compete at least once in 2010 and bump my total:
Squat: 122.5kg (269.5lbs) → 140kg (308#)
Bench: 80kg (176lbs) → 95kg (209#)
Dead: 170kg (374lbs) → 185kg (407#)
total: 372.5kg (819.5lbs) → 420kg (924lbs)

Almost there on my total 417.5 vs 420. If that 2nd deadlift attempt hadn’t gone sour I might have made it.
Squat got there with a 145kg
Bench was 2.5 kg shy
Deadlift 5 kg shy, 185 would have been my 3rd attempt.

Ok, my goals were a bit lofty and really got this thread off track. So I’ve come up with more achievable goals.
Sneak outta bed while Miss Boll Weevil, 1984, is puttin her teeth back in, jump out the bathroom window of the motel 6, light up a swisher sweet and take a chug of MD 20/20. Grab a bag of goobers form the parkin lot vending machine, put a quart of oil in and drive my beat to shit 73 Ford 100 down to the dock, unhitch my jon boat and float out to a sand bar. Take a good piss in the river, stretch out on the sand, slap the skeeters off, open a can of vienna sausage and salute the sun comin up from the Tennessee River with a warm PBR.
And lift heavy shit. [/quote]
I know it’s late, but this sounds like a realistic goal. Have you achieved it yet? ;)[/quote]
More times than I care to remember, but not recently.

OK - before we get too carried away with our 2011 goals, here’s the thread on our 2010 goals.
My results:
-
sub-200# BW - not even close, I’m running just below 220# and that’s where I’ll stay while competing.
-
Bench 230 - nope, I hit 215 a month ago and failed at 225 yesterday.
-
Squat 330 - almost, I hit 325 just 3 days ago and had I remembered this goal I would have tried 330 instead.
-
Deadlift 415 - sucess, I lifted 425# conventional this fall and hope to hit 415 sumo tomorrow.
compete at least once in 2010 and bump my total: Yep
Squat: 122.5kg (269.5lbs) → 140kg (308#) → Actual 145kg (319#)
Bench: 80kg (176lbs) → 95kg (209#) → Acutal 92.5kg (203.5#)
Dead: 170kg (374lbs) → 185kg (407#) → Acutal 180kg (396#)
total: 372.5kg (819.5lbs) → 420kg (924lbs) → Actual 417.5kg (918.5#)
Close on the meet results and if circumanstances hadn’t prevented me doing the December meet, I wouild had passed all of those meet goals
My 2010 goals were to bench 400 raw… did not achieve 
squat 500 raw… acheieved 
deadlift 600 raw… achieved
military press 250 raw… achieved
drop bodyweight to 240-245… close, but no cigar…
compete in a couple of powerlifting meets… achieved (one meet)… with crappy results
Goals for 2011…
squat 600, bench 400+, deadlift 700 and military press 300… all raw.
compete in a couple of meets, possibly even a strongman, and to win the World Police and Firefighter Games Push/ Pull competition in New York in August 2011.
Try and drop some weight back down to 240-245… (said whilst trying to stifle a grin)

this is what I wanted 2010 was a bit of a bust training wise
squat 450
pull 500+
front squat 300
OH squat 225x3
I wanted to get taller too
write like Hel320
Not much happened here-
just got back to training after a 5 month hiatus…
right now I cant back squat
pulled 445 in feb
and squatted 385 for a double so I was on my way.
next year
nice to see this. I made the most important goal: got a fuggen job. I have pulled 700 in the gym and benched 700 to a 1 board in the gym. So I got really close to those goals. Now I just need to do them in a meet. with squatting. Right now that looks like 3/19. Not too far off.
2010 Goals…Let’s see if I can dismember…
Bench - 315…Did 320…Can no longer flat bench as low back is screwed up
Incline - No goal…Did 275
Standing Mil - BW(220)…did 240
Pulls - 315…I know, I suck…did 315 Sumo Style
Box Squat - No goal…did 275…again, I know I suck
Take care of problem with right leg and hip…Not as successful as I’d hope…need more work on it because like I said previously, I suck!
Since I’ve returned to school…Phi Beta Kappa…I have the GPA (3.937), now let’s see if they call me!
Not kill someone…This was close, but I was successful
2011 Goals:
Incline Bench - 305
Standing Mil - 265
Pulls - 365
Box Squat - 315
More mobility work, more conditioning work, less worrying about the small shit, continued good grades, do something nice for someone each day, say something positive to someone each day, not use Just for Today, eat my Wheaties, get my blood pressure down a bit, and last but not least, for now anyways, treat others as I would expect to be treated!!! It may be the Golden Rule, but man can I forget about it when it’s convenient.
And just so I don’t forget these goals, I’ve cut and pasted them to my training spreadsheet!!!
