Congrats on the PR. I'm looking to compete in a powerlifting meet by the end of this year.
Good luck.

Monday 6/2/12
Squat:
10x44
5x88
5x110
3x5x132
Deload to work on form, my knees have been coming in way too much.
OHP:
8x44
5x55
5x71.5
5x77
2x82.5
My overheads were shit, I'm blaming it yesterday's bench.
PowerCleans:
2x3x66
Approx 12 singles at 88 - no bumpers at my gym so I placed the loaded bar on a bunch of other plates to approximate the correct height. First time pulling from the ground.
Approx 8 singles at 99 - PR.
A few singles at 110, didn't manage to rack as the bar only came to breast height, should've really gone for 104.5.
This was my first time doing PowerCleans for a while, I've almost finished that chapter in The Book and it's helped a lot but I just don't feel explosive. 99lbs felt pretty light, and racked ok, but it took a long leisurly walk up to my shoulders rather than a sprint. I just can't seem to jump hard with a barbell in my hands.
Tomorrow I'm hoping to get that 220 deadlift, if I pull it off I'll post a vid. If I don't I'll hang my head in shame, wallow in self pity, and then pull it Saturday.
