I've done one before, but that was with the GPC so I used gear . This is my first raw event.

Do you plan on going to the worlds in Oct ?

I am not sure yet, I would love to but do not know if I will.
Are you?

What total are you going for? I really want at least 1279 so I can be class I, and maybe in a year or so move to master and one day hit elite.

I am hopinh there are some dudes that will lift crazy numbers. It is a 1 day event now weigh in on friday lift saturday.

Man I wish I could be there to cheer you on big guy (stupid weddings). Everything comes together the day of the meet, you are gonna do great!

I think I am going to go to Worlds , as long as I qualify.

I am hoping to get a 1400 total , but that will be a big target ( 500,550,350)

Thanks man. Hopefully its a good event with lots of competition. Still not sure what weight class I'm going for - 110's or 100's .

Nice avatar ,pinky :)

July 5th

DE - Box Squat

8x2@ 265 - 30 sec rest between sets and fast speed . It called for 65% of my 1RM .

Roman Deadlifts

3x8 @ 265

Plate Swings with 25's ( instead of KB's)
3x12

Fallouts -3 sets-

Nothing special about this workout. It was quick and painless :)

Things are changing around from what I've had planned only because I go with what I feel for the day . Since I'm on nights and lucky to get 5hours sleep along with good meals I did a DE squat instead of a ME day.

Why plate swings and fallouts?

Core and stability.
