feel the hanging leg raises feet to bar that I normally do are better, and help my lower back more.
as for bitchy pink chucks I would rock a pink mantard I mean how many guys show up in all black.
thats right FTW pink Mantard!!!

I think I’ll check their shoes out next time I’m down. I wonder if they come in all the funkedelic colours that chucks do.

What’s a Sinclair? Is that like an eclair? I could totally go for one right now.
