I’ve been keeping a log for years in various places and thought I’d start a new one here since it’s the start of a new cycle.
I’ve been competing since 2008. My most recent meet was this past Friday. I think it’s somewhere between 25 and 30 meets now. I typically compete at 57kg in the M2 age division. I’ll be 52 on Friday. On Friday I competed at 63kg in our Provincial Championships mostly because I just couldn’t be bothered to cut down.
I was very happy with the meet results. I weighed in at 58.8. The only thing that felt unusually strong (for me) going into the meet was squats and I ended up with a 5.5kg PR and an M2
national record.
Bench was bench and I was happy enough given I’ve been having issues with my shoulder since last May.
I wasn’t certain at all about deadlifts. It’s my strongest lift and I pulled up to my opener a few weeks out and it felt just okay at the time. However, the meet bar has a lot more flex in it than our texas PL bar and I often end up doing better.
