Thank you Platus.
Sunday Nov 21st 2010 - Meet Day - 2010 Icelandic Powerlifting Cup
Something of a clusterfuck of a meet for me. In short, I made my openers.
Squat (Titan Centurion NXG size 44)
190kg (419 lbs) x 1
205kg (452 lbs) x F (depth, although a lot of ringside judges disagreed)
210kg (463 lbs) x F (depth, no ifs or buts, but very easy)
Actually the missed squats, 205 and 210, felt piss-easy. Just didn't
make depth. My coach wrapped my knees extremely tight with new,
stiffer wraps, much, much tighter than I've ever been wrapped before.
The wraps were excruciatingly painful and on both squats, I felt
as if I simply couldn't get any lower. My knees are a mass of bruises
which has never happened before. I might be able to squat 230 or
more wrapped this tight.
Bench Press (Titan F6 size 46)
135kg (298 lbs) x 1
142.5kg (314 lbs) x F (too heavy)
142.5kg (314 lbs) x F (too heavy)
Deadlift (raw)
220kg (485 lbs) x 1
235kg (518 lbs) x F (too heavy)
235kg (518 lbs) x F (too heavy)
A 545kg (1202 lbs) total and 3rd place (560, 580). I could
have placed higher if I hadn't been trying for PRs in my
2nd round lifts. Bummer.
