just remember to take your time and wait for your commands, its easy to forget and get red lighted for racking the bar before the command! go pretty light on your 1st of each lift so you have a lift in the bag, failing the first lift will put you in the wrong frame of mind. most of all have fun!!!!!!

Thanks Dan, I'll take all that on board and try to stay focussed. Last thing I want is to hit a PB then fail on something like racking. Hopefully someone will help me practice each of the commands once in warmups, we'll see. As for opening weights, I thinking something like 120 squat, 80 bench, and 150 deadlift, all of which I could easily nail even on a bad day.

Don't worry mate, there will be plenty of help on hand.
I've not been to this venue before, the NM comp is normally in Sc**thorpe but Marc Giles is a good bloke and the Horncastle crowd are always friendly.

Your openers look reasonable going on what you're lifting in training.
What are you weighing in at?

Thanks, Les. I dont have any reliable scales unfortunately, I could be anywhere between 78kg and 81kg, somewhere thereabouts. I'd much rather sit on the higher end of the class so after this comp I think I'm gonna really go to town and up the food and put abit more weight on. It already feels like I eat alot though, I'll just have to force it lol

No problems weight wise then, just make sure you get a good breakfast down you in the morning and not have to be loosing some last minute water weight like us fatties!

Comp today:
Weight in at just under 77, so a couple of kilos lighter than I thought I actually was. I need to eat more, and buy some better scales lol.

Squat:
120 ok
130 ok
140 ok

Bench:
80 ok
85 ok
92.5 Fail. Not sure what happened here, I've done 90 in the gym paused but the 92 just wasn't meant to be.

Deadlift
130 ok
155 ok
170 ok

Very pleased with the dead PB, and met some top people, some real nice guys down in Horncastle. A big thanks to Marc for putting it all on, had a great day.

Onwards and upwards Happy
