    My first inclination is to say you should train the Squat, Bench Press, and Deadlift.

    Hi Matt - same here 8 weeks out. My 0,2 ct:
    If you are still Novice - check Andys article on first PL Meet (eventhough it is your second meet already).
    Intermediate: Depends on your current Training. I did 8/5/2 and transitioned now to 5/3/1. Another option would have been KSC for Raw PL, since I trained in a split before, but I did not want to change things up so much. If you do this, plan a week for deload repeating the old 8/5/2 weights as 5/3/1
    If you are on full body, then Texas Method is IMO the way to go. There is tons of info how to use on the boards.

    good luck!
