Is anyone going to be attending the Aug 29th London, Ontario powerlifting comp? I am competing, just wondering if there will be any friendly faces there from the board?!

I love that there is a powerlifting/ strongman section now! It's about time!

What are your openers? Goals for the meet? The 2nd meet, I find, goes a lot easier than than the 1st...

I think I'm going to open with a 205lb squat, 90lb bench and maybe a 220 or 225lb deadlift.

I'm hoping for a 220 or 225lb squat with only a belt, 100- 105lb bench, and 240-250lb deadlift. My main goal is to qualify for provincials.

I have definitely learned from my mistakes at the 1st meet with my deadlift and bench, and I think it's going to go alot smoother now that I have my first meet under my belt.

I'm very excited, and can't wait to push myself beyond my "limits"!

Metalchick qualified for the provincials without being a pound off.


The gym it was held at was ****ing awesome. It had more oly bars and squat racks then I have ever seen in a gym. It even had a Reverse hyper, A tlas stones and 2 logs!


I will let her fill in the details though.

Overall, it was a pretty good comp.

I qualified for the provincials with the exact total that I needed.

I was surprised and happy to see alot of raw female lifters in the comp!

Anyway, here are my numbers:
Squat: 90kg, failed twice at 95kg :( These are the first squats I have ever failed!

Bench: 42.5 kg

Deadlift: 105kg, went for 112.5kg, a +7lb pr, but didn't get it!

Total: 237.5 kg
