I don't get why you're losing so much weight. You're smaller than me now man.
Don't you have two years left as a junior to make elite?
your also taller then me I bet.
i have my goals much higher then elite and extra flab was not helping me move any weight, i have not gotten weaker while loosing weight, but have gotten stronger. My deadlift leverage I actually feel is much stronger.

hip is already feeling good. No injury or anything, i think i just never accounted for the sumo deads using so much more hips then regular deads.
Im doing the sumos with my feet at the plates (or at least within an inch or two), wide stance low speed box squats, and medium wide (width of the squat rack) me squats.. so thats quite a bit of wide stance hip work.
looking forward to using my new bench shirt tomorrow, probally just going to try get alot of reps in it and maybe some good ones.

i think after this contest im going to take a few months, like 4-6 and really really learn the gear and improve all my lifts as much as possible.. maybe ill throw in some strongman stuff for accessory work and see what comes up.

i'm not opposed to doing any sort of strength competition.. oly, pling, strongman, whatever. It all sounds cool to me.

200 more lbs on the deadlift.. now thats what im thinking about now..
it took me 16 months to go from a 500 to a 600bs pull. mind you, i was only training with powerlifting in mind for about 8-10 of those months (oh how i would do things SO much different.. ).
maybe ill worry about just adding 100lbs.
now whats it going to take for 700 to fall? i think its going to go quicker then 5-6 personally, my training is way better now and i actually do deadlifts instead of relying on accessory.

I couldn't get my bench shirt on all the way, my gf was helping all she possibly could but it was not going.. my arms are just a tad big for the shirt (around 17 inches not pumped right now i think). it was sooo damn close. So, the shirt wasn't 'jacked' what-so-ever, infact I wasn't even wearing a belt to hold it down.
going to stretch it out over the next few days + train with some shirted benchers next weekend hopefully.
skipped back work, this workout was 3 hours long.. 1 of those spent just trying to get into the shirt.
it looks like i got attacked by someone with a big knife on my delts/arms/chest because of all the bite marks.. hah.
oh, and the 162.5 hurt like hell.. but it was a pretty easy lift. if i can sort things out 400+ isn't going to be a problem I think. I better sort things out.. i need to go elite
BB squats
..
warmup
..

267.5 x 1
277.5 (612ish) x 1

circut (3x through)
side bends 105lbs x 10e
pulldowns 200lbs (or so it says) x8e
hanging leg raises x 10
roman twists x 10
went alright i guess.
trying to get my girlfriend to post her training on her own log here.. hopefully she wil.

Do ittttttt.......
you really should get a camera dude! not only for filming and posting on here, but just for your own analysis. You pick up a lot of things by watching videos over again that you, or your training partners couldn't catch in the few seconds the lift took. Plus, digital cameras are cheap now.

Damn, Frank. Are you SURE you're human? To be totally fair, though, I'm going to give at least a partial hat tip to all those poor all-you-can-eat buffets you've decimated in helping you become even more ridamndiculously strong.
