Talo's training and video log

[tiramisu]

I'm pretty sure I have 1500 in me in the next couple of years at 220 if I stay fairly lean. I can push just around 1100 now with my bum shoulder, 315, 385, 425 (1125). The squat/dead are a lock. My left shoulder might only give me 290 this week.

.... But I'm not terribly strong. I know one young fellow, the kid I want to beat from the university football team @ 210 who could definitely put up 1400 and he's not a powerlifter by any stretch.

I know and that's why I'm pumped

The Canadian record is 175kg , 125kg , 185kg = 485kg total ( 1067 lbs )

The World record on the other hand is much different with a 1695lb total.

You have to remember there is NO gear , only a belt and this is a drug free event.

I think in Canada more people go to other fed's like the CPU which is also drug tested , but I think they let people use wraps and suits .

For the 110kg class no one has even set a record yet. Population is going to play a huge part in this.

I've done a 500 squat , 550 dead ( my grip sucks) and 350 bench before - All raw. However I wont be close to those at this meet , but for World's in October I should be back or higher.

[natenator]

ok the drug free part would slip me up a bit lol

great lifts for drug free!

[Talo]

Yeah I thought I would get a couple in before I make a switch to the darkside

more fore recovery reasons when I do go on. Age is not on my side here , lol '

In the wonderful world of powerlifting there's tested and drug free. I would have a very hard time believing the majority of heavyweight/superheavyweight elite power lifters are anything close to drug free.

I like to believe the olympic lifters are "mostly" drug free because it makes me feel better than thinking they are all cheaters.

Squat is slowly coming up , got stuck at 385 last week.

Off to the dr to get my blood results.

[Talo]

Test results.

HDL - 1.27
LDL - 5.24
Total cholestrol - 7.06 ( said normal is 5.2 )
dr said cholesterol is to high , then I asked about the hdl/LDL levels and that's when he gave me those results , he wouldn't have even given them to me. I think the ratio is ok , but I need to look something up.

Didn't get my testosterone levels back . I guess they take about a month .

I asked him if I could get a script for clenbuteral , but he didn't know what that was so he googled it ! I just hit him up with the exercised asthma , but he didn't like that idea.

Really all I wanted was my testosterone levels. Oh well I will call them back in about 2-3 weeks.

.

, he wouldn't have even given them to me. .

Wander why they do that? The same happened to me only i didn't think about asking (first time getting blood work)

[Talo]

Because he's not the best dr I've seen . Once he gave me those two numbers he followed up with " the ratio isint that bad at all, but it's your total that I'm worried about " .

That doesn't make sense to me.
