Thanks Everybody. I'd like to open with: S=275 B=225 D=350 2nd attempt: S=300 B=260 D=405 Final attempt: S:325 B:275 D:425 Not too pushy but it is my first meet, so my goal is 9 white lights and no "bombs". My trainer told me not to think about my weight, and that he would take care of that. I told him to rest assurred, that whatever he puts on the bar, I WILL lift. However, I did find out that there are is no one currently holding the World Record in my Division. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm? We'll see how I feel, and how this experience goes. To be honest, I'm being optimistic for the meet, but still a little unsure if this is the path for me. I keep getting mixed feelings from my wife and trainer. It's probably just me being paranoid. I'm hoping that getting this first PL meet under my belt will give me some clarification. Time will tell. NICE! DO IT!

You can do this Frank-keep your mind OFF the record and on lifting the weights!

Well, haven't posted for awhile becuase training has not changed. Squat, bench, deads, HEAVY, speed repeat.
Have been following some of Brad Gillingham's routines with Greg, but we are considering chaning it up after the meets to some Russian Training.
Bought some new squat shoes on Greg's advice. PRO-SST's ($$$$$). They make the difference of night and day with my squat.
My meet is about two weeks away. That means one more week of hard training, then week of rest and then hitting it!

One week until weigh-in at the Iron Horse Classic in Coumbus. Website shows 75 full power competitors and 10 bench only...SO FAR!
Weight is good. Feel good. Last light workout today.
3x5 all lifts light assistance work.
Rest ALL next week (that's gonna be tough!) Taking Wed through Monday off.
Already have a Spa appointment set for a massage the Monday after the meet in expectation of a little soreness!
COUNTDOWN!
