    O_RYAN's Preparation for Sept 14th SPF Meet in Houston

    As the title says, I will be preparing to do my first powerlifting meet on Sept 14th (the meet isn't schduled yet, but my training partner knows the organizer and said it will be a go). I started training at a hardcore bodybuilding/powerlifting/strongman gym up here in Houston and I love it. My intentions for moving to this gym was to get to the next level in powerlifting. After the first day there, I teamed up with a powerlifter that know quite a bit and was willing to take me under his wing. We have access to a monolift (from westside barbell), an EliteFTS competition bench, a reverse hyper machine from Westside, competition bars, chains, and a GHR among a lot of other great equipment.

    I'll be posting my training along with other stuff moving up to the meet. I'm currently around 188#s right now, so I feel I'm just going to compete in the 181# class rather than the 198# class.

    Current Maxes:

    Squat: 525
    Bench: 325 (following comp rules)
    Deadlift: 585

    Glad to have you guys on board.

    Great numbers for a 181er lifting raw. I'm definitely in. Have you dropped bodyweight a bit? I thought you were around 2 bills. If you start lifting with some knowledgeable guys, don't be surprised if your bodyweight goes up with your PRs. Once I started lifting heavier again, I found myself starving all the time and had to up my calories to feed the muscle. Next thing I knew, I had put on a few pounds.
    All advice given is for entertainment value only. And it's free. Take it for what it's worth.
