Saturday, 12/6/14

Did my first full powerlifting meet.

Squat
269.5x1
297x1
313.5x1

Made all three attempts. I was a bit worried about squatting deep enough during the heavier attempts but got all three white lights for the second and third squats.

Bench Press
198x1
214.5x1
231x0

Tried for a 5lb PR but the bar barely budged at the "press" command.

Deadlift
357.5x1
396x1
412.5x0

I had planned to try for about 425lb but after having a tough time with 396 I knew that wasn't going to happen. Bombed with 412.5lb.

My main goal for this meet was to total at least 900lb and I ended up totaling 924lb. Not sure when I'll have the opportunity to do another meet, but my goal for the next one will be to do at least 950lb total and to compete in the 90kg division. I had ended up competing in the 100kg division (I came in right at 215lb).

Well done sir. I'm hoping I get to try my hand at a meet in the near future.

Thanks for the encouragement, Scotty. I've got to start getting serious again.
