Powerlifting log

Starting a new log here, had the other deleted. Been training for about 7.5 years total, did my first powerlifting meet in 2006. I'm getting ready for a meet in October now.

That epic thread is gone!??!

Well, here's to a new era of training for Pom Pom! You've made huge strides since I remember first being on this board. You've grown into a legit power lifter.

hey bro.. where you doing your meet in October? mine is the 6th.

Yes, it's gone from here... I did save a copy to 3 different hard drives for my own reference though... I can email you a copy if you'd really like one, lol. Also if you'd like to know how to download 200+ web pages that belong to a forum thread I can tell you as well, takes about 30 seconds to set up, then a just a few minutes for it to download. I'm not sure what constitutes "legit", lol. As long as I stay injury free and get "comfortable" with the gear, I'll be alright. A 1700 total is my current goal, other than that, an Elite total and eventually 700+ deadlift would be the next ones, but gotta take one step at a time, I have to pull 600 first, lol.
