| Binging on Pure ****ing Rage Board Sponsor  | Yeah, I'm a broke ass college student, and PL'ing wasn't/isn't my first ambition so I can't buy a new one. But I will heed your advice in the future. Kop-just more strength work for back, training for size never hurt in getting my Dead to where it is, so I may just go with the "if it ain't broke don't fix it mentality" USP Labs 'Board Head Honcho' kse (at) usplabsdirect (dot) com.

might want to do a progressive overload type setup for your weights. normally you want to workup and hit either your first or second attempt your last workout, then take the week off before the meet. | |

| Binging on Pure ****ing Rage Board Sponsor | Oh yeah, well Prog. Overload is actually part of any training I do, so that's covered. I didn't know that last part though, I'll make sure to keep that in mind. Thanks for all the tips. USP Labs 'Board Head Honcho' kse (at) usplabsdirect (dot) com.

| Binging on Pure ****ing Rage Board Sponsor | Long story short....I got fat and cut, so strength went down and no meet. Still got the suit though! |

| Registered User  | What total weight do you feel you need to reach in order to be competitive in powerlifting? Sounds like we are similar in weight, in the 195-200lb range. There are a couple guys at my gym that do powerlifting but they are both so far above my weight class I can not compare myself to them. While you are young and on your way up the fitness/strength curve, I may not have that many more years left to do this at 38. I want to try a competition so I can at least know what it is like. I do not have to win but I do not want to embarrass myself either. So what total weight would you feel you need to hit at 195ish pounds in a push/pull or in a full 3-event meet? |

| Snuggle Club™ Refugee | Mullet, I know in the past i've been able to put a little over 1200lbs total up (raw)...maybe even more like 1300. So I'm just curious as to what the total was at the meet? |

| Registered User | PumpingIron, how much do you weigh? Your numbers are similar to mine. I have never did all three in the same day and I assume that may hurt my results some, but if I take my current max lifts, I am just over 1300. (BP=315, Squat=450 and DL=550). That total is raw since I have never even tried a bench shirt or squat/DL suit, but I do wear a belt and add knee wraps on the heavy squats. Looking at some of the results at the National Championship level, those guys are unbelievable. The guys 200/under are doing 1500 to almost 1800 lbs. That sort of puts me in my place. |

| Snuggle Club™ Refugee | Well I'm about 195 now...when I was putting up those numbers (just about the same as yours) I was probably around 210ish... All i've ever used is a belt... |
