How do you guys find local meets?

I am sure I can find meets some where in my state but I am looking for a truly novice section.

Also what are some good weights to be doing before entering.

I am sure I will not be at the weights you guys suggest, but I am just looking to have fun.

By the way I am 190 ish.

[DaTruth1]

I'd say as long as you can snatch 45kg and cj 45kg you're good to go in a competition. Any lower and it might be embarrassing and I am not sure if they even allow the technique plates to be used on a 20kg bar in competition.

got a rogue bar for 125

barely used

went to a non-official high school meet yesterday for fun. my last snatch warmup was the same weight as the heaviest clean and jerk (besides my own).

it was kind of a dick move on my part because the kids didnt know how to do the lifts at all (football players, wrestlers, etc). but a lot of them were stupid and full of themselves so whatevs

Do you think it was beneficial to show them up, let them see what a real lifter looks like, to inspire them? I think that may be a good thing.

[ftwrestler]

can i do a highschool meet? lol

[Keefinator02]

Ha, I think about this everyday. Well maybe not everyday.

I mean they can not be that worried about seeing if these kids are actual in high school. You could just show up with a friend as your coach and say you are from a local high school that no one else is representing.

Hell try middle school.

i actually did inspire a few kids. them actually showing up and sticking with it in my coach's gym is a whole 'nuther can of worms

This is just me being excited, but:
My backsquat has basically stalled at 140kgx2~ for about 7 months. I never feel squats in my legs anymore. Heavier attemps I just can't push through to get it up. My legs are never sore though. My squat routine would basically work up to heavy triples; of various weights.

Today after doing 127kgx3, I decided I wanted to try higher reps, and did 114kgx11.(difficult, but not a 'max' volume) I actually felt like I had to push through this set! And afterwards, my legs were/are actually sore!

Going to be doing a lot more higher rep sets now...hopefully I finally see backsquat progress.

170x10 on back squat this morning. Legs are finally getting their strength back.

soreness means nothing...

sometimes if you stall you may need more hypertrophy to continue improving...

with my training and i am not an o lifter... if i stall at a rep scheme i simply change it and continue... and or the volume... easy... you should never really stall except for dam injuries...

im learning that falling on snatches while strapped will leave you with a 25% chance the bar will try to **** you up with 0 way to avoided it.

If you can't let go of the bar at will then you are using the wrong straps, and that is seriously dangerous.
