Thought this might be worthy to post here. On Saturday I was lucky and I guess prepared enough to accomplish a lifetime goal of mine by totalling 2000 along with hitting an 800+ competition deadlift. Going into the meet the only goal was to hit a 2k total however possible, so every attempt was strategic and ended up being executed perfectly which I'm extremely proud of. Ended the day 8/9 with a 770 squat (meet PR), 425 bench (PR), and 805 deadlift (PR) with a close miss at 825.
I have a deadlift only meet this Sunday in my hometown of Rochester, NY so I'm taking this whole week off and won't be cutting weight. Not sure what to expect, I think a week off should be enough to be fully recovered but either way I'll be shooting for a PR. If anyone has any experience with meets back to back weeks I'd love some feedback on how it went for ya. Since it's just a deadlift only I'm not too concerned but would like to be 100% for it.
I'm so happy with how the day went and it feels amazing to finally take down a goal that has seemed so far away for so long. Thanks for watching!

Damn thats some strong lifting. Congrats on 2k. Attempt selection looked pretty solid. How much did you cut to make weight?

Awesome man congrats on the 2K! I see you were in Buffalo Central Terminal. Building is amazing isn't it? Wish I could've made it to the meet. I'm just a little north of Buffalo. Next time if I see it in time I'll try to make it

Sorry to have missed it! Thanks for posting the vids. You're a hell of a lifter and from my experiences with you super humble. Good luck this Saturday!

2000 is a great deal.
You have two choices. You can look like that guy who is all shredded or the swollen dude who is big as a truck. Can't have both. Pick now.

Only 9-10lbs. Really not a fan of making big cuts, huge cuts just adds another variable for something that could go wrong. I've seen 20+lb cuts and even if they gain it all back in 24 hours your muscles don't always get back to 100% as far as performance goes.Originally Posted by Rags85
I just did a water cut and made weight pretty easy, didn't have to sauna or anything and was still sweating when I got to weigh ins. It worked out pretty well
Thanks brother hope you do too!Originally Posted by WolfRose7
Yeah man it's an awesome setting! Obviously no AC so I was a little nervous about that but it ended up being cool that day so it wasn't bad at all. Definitely the most interesting venue I've competed at. I was there last year too, not sure if Gene will have the meet again there next year but we'll seeOriginally Posted by SomeDudeAtHome

Strong performance Kyle. Glad they squished it into one session and I got to see it.

VO2Maxima competed at the same meet and hit a 945 total at 132 in wraps... 350/210/385 absolutely insane. She obviously won female best lifter. Legitimate strength that came from a lot of hard work over the years. Becki you should be proud!780/425/805

As a professional and certified arm chair judge and referee in multiple sports I have to disagree slightly.Originally Posted by Batorr
They looked borderline. Which is perfect as long as they get at least 2 whites. I wish I could cut depth better and not sink it so low to sacrifice weight on the platform. I've seen outrageously worse get passed.My Training Journal: http://tinyurl.com/jasons-journal
