Fuck! 352lbs nice!!!! That's a huge PR man congrats!
Did you use a belt?
Dammit you've squatted more than I have raw now!!!(I failed 160kg in like March or something) That's it! I'm squatting 162.5kg this Sunday!!!!
Also I don't know what your thing with doing "something" is all about, I reckon doing nothing is just as good as lifting pink dumbbells : why not do "something good"?
don't sweat it about missing a few training days. I missed a week when i went to boston, but came back, and started hitting it hard again, and haven't really lost a step (the first few workouts back were a bit rough, but that's usually the way it is). It was a good mental break for me, and i suspect it will be for you as well.
I know a girl who just came back from NO for a week building houses. She said she spend around 8hrs a day w/ drywall and stuff in a hot building. Drink lots of water!

I'm not too worried about the work. I plan on picking up a case of water when we get there, and food like I said, so I should be fine.
I'm being told not to go without bringing a mask though. Like, a painter's mask or something, because of all the mold. Did your friend say anything about that?

I've made some huge mistakes, but they were necessary, because without them I wouldn't have learned anything.

I won't post my training the last two days because I don't have my book near me and because I don't feel like it.
I benched 202x3, failed 220 twice because I couldn't control the bar (forearm/elbow problems). Pulled 405 today with ugly form, but at least I got it with the new set up.
Those are the highlights.
Eight hours and I'm gone!
See you suckers later

Thanks guys.

Because of insufficient funding (I'm broke) I won't be going to the competition in Ottawa.
I'll keep training as if I were going, and I'll lift on the 19 in my own gym as if it were a comp. Just to test my numbers I guess.
There's another comp in London (about 2 hours from here) on September 13. My sister lives in London, so this comp is affordable. I'll talk to Trevor and see if I can be ready for that day.

dude, that sucks about the comp. how much money do you need (PM me if you want) maybe we can get a few people together to pitch in. If its just a money issue it wouldnt take much for a few of us to help you out.
Thanks guys.
The deadline to sign up was July 1, so I missed it. I wouldn't be able to take money from you guys anyway, though I do appreciate the offer. Thanks Frankie.

I haven't been in here in a long time...shame on me. Your numbers are looking sweet though. Sucks about the comp, but you'll get one. Just keep working hard dude! Hope your summer is going good.

I got a job yesterday at Moxies. I'm a dishwasher.
It pays 9.50/hour, but I'm told that with the tip pool, it becomes something like 11.50/hour.
All the waitresses/hostesses wear little black dresses.
I don't see a downside.

deadlift
374 x 2
385 x F x a thousand
363 x F - because I tried 385 so many times I think.
308x6
220x5x2 - for speed + to relieve a little anger
I only got 374x1 last week (I think) so x2 is a [lame] PR.
I couldn't move 385, which pisses me off. By the way 374 felt, I should have been able to get 385x2. Not really sure what's going on.

I'm going to see Trevor soon, and see about writing up another program. A longer one this time.
I might push my first competition back to next summer, like I had originally planned on doing.
