Road to the THSPA State Championship

Deeznuts · 03-08-2005, 06:38 PM

As per request, I have finally started a new journal that will log my progress until the Texas High School Powerlifting Association's State Championship. I didn't know I was going to be able to compete until later this season so training started late. I am competing in the 123.5 weight class and have made an unreal amount of progress in these past couple of months. Just waiting to see what I can pull off at the state championships.

2005 Competition History:

S&S Invitational - 2nd Place (121.3 pds)
Paris Invitational - 1st Place (123.0 pds)
Region 6 Championships - 1st Place and Regional Champion. Overall 123 winner for all divisions (122.5 pds)

Great workout today. First time to hit my legs since the regional championships. These heavy weights are finally starting to take their tole on all my ligaments. Since Saturday my elbows and knees have been throbbing with pain. With a constant application of Icy Hot and pain relievers i'm able to work through this pain. Though, my elbows really held my chest workout back yesterday.

LEG EXTENSIONS
1x10 (160)
1x6 (180)

Am i missing out here? or shouldnt you be resting?

Yanick · 03-08-2005, 10:07 PM

lb for lb you're probably the strongest person i've seen on here, good luck with your program.

PreMier · 03-08-2005, 10:16 PM

Haha! Welcome back buddy, glad I could get you to start this. Do you supplement with Vit C? Here is a post a while back, when I inquired about it, and its role in colagen synthesis. I think you should, seeing as your complaining of ligament pain

I take 3000+mg a day now, in a divided dose.

It'll be in Houston...that would be awesome

I've only got a couple decent pics so far this season so this would be very cool. Also, I love any support I can get.

I always do this. I only do the lifts i'll use in competition and no other excercises. I've noticed some actual strength loss if I take it too easy this weak so I try to work upto my max on each of the lifts for the first three days of the week. Weird strategy, I know, but it works for me.

Wow...very interesting. I supplemeted with Vitamin C last year and didn't have any joint pains. Will have to pick some more up soon. Thanks for the advice man.

Deeznuts · 03-08-2005, 11:50 PM

Pics of my squats from the regional championships. Sorry about the giant "proof" across all of them. You have to pay to get the actual pictures lol.

PreMier · 03-08-2005, 11:55 PM

Really? That's odd...they're showing up for me. Maybe i'll just post the URLs. Will try to get some better ones posted that my friend took.

PreMier · 03-09-2005, 12:12 AM

After I pasted the url, and viewed them, I can see them now. But originally, no. I bet if you cleared your cookies and came back, you wouldnt see them.

soxmuscle · 03-09-2005, 01:10 AM

Wow, how much weight are you squatting in those pictures? Jesus Christ.
