495x1 - first rep slow, but solid, on the second rep I lost focus at the bottom, turned into a GOOD MORNING nad stalled about halfway up. I think I could have finished it if I had to but no need to kill myself this close to the meet, just dumped it.

Nothing fancy today. Everything felt pretty light. I was kind of worried since I’d kind of deviated from the plan I’d written out due to long hours at work and the exam, but I feel like strengthwise I’m right where I want to be.
Going up to a squat opener Sunday, light bench on Tuesday then that’s it for lifting until the Meet next Saturday.

2nd: 225.0 KG (496-lbs) - 3W
3rd: 235.0 KG (518-lbs) - went deeper than I meant to and the weight rolled onto the back of my neck, did my best to gut it out but only got halfway up - 3R
someone said they got a video of the third squat I’ll try to upload it to see if anyone can see what I should have done differently.
Bench: 135x10 225x5 275x1 295x1

2nd: 245.0 KG (540-lbs) - easier than the first - 3W
3rd: 255.0 KG (562-lbs) - hips came up too fast, only got it up to knees - 3R
6 out of 9 lifts, 620 KG (1367 - lbs)
Overall I felt good with how things went. Training hadn’t been as consistent as I would have liked due to work and exams. Had it I might have gotten the third squat and third deadlift. For the bench I hadn’t done a meet in sometime and had forgot how long the pause was. I’ll try to train that more for next time.
Nice meeting you at the meet. I didn’t know this was you b/c the YouTube videos are blocked at work, so I didn’t know what you looked like. I was the guy watching your deadlift next to the black lady judge (who clearly jinxed you by telling me you had the best DL in the group and to pattern mine after yours) after I stunk it up on my DL.
Nice work. I posted my results on my log. I did OK, but I’ve got a lot of work to do.
