    I went 9 for 9 and set provincial records on all lifts and total. Pr'd my squat and deadlift, and tied my best comp bench from 5 years ago.
    Great work, Marc! Way to represent the old men crew!!!

    Recover well.

    1st day back after my meet - took it easy

    Warm up - 500M row

    Squat
    bar-10
    155-5
    265-5,5,5, did about 50% of my 1RM

    Calf raise - 155-11,11

    Bench
    Bar-15
    155-5
    245-5,6,6, - about 65% of !RM

    Tricep press downs - 80-15,15,

    Quick and easy. Still not sure on future plans but needed to get a work out in to avoid DOMS

    Yesterday:
    I'm now trying to fit in some cardio between workouts
    60M sprints at 80% effort - short rest in between - Did 10 or so
    Once warmed up I surprised myself that I can still run fairly fast, at least for a 60 year old. Nowhere as fast as when I was in highschool track, but can likely outrun most people 35+ if a bear was chasing us!

    Today:
    Feeling the effects of sprinting yesterday - sore abs, left knee/innershin has minor pain, enough to make me almost limp
    2nd workout since comp - Did most exercises at ~50% of 1RM - Just getting back into things

    Deadlift
    Bar-10,
    155-5
    265-10 - beltless, dbl overhand grip - ~45% of 1RM

    DB incline bench - slight incline - 1st hole
    50-10,
    75-10,10,

    Bent over BB row
    155-10,10,

    Lat pull down
    225-10,10,

    OH DB press
    50-10,10,

    DB curls
    25-10,10,

    No offense Skid, but I had to laugh a little at this. I did a 10 x 100 meter sprint interval workout a couple of months ago..."sprinting" for the first time in a long time and suffered the same consequences.

    Still...it was a nice diversion and I'm likely to do it again in the not-too-distant future.
