Post the vid, thread is silly.

So then you're "not strong enough"...how can you be swayed to compete if you already have pre-conceived notions of what strong enough is.

Yes, compete.

I'm confused...over the last 3 years you've cut down to 4% body fat. You obviously cannot cut/sustain that bf%, so isn't bulk the only option?

Yup to above

Are there any good programs you would recommend specifically for deadlift?

Ya I'm with others, you're in the 14-15% range and I would cut just because you have good size for your weight as is, so get super lean and then evaluate. Also, I'm around your weight and I would be...

So I competed in a meet around a month ago and my deadlift was a PR at 385 and it moved fast. Other competitors said they thought I was good for another 40 pounds as it moved like an opener. The...

I competed in my third meet over the weekend. I competed in the 83kg class weighing in at 82.6kg.

I was a little disappointed in my overall results as I finished with 135/87.5/175(kg)
I got sick...

Ya 1500-1800 for a 185 pound male seems really low.

Yikes, who cares?

The hook grip one? I personally wouldn't but I don't wear stuff like that.

I'm guessing your row is currently low because you don't do them often. Its nearly impossible for a 600 Deadlift to only be able to do 185 for sets of 5. I currently Deadlift high 300s and can row...

Mendoza you're obviously really strong, just curious, is there a reason you try to stay at such a light bodyweight?

Ya it's high by a few inches.

Ya when I initially read this thread, I just assumed it would be moved to the training journal section, since that is exactly what this thread is lol. Are you training for any meets or anything or...

I would think this would be better than a normal meet as you don't have to Deadlift after having squatted and benched etc. Plus your days will be shorter. I would do all 3.

The way the program is run, it's 3 weeks, and then one week of rest before testing new max, so I would just run it 4 weeks out from your meet.

Haha great read, at the two meets I've done, they announced "Bar is Loaded...Name of Person" or something, surprised you just walked up and did it. Nice job tho on all the lifts!!

You'd do well at most random meets as an 18 year old with those numbers. Now go compete and find out.
