You’ve got 1500 in you. Just depends on when you want to let it out.
I agree, 1500 is there.
Thank you for the positive support biker and Crippler.
Have been feeling a little stressed out so I went light today.

Continuing on with limited lifting pre-meet to give myself more recovery and concentrate on form and execution. I’ve been feeling fairly extreme muscle soreness in various areas which has been affecting my performance.
Tonight was an okay lifting night and for most part on schedule.

A full week for mental preparation. You’re ready physically.
So tonight I had a bit of revelation. Lifting was less than what I expected. My goals have changed for my meet next Saturday.

My theory is that walking at least 13 miles a day, my lawn business work, and intense lifting has hindered me advancing higher with my maxes for the moment. Goals for the meet at present are: Squat-570 lbs; Bench 330 lbs; Deadlift-570 lbs. I don’t think a 1500 lbs total is possible until I change my daily activities.
Hmm which is 1470. Think positive and let game day roll out the way it will. Might surprise yourself…
Do what you feel that day. I think 1470 in a meet would be great.
You’ve posted those lift numbers before, along with your extra curricular stuff.
More .02…after a de-load week, just from lifting of course, I see a Sling shot effect from the rest coming for meet day!!
Try not to get to bored this week 
I would say you for sure have the squat and probably a lot more. Just think nine for nine.
Thank you to all for your support and encouragement. Forgot to post yesterday.
