Had a great day competing today at the APF IL state meet. Entered 242 raw classic (weighed in 234.4).

Wound up going 9/9 with all white lites:


551/600/617.2 squats

341/363/380.2 bench

529/600/633.7 dead

1631.1 total



My deads this cycle totally sucked so that’s why my opener was so low on them. Turns out I just suck at deadlifting in the gym and as soon as it matters, I instantly know how to again. Walked away with prs on all lifts and a nice 61 total PR. Couldn’t have asked for a better day!


Now to finally bench 400.

Nice job right there and 9/9! Yeah go work on that bench but you're not going to win or lose on that bench. After that massive squat, it's going to be hard for most to close the gap on you. And if they do, good luck to them on the pull.

It was a nice feeling at this meet that I was the last raw 242 guy in my flight for squats and the actual last lifter for deadlift. The only person putting more weight up than me in squats was an equipped lifter. Bench there was a few 400 benches in there but I honestly don't know if anyone even got those or not. I made out with 1st either way so I'm happy.

I'm going to out-bench you. You'll smoke me at deads and squats until the end of time though. Haha
