Aube's Powerlifting Log

[Aubelift]

Hi I'm Aube,

I'm on a quest to being the strongest lifter I can be. I'm lifting in the IPF and I'm a 83 kg lifter and soon to be 93kg. I've been dealing with a lot of injuries and set-backs in the past few years but my total kept increasing over the meets I've been in. My current ''long term'' goal is to hit 1500 lbs(680+ kg) at 2017 CPU Nationals which seems like a realistic goal for me.

Currently in my off-season and my next meet is in November 15 for Quebec Provincials.

My YouTube channel is Aube Powerlifting

In the off season I'm working mostly with lift variations which reduce the overall intensity. It's a good mental deload for me so when I start my next prep in 13 weeks I'll be fresh physically and mentally to put my 100% effort into it.

Bw: ~ 183
OHP:
4/3/3/3/3/3x160

Paused HB Squat:
6/6/6/5x285


+assist (Chins/Bulgarian split squats/Hammer curls/External rotations)

First training in 10 days. I just got back from the gymnastic camp and my shoulders are a bit messed up. I managed to keep my bw at 183 for the whole week (last year I lost 15 lbs in 8 weeks). Increasing the volume of lower body days for the next 4 weeks. Heavy CG bench tomorrow

Neat gym

Will you be competing at the Commonwealth Champs in Vancouver this november? A few from our team should be there, sadly not myself though.

Thanks!

Nah I'm not strong enough...yet. I had spare on all my lifts last meet so I know I'm in the right direction.
My next meets are:
-Provincials in November (17 weeks) and my goals are 215/147.5/257.5 = 620 kg/1366 lbs @ 83 kg/183 lbs
-June goals: 640 kg/1410 lbs @ 93 kg
-Unknown meet
...
-2017 Nationals

I'd say after 2017 Nationals in 21 months I think I'll start being competitive for big comps like this one. Plan is 1500 @ 93 kg by then. After that I might cut to 83 but leaner than now.

Got all the reps I needed which I couldn't do 3 and half weeks ago. I'm glad lifts variations are improving even if it seems light compared to my comp lifts.

[AKGetsStrength]

Sounds like you've got a pretty solid plan, I'm sure you'll go a long way. I hold a flicker of hope of qualifying to do an international meet, but the people in front of me are far in front and the crop of juniors behind me is sick as well... So i'll just hold on as long as I can until I hit masters

Same haha. A lot of strong lifters in front of me but I'm gonna grind for a few years and we will see!

Felt like puking during this workout. I'm never gonna eat skittles gain before weight training.

[NorthStrong]

Skittles are the GOAT preworkout, you need to stick with them.

The OHP was really hard like RPE 9.5-10 each set but it's definitely a rep/set Pr.
