If your seeing results then your good to go. If not then you know you gotta switch things up a bit. Thats what i have to do for my DL training. Squat and bench or moving just fine, DL is lagging for me. I dont really follow any kind of program, just kind of do whatever. Might not be the best...
Well i like to use it for over load training. So normally like tonight for instance, i went up and hit a 335 for 3 raw (just belt and wrist wraps) That was somewhat hard for me. So then i threw the slingshot on and hit that 365 for 3 reps. Which my max at my last comp was a 345 for a single...
I got videos of the last 2 sets on my FB Athlete page. "James Fuller - Powerlifter" I filmed with my phone 2nite so for some reason its not letting me upload them on youtube. so if you want to see them you can go like that page or just click on em and watch em
I worked out at a "real" gym today, so i did stuff i dont normally get to do.

yea they were all high imo. theres a few that i could get away with, with a few judges. but overall id rather sink deeper and not have any question on whether i hit depth or not. just dont want to hit atg in a meet tho. Reason y the weight was so much more was because i squatted at my training...
thanks man, yea i get really shakey when i start getting heavy. my set up with lighter weights is around 3-5 seconds before the first rep. when i hit heavier its upwards of 8-12 secs. Glad im not sinking to deep anymore, but at the same time id rather sink to deep and have to go lighter just to...

Things that I see i still need to work on:
-initial setup/walkout
-flexibility- starting to lose my flexibility and i think im low enough when i really am not
-more speed, need to...
the 270 felt fine. Im switching back to conventional in training until after my next comps then will switch it back and forth. 4 weeks of training left.
Also my strength level is way stronger at my training partners place than it is at my house. and he has better equipment. i only have a rogue bruiser bar and an old texas power bar. he has a bunch of different bars. DL bar, Squat bar, Safety Squat bar, Cambered bar, etc...
i can go for a while on the x2 and x3 on squats. If i hit the x5 stuff i usually have to take a little longer break. My all time deadlift pr is 429. But i honestly struggle most of the time in training to just hit 405 for a single. then come comp time when im all rested and everything 405 is...

yea i get what your saying. im going off whatever powerliftingwatch.com says. theyre rankings havent updated since my last meet. but i would be #16 overall in raw w/ wraps. without wraps my squat maybe drops around 40lbs but still would be considered elite. I base myself off of vashon perryman...
I still wouldnt consider that elite. Ive been doing powerlifting for barely over a year. theres no way i should be entitled to even consider myself elite in anything. I think the standards need to be raised. Actually have something to work for.
