    +1

    We can be a little more organized next time around. Timing for me was a little odd on this round as I had a vacation this month, plus I'm training for meet on Dec 1st, so I'm not doing any more 1RM attempts until the day of the meet.

    I should be good for a January "meet" :tongue:

    And first time BB benching last night in ages so might even get a semi decent number haha. Benched 90kg (200ish) at 80kg BW. That was easy but didn't want to push it too far with the shoulder just yet.

    I can go with that - didn't get a chance to video tape my bench, so I'll leave my lifts at the two ones I have videos of. January should be a good time to knock off the holiday dust!

    Deadlift: 500 (didn't video the 525 pull, so I won't claim it here)
    Squat: 525
    Bench (non-videoed): 250

    Ok so Rules:

    1. You have the entire month of January to complete your 3 lifts (we should throw the OHP in for obvious reasons)
    -- a. If you do the OHP as well you are bad *kitten*
    2. You can do as many attempts as you'd like
    3. You must video the lift for it to count (time stamp please)
    -- a. Show us your warm ups if you want
    -- b. Super awesome lifting music is encouraged (possible meta competition there)
    4. Weight yourself at the beginning of the month and end and post the medium of the two.
    5. Gear that is allowed: Belts, Sleeves, Wraps (wrists and knee), Chalk, Ammonia Caps, Any shoe.
    -- a. If someone wants to compete multi-ply they can.
    -- b. No straps allowed
    6. Lifts must be performed to standard powerlifting standards
    a. Pause your bench, just show us it has come to a stop, no touch and go
    -- b. You can receive a lift off but spotter must not touch the bar during lift
    -- c. Squat BELOW parallel
    -- d. No hitching the Deadlift
    -- e. OHP must be strict
    -- f. OHP must end with feet near each other and elbows locked
    7. Brownie points for highest total, Winner decided by __________ (wilks coef?)
    -- a. If we get a good turn out and the winner lives in Cali they get free 10cc of their choice (;

    Am I missing anything?

    Deadlifts looked nice and smooth - and 400+ lbs? NICE.
