bluto · Apr 22, 2006

I am now a day after my 2nd ever 3 Lift meet. Had a really good competition over here in New Zealand. A few records made with a guy in the under 100kg class deadlifting 314.5kg and a couple of others I cant remember.

I really loved the whole scene and atmosphere of a fairly big powerlifting event and it made me hungry for more. Squated 320kg and failed on 340kg(went xtra deep and had the power out of the bottom but lost my balance and kind fell back). Benched 215kg and failed on 227.5kg(locked it out no problem but got done for sinking into my chest 2 deep). Deadlifted 320kg and was stoaked.

Kant wait to break the 900kg mark now tho its gona be a while maybee the end of the year in a novice meet.

Nice Job..!

You now officially have the competing drive....You'll also learn alot from the bigger boys,but your total is very impressive...I had to break out the calculator...

Did you use a 16 week cycle..?

Fully got the Bug

Thanks Guys,
I cant wait to start hitting bigger weights in the gym now. I will be doing 2 bodybuiolding shows in Sept & Oct, so back into growing at this stage. After October I want to target a Powerlifting meet somewhere and try to break 900kg. Im still not sure which direction to go in longterm, must admit powerlifting is much more fun and addictive.

do them both bro i u love BB. do ur PL meets and gear training starting sept or oct. then jan or feb start BB cutting up for summer. u can still grow training like a PL. In fact, i am struggling to keep my weight down even on lower cals than ever because of the training load. my calves are as big as ever and i havent done a calf raise in almost a year!!! and i had to work hard to get them. arms the same way... and i havent curled in almost a year either!! with specific training i know they will really start growin again. i got a couple more meets at 198, 1 at 181, then im on up to 220 and 242s.
