5.28.11 Mini Meet Write Up

Weigh In:
177.7 lbs (14 more than what I weighed at the February meet)
181 weight class

Squat:
295-3 whites
315-1 white 2 reds, easy attempt, but bad depth
315-3 whites easy, had I hit my second attempt I would've gone for 330 on my 3rd and I'm pretty sure I would've gotten it, but I didn't want to use a 4th attempt because I wanted to save it for deadlift. Good call.

Bench:
185- 3 whites
195- 3 whites, but it took a lot out of me to the point I knew I wasn't going to hit 200 paused
200- 3 reds failed at about a 1.5 inches off the chest

Deadlift:
365- 3 whites
395- 3 whites PR
405- 2 whites 1 bullshit red for dropping it although video confirms I controlled it down PR

(not counting for the meet)
415- 3 whites (30 pound PR)

The deadlift PR was really nice to get because at the beginning of the year I had set a goal of 200 bench, 300 squat, and 400 deadlift. Even though the 200 I hit was touch 'n' go, I'm proud that I met my goal

I also wanted to thank everyone again for the recognition at dinner. Powerlifting has given me so much, and I am confident that once I adjust to the hectic schedule of law school, I will spending my free time in the gym to get stronger and once again beat Danny.
