Results from nationals....
I bombed out on the bench
I did an easy weight cut and weighed in at 217.9
bloated back up to 228 and went to the meet that was not run really that well. Alot of fucked up shit went on in the flights but I'm use to that happening it's the spice of competition. But alot of things went wrong on meet day.
1. Other guys I was going with bailed last minute. Leaving me with no handlers and no help at the meet. Do-able but it sucks.
2. I misloaded the kilo plates in warm up and took 6 reds (55) instead on 45's. So my last raw squat of 585 was 715....ouch
3. Squat had no one to call my depth so failed my opener on 1st attempt for being high with 765. BURIED it on second and then was tired from wrapping own knee and prepping suit and failed at lock out with 804 on 3rd.
4. Bench opened with easy 565, took it out, TOUCHED, threw it up, locked out, got rack command, and then got 3 reds! Was told my right arm LOCKED OUT
after MY LEFT. Fair enough, that is a rule. 2ND attempt same thing. Then on 3rd attempt was going up even, held it to lock out even, then judge said to take it as I was locking out. Crowd booed and so did other lifters...i got pissed but called it a day.
We had World Judges at the meet which is cool because they hammer the rules, and hammered EVERYONE. So it was fair across the board so no complaints from me. Just mad that this is the first meet I have ever bombed at.
What I learned:
1. Never doing a meet without my guys there and a handler.
2. Tren sucks compared to Deca. Tren just stripped fat off me and let me keep some good strength. I always hated tren for this reason, and FOR ME IT TAKES FOR EVER TO KICK IN AND THE STRENGTH GAINS AIN'T THAT IMPRESSIVE, but as trying something new, back to NPP.
3. No more Sustanon. Back to long esters like cyp cause the eod shots killed me. And I always get horrible pip from prop in the sustanon.
4. I will bulk back up and piggy back on the gains made to make my self more efficient while staying closer to 220. I didn't have to do sauna time and it made a difference.
5. Every time I sent my suit or gear in to get refitted I lost more weight by the time it got back....tren.
Now back to a base building workout for the next 8-10 weeks and adding some serious size.
