First *real* meet! Including high school meets, this would be my 6th meet and the one I learned the most from.

Ended up with a 🥇 medal in 82.5kg Junior (20-23) and went 7/9 on attempts. I went into this meet not expecting a placement. I mean, I don’t have a coach and have taken weeks off because of different injuries and whatnot. Not looking for your attention and sorry’s lol. I’ve also lifted more than this and there only being one other person in this age div. also makes me feel kinda undeserving. Also could’ve done more on bench today.

Numbers:
Squat - 187.5 / 413
Bench - 120 / 265
Deadlift - 197.5 / 435
Total: 505 / 1113
Expected total: 520 / 1146

Thanks to @clayhoeksema and @faith.xvii for being my handlers at separate times
Also congrats to Liam @skyliftscircles for best Sub-Junior total by @imjustisg

Yikes! Something to consider is a double hamstring injury during a few of the 12 weeks prior to today. This caused my deadlift to be significantly lower than what it used to be (around 467lbs prior to injury 2-or-so months ago. Bench has skyrocketed since last mock meet. For squat, this is about what I expected. I need to get over the fear of using my hamstrings.

Numbers:
Squat - 440.8lbs (200kg)
I was gonna go with 335lbs but I really wanted the yellow.

Bench - 264.6lbs (120kg)
2 red plates! So happy about this. Last mock meet I was still on a red and yellow (there’s a blue plate in between the red and yellow for those that don’t know)

Deadlift - 436.5lbs (198kg)
This is where the struggle has been. I’m going to properly make the change over to sumo again, learning everything I can about it to safely make the switch and *properly* pull sumo.

Last HS meet ended with 1st place again🥇! Today’s total was 482.5kg / 1063.7lb and I went 9/9 on attempts, while also coming 3rd overall for male lifters. I felt HORRIBLE this morning with so many things wrong, and everything felt super heavy. I also didn’t know I was competing until the day before as I was told I wasn’t gonna get in… this prep was also super horrible lol.

Squat - 172.5kg / 380.3lb (33lb meet PR)
Bench - 107.5kg / 237lb (17lb meet PR)
Deadlift - 202.5kg / 446.4lb (33lb meet PR)
DOTS score - 326.61

The bench was literally for funzies, I didn’t think I was gonna get it and i originally planned on 230lbs like I did last meet but went for it as i knew I had 1st place anyways. I was so fatigued by deadlift, I planned on 210kg / 463lb.
I will continue competing. by @imjustisg

New weight class and first place in it🥇. I never expected to even get a placement considering this is a new weight class that I’ve spent only a few weeks in.

Ended the day with a 445kg/981lb total. I decided to include the 3rd attempt of bench as in my eyes, it counts. That would’ve make it a 105kg/231lb bench if it counted. I also could’ve added 2.5kg/5lbs to my deadlift, but decided to play it safe.

Numbers:
Squat: 157.5kg (347.2lbs)
Bench: 100kg (220.4lbs)
Deadlift: 187.5kg (413.3lbs) by @imjustisg

3rd meet got me a 2nd place in the 74kg weight class! I went a perfect 9/9 on attempts with 27 white lights. This was a harder prep with me having to cut weight in a short span of time, with decisions of me going up to 83kg or staying in 74kg. I can finally drink eat food again. The numbers I had for attempts ended being much easier than when I was figuring out my attempts a few days before, leading to me being able to have a higher total if I pushed more, but at the end of the day it still wouldn’t have put me at 1st. Totalled 405kg/892lbs.

Squat: 137.5kg/303lbs
Bench: 92.5kg/203lbs
Deadlift: 175kg/385lbs

I should’ve pushed for +2.5kg squat, +2.5kg bench, and +2.5kg deadlift by @imjustisg
