    Yeah, I felt like I could have pulled a lot more. Back in the day (yes reminiscing) I pulled 505 when my squat was at 385. Squat is now 365 so I wouldn't be surprised if I had a 450 pound deadlift in...

    Yup, you got good advice. Squeeze your lats and get your shoulders back before starting your pull, chest up, back flat. Keep training!

    I have yet to find a sweet spot for my warmups. Usually I'm not fully warmed up until partly through my second work set. Not ideal for competition... or strong progress for that matter. I'm going to...

    The meet was ridiculous. More to come.

    With the competition 24 hours away I am still recovering from a wonderfully hellish long weekend of climbing. But no excuses!

    I just weighed in at 197.4. Perfect.

    My body is pleasantly destroyed and will be spending this pre-comp week putting itself back together. My girlfriend and I spent the...

    Thanks! I'm hoping so. Gotta keep stretching my hips to make sure that I go well past parallel on my squats.



    Just truckin' along. Thanks for the encouragement!

    Thanks! The truth is that right now I just want the meet to be tomorrow. Prepping has been fun but I'm ready for it, particularly because I know that I'm not going to win anything. (Realistically I'm...

  • Workout #26 - 3/12/13

    Another mishmash of a workout. PRs are hard to track because I have been messing around with the number of reps in each set but I am definitely making progress. After the meet on the 23rd I am going...

    What kind of grip do you use on your deadlifts? I have a strong grip but find that I need to use a mixed grip to feel really strong on my pulls.

    Hell yeah! Don't those angry muscles keep you out of the gym.

    Holy sh*t you're right. Thanks for pointing that out! Yeah!

    My goal in the meet is to hit 1,000. Hopefully I can make it all happen on a day where I'm lifting maximally on all three big ones with...
  • Workout #25 - 3/8/13

    More PRs! After some seriously heavy squats on Tuesday I decided to deadlift and bench press this afternoon, posting solid numbers in both. My deadlift felt particularly strong and I pushed my PR up...

    Mostly eat whatever I want, trying to get 200g protein per day and keep the rest relatively clean. Nothing crazy or particularly strict. At the beginning of this whole thing I was shooting for 3,300...
