Teen Bodybuilding Forum Big 3 Competition GTFIH!!

Okay, I posted earlier about having a competition around here, and ya'll all seemed to like the idea. the consensus was between bench, deadlift, and squat, so I figured why not do all 3! And As to not interfere with peoples programs who don't want to max, u can hit each lift for 3-5 reps (or just 1RM), and we'll run a calculator to figure out your max, if everyone's okay with that.

Also, I PM'd a mod about it, and he's down to MOD REP at least the top user for each individual lift (not weight class specific)and top 3 total numbers and sticky the thread.

I'll PM more mods and I'm sure other members of the section will stand behind repping the winners, I personally am gonna rep everyone who submits videos, with my poverty reps lol...

Right now I just need to find out who's in on this and what weight you are gonna try competing in. last day to post vids is up in the air right now, but I think September 31 would be a solid date. so you have about 2 months to get it in! If you don't want to compete but would like to judge and know what to look for in the lifts, let me know and I will add your name to the list of judges in the official thread!

once we get enough people to pledge in, we'll take a look at the average weights and decide how many classes we will do. Then set up the thread for the videos!

Everybody is welcome, even if you don't think you'll win, why not try, to give yourself that extra motivation in the gym!

I'll start by saying it.

INNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

awesome! in at 145 lbs im guessing?

**comps** · 08-02-2012, 07:10 PM

IMO you picked a God awful date for the comp.

Why? People are currently cutting / coming off a cut and much weaker.
There isn't much progress capable of being shown in two months.

**davidhogan34** · 08-02-2012, 07:24 PM

to all worried about not winning, I am the epitome of not winning...haha

my bw will be around 180, I took the last 1.5 years off training, and I just got back in the gym. best lifts were 195 bench, 295 for 3 squat, and 355 for 2 DL. don't know if ill get past that for this comp. but im gonna try and I will post videos of my lifts.

**l2evolution** · 08-02-2012, 07:26 PM

u can do it whenever. 2 months is the cut off though.

**lukebaumy94** · 08-02-2012, 07:37 PM

I say we wait until Christmas. People will be done cutting by let's say, September? Then, everybody has a good three and a half months to make some solid gains.

well if we did that we should have some random comps in between then. like 20 rep squats or 20 rep bench, just to keep people motivated.

**bradleytjohnson** · 08-02-2012, 07:52 PM

What weight classes are there????? I wont win, but it would be kind of fun!

**comps** · 08-02-2012, 07:59 PM

I vote we make it a competition in terms of bodyweight.
Rep the top 5-10 of each individual lift to make up for the lack of weight classes

**lazymman345** · 08-02-2012, 08:06 PM

I'm in even though lifts are terrible. It should be good motivation to lift hard tho.

**chrisimundo** · 08-02-2012, 08:12 PM

kc wins

**davidhogan34** · 08-02-2012, 08:15 PM

gonna get a headcount over these next few days of whos in and go from there. originally planned for 135, 150, 165, 180, 195, 210 +...but their might not be enough comptetiors for that many classes.

I weigh 175lbs and bench 300. 300/175 = 1.714. Whoever has the biggest number there wins. No weight classes that way.
(Manlets get an unfair advantage on squats/bench, but manmores get an unfair advantage on deadlifts)

**M0hi** · 08-02-2012, 08:38 PM

INNNNNNN

Currently sitting at 163lb in 1st week off cut/start of bulk
Bench 140 3x5
Squat 195 3x5
Deadlift 245x5

I'll hopefully weigh in at 168, more likely 170ish.
Going for
Bench 225x1 (selling myself short here)
Squat 350 (should be easy with dat der muscle memory)
Deadlift 425 (bit of a reach)

Are we gonna do it where there is are separate comps for each lift and another comp for overall total.
Also, i forget if Martyn is in my weight class, if so. My angus is NOT peppered.

Also for maxes what are allowed? I want to assume at least a belt.
Chalk idc
I think straps are unfair though. Just cus I don't feel like buying them lol.

**comps** · 08-02-2012, 08:46 PM

Sleeves, chalk, and belt is what should be allowed.

No straps or wraps.
