Decided I am going to compete again @ the IPA Christmas Carnage meet on December 4, so I had to start training a few days earlier than planned in order to get my whole training cycle in before the meet (only about 12 weeks away). I will be focusing on building up my triceps to improve my bench, and working on my lower back and grip work for my deadlift.

9/11 IPA State Meet
Squat Attempts: 625, 665, 705 (state record)
Bench Attempts: 435 (red light due to technicality), 435 on second attempt, missed 465 on third attempt
Deadlift: 635, missed 665 on second and third attempts, 635 opener was new state record
Total: 1775
It was a mixed day for me. I was happy with my squats... 705 felt easy, I will get alot more next meet I'm sure. My bench was terrible... I felt like I had no push at the top. This is very frustrating, since the bench press is usually a strong lift for me. The deadlift bar at the meet sucked... it had no grip... and while 665 came off the ground easily, I couldn't hold onto it to finish the lift.

9/1 ME Bench
Shirted bench press w/ 120 lbs band tension (doubled monster minis):
355 for 1 rep
missed 375 for 1 rep (shirt slipped out of position)
Incline dumbell press: 100lb dumbells for 2 sets of 12 reps
Tate press: 45lb dumbells for 3 sets of 12 reps
Dumbell row: 100 lb dumbell for 3 sets of 8 reps
Hammer curls: 55lb dumbells for 3 sets of 8 reps
Workout time: 1 hr 25 mins
I felt very tired today, and my bench presses sucked. 355 plus bands felt way too heavy, and my shirt slipped out of position on my attempt @ 375 plus bands. I probably could have made another run at that weight, but I felt like I had no energy or focus, so I called it quits. I hope 8 days is enough time to recover before the meet. This is the first bad bench day I have had this training cycle, and it couldn't come at a worse time (1 week out from the meet).
