Hey, Mighty, I just got a 30 pound deadlift PR. I have beaten your total… Now time to go after your strength to weight ratio. :)[/quote]
Never! lol
Congrats my friend. I’d say I was doing pretty good for how low my testosterone is! I’ll be coming after you when I recover though so watch your back! ha

I agree, you definitely did very well. I’m pretty sure there won’t be many, or any naturals here with my test levels.
Yep, I’ll have to watch my back especially if your squat/bench get on par with your deadlift. Being decent at the other two competition lifts really helps.
I was making some pretty good progress on my bench and squat before I had to take time off My close grip was probably around 240 on a good day. Its depressing though because I doubt I’ll be able to do the powerlifting meet in November now. Maybe I could just do the curl or something…lol
November 16th. I really want to go, but I have to give my hormones time to recover. I don’t even have low bar squats and deadlifts in my program right now.

Ah, I really can’t help you there. I was going to recommend you to spend four weeks recovering/retraining, then peek with whatever you prefer to use.
Stayed over a couple of hours at work, so had to rush workout today. Also have a lot to do tonight. Going to see Everclear in concert out of town with my girlfriend and then coming back Saturday to make a hockey game.

Way to rub it in! Good job staying tight throughout. Don’t worry, I’ll be squatting more than that eventually! [/quote]
I’m sure you will, mighty. Oh, believe it or not my ab/back endurance felt like it was going to give out if I had to grind for another couple of second.
I still perform a mini good morning on my squats. Hopefully I can fix that, and perhaps save some wasted energy.
Felt pretty weak today. Top set was tougher than it shouldve been. Possibly weaker because of the terrible allergy symptoms I’ve been having. Eyes have been red all day and extremely puffy in the morning.

Might slowly start adding more conditioning while keeping the weights light and doing the required reps. I’ve definitely gained some fat around the midsection. Its something I’ll have to do before trying to get back into powerlifting for sure.
