It will be fine by meet time im sure.. its good if I rest and dont squat heavy for a bit. I actually blame it on the fact that I havnt been doing curls lately 
Its sqaut/bench/dead like always. Even if I tweak my arm on the squats, no big deal because its not bad until the day after. |

I used to be too.. before I deadlifted 500lbs, if it broke the ground, then I had it. But now, breaking the ground is really easy and the lockout seems sooo hard. I think I need to lean back more.

maybe cut out deadlifts next week, and then 2 weeks out, work up to your openers, and then just do some mobility or light stuff the week before the meet?

I feel for you. 530's are so hard. Most of us would love that problem! Probably 6 months from now you'll be saying 600lbs is so hard!  |

Thats more or less the plan. Opening deadlift is around 480 I think.
Im pretty disapointed with the deads today, I figured I woul be hitting 550-560lbs pretty easy. Weight gain does not help my deadlift at all, I think it makes it worse almost. Ah well. |

Ive been chasing 600lbs for what seems like way to long. I will get it, but I dont think its going to be for another 6-7 months. |

You're rowing what I deadlift.
That scares me a little bit.
