Well, it’s all come down to this. The meet is tomorrow and I couldn’t be more excited. I’m the only one in my age division, so 1st place is guaranteed. Don’t care, though - I’m out there to smash some fucking weights.
Shaved my head, got the goatee all lined up and pretty (gonna grow it out for as long as I can), and my bag is packed. Time to lift some heavy shit. Gonna keep y’all updated throughout the day tomorrow.

Saturday, July 28, 2012 - Meet Day
6:15 AM - Woke up and ate breakfast. Only got about 4 hours of sleep because I was so excited. Couldn’t fall asleep.
7:50 AM - Got to the gym and weighed in at 189.8. Less than I expected, but didn’t matter much to me.
8:15 AM - Went to McDonald’s and had 3 egg and sausage McMuffins.
9:30 AM - Rules meeting. Self explanatory.
10:15 AM - Started lifting.
SQUAT
1st Attempt: 155 kg/341 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: Sat down and came back up with it. Spent a little too long in the whole, but I was just nervous. Okay, I’m in the meet.
2nd Attempt: 165kg/363 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: Smoke show. Down and up. Easier than my opener.
3rd Attempt: 172.5kg/379.5 lbs. No lift, 3 reds
NOTES: Sat down and lost tightness. Got about a quarter of the way up and it started to roll forward. Spotters did a great job of catching it. Wasn’t too worried about it because I knew I could kill it on bench.
BENCH
1st Attempt: 115kg/254 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: Smoke show.
2nd Attempt: 122.5kg/269.5 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: Smoke show.
3rd Attempt: 127.5kg/ 280.5 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: Everything was feeling good until I got about 2 inches from my chest. I lost tightness and touched too high. But, I stayed calm and just pushed the shit out of. Took a while, but I locked it out.
DEADLIFTS
1st Attempt: 170 kg/374 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: I lift things up and put them down. Simple as that.
2nd Attempt: 182.5kg/401.5 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: Since I knew it was over 400, my mind started to run. I ended up stiff legging it a bit, but I got it no problem.
3rd Attempt: 190 kg/418 lbs. Good lift, 3 whites
NOTES: This was the mother of all grinders. I got it to about my knees and that’s when I started to shake. I pulled with everything I fucking had and locked it out. I was so happy about that. I just held it there for a couple of seconds and yelled out of excitement.
ENDING NOTES: I ended up going 8 for 9 and totaling 482.5kg/1063 lbs. I was looking for 1050 and beat it by 13 lbs. Overall, it was a fucking blast and can’t wait to do it again. I won my age bracket by 1063 lbs. and got a midevil dagger for a prize. I’ll post videos and pictures up later. The videos are on my parents’ phones, so they’ll be up later in the night. Still can’t believe that just happened.

Taking the week off from lifting per Eddie’s advice. Also working and going on vacation, so it’ll be a good way to relax. Just gonna sleep the rest of the day because I’m tired as hell and beat to shit.
