Starting Prep for PL Meet

[Darkness]

Did arms tonight
Olympic Bar curls supersettd w/ skull crushers
165x10/12, 175x10/12, 185x8/12, 6/12
DB curls (85lbs) w/ close grip bench (405)
8/10, 8/10, 7/10, 6/10

Then did some wrist curls.

You did DB curls with 85lbs?

[bufbiker]

Yeah. I tried the 95's but was cheating on the first couple of reps so I stopped and went down to the 85's.
Had a great pump afterwards. Felt like my muscles were going to rip through the skin.
I actually took my shirt off, which I never do in public, and did some posing in the mirror after my work out. I looked pretty amazing. Abs popping out nicely. Looked like a body builder I hate to say.

I looked back over your lifts, and I watch some pretty accomplished PLers at my gym training equipped, and the two guys here in your weight class are doing just over what you are doing raw, and have trained with some of the best of the best for many years. So Buf your numbers are impressive for sure.

We'll see in February.

Started 100mg var today. 50 in the am and 50 in the pm.
Trained legs.
Squats - warm-ups, 545x5, 585x1, 675x1, 725x1 (may not have been legal squat, but pretty close)
Back hurt pretty bad in left hip area. I think from dead lifts Tuesday.

I also did some leg extensions, leg curls and calf raises to force more blood into the legs.

With whom is it affiliated? in IPA meets for example, you just compete pro and it is assumed you are enhanced and all are happy to have you there.

Powerlifting is an Olympic event? I thought it was still only clean & jerk and snatch. When did PL become an event? Damn, I'm feeling old to not know that!lol

[bufbiker]

USAPL. Guys with the best lifts, and totals get to compete for spots on the olympic team is my understanding, as I read it in the rules and regs for the meet.

[Darkness]

IS there an APA meet around? Might be the best fit for you.

[bufbiker]
