You are an amazing example to others not only for your dedication and strength but also for your compassion, humility, and willingness to share your knowledge with others.

    The day started off iffy - gotta love deads - they made it a very successful meet for me.

    That's why they say "the meet doesn't end til the bar hits the floor". Congrats on a great 1st meet. You surely learned a LOT today about how different a competition is vs maxing out in the gym. The energy level gets off the hook. I was looking at some old videos of me lifting in meets and my heart was pounding just watching, knowing what I had gone thru on the platform.

    Give yourself a week off, even though you didn't lift a lot of volume, you will probably feel like a truck ran over you the next day or 2.

    Again, big congrats!

    Thank you. It was a huge learning experience. I am going to post about it in more detail, but everyone was so encouraging and nice. I seemed to use the energy for my deadlifts as those kind of came out of no-where. I had to pull the 325 only a few minutes after the 315 and I was still shaking from that one. I am definitely doing another one.

    Not feeling too bad at the moment, but I was on the ball last night and used the recuperating powers of a pint of BnJ - magic.

    You will see me look towards the front slightly to my left as soon as I put it down to check that I got white lights.
