Meet Recap It was a hot day and I was fired up! Highs and lows all over in this meet. Squats: Got called high on 507 so had @notmrsdonjohnson help me with depth and secured my first 500+ squat in the books. Bench: Took 385 for an easy opener and the pressed 402 to secure my first 400+ bench in the books. Took 424 for my 3rd and got red lights. I think I could take this again in November and get it. Deadlift: Ran late coming back and had to throw my opener. @notmrsdonjohnson coming in clutch again and helped me warm up in 2 sets, then took 435 for an easy opener and took my token 457 for the day. Guess I'll have to wait until November to beat my 474. Despite some set backs I still took home the gold for the 220 equipped open division. 5/9, 11lb meet PR on squat, 39 meet PR on bench, 1366 total, 33lb meet PR for total. Still chasing 1400 in November. Extra special thanks to @jennmxiong for supplying extra snacks and drinks, recording, keeping me fed, and running all the way back home to get my singlet because I'm dumb and forgot it. Thank you @upa_events_ and @billypress for another great meet! #madtownfitness #professionalidiot #powerlifting #squat #bench #deadlift #sumodeadlift #equippedlifting #gearedlifting #rawiseasy #2fat #2furious #upa (at Grand River Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRhJ-i3Au-t/?utm_medium=tumblr

Max Effort Lower Week 11 Max Effort Deadlifts Found me a decent opener for the meet, then did 90% of that for a double. Squats after at 3×5 in suit bottoms. Sunk these deep even at moderate weight so feeling good about doing the same on my attempts. #madtownfitness #professionalidiot #powerlifting #rawiseasy #squat #monolift #passiontrumpseverything #minihulk #2fat #2furious #deadlift #doughnutsanddeadlifts #sumodeadlift #equippedlifting #gearedlifting #maxeffort #maxeffortmethod (at Madtown Fitness) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ9zh-sglmL/?utm_medium=tumblr

Max Effort Upper After a long absence I finally got back in a bench shirt. Took the super katana for a ride with a 4 board bench from my new foam block. Got up to 505 and for safety reasons cut it there. Then took the shirt off and hit 325×3×10 raw to a 4 board. Feels good to be moving over 500 lbs again but let's see in the coming weeks how many boards I can get that off of. #madtownfitness #professionalidiot #powerlifting #rawiseasy #boardpress #bellyup #itwasagoodday #minihulk #2fat #2furious #bench #nonegativity (at Madtown Fitness) https://www.instagram.com/p/CORN0mpgqGs/?igshid=118e1bcsw7cvh
