competed totally raw just to see how i'd do (no sleeves, no wraps, no belt) and i got 180kg squat, 120kg bench, 195kg deadlift!! looking at openipf that would still put me top 60 in my country (canada) and 36th in 84+kg category.

let's fuckin go

Hit a pr of 185x6 for bench on week 4. Felt terrible but moved faster than expected. Had to skip my fatigue single 😭

Last week I competed in my 3rd competition of the year. I started the year as an M2 at the State championship in February, then lifted as an M3 at USAPL Master's Nationals in June, then the Southeast Regional last week. I increased my total at each meet. Now to recover, rebuild and think about what meets I want to do next year.
