Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I have been gradually losing weight since I started PW. I am 5'6 and now weigh 180 to 181 depending on how much food I ate. All my lifts have gone up as I was new to PW except for my bench which seems to be greatly affected by my weight. Right now if I cut carbs out my abs will almost all be in including down my sides. Know if I were to enter a comp should I settle my weight or let it drop a little more and see if 165lb is in me? Just curious.

Everyone can drop one weight class if they really HAVE too.
The way I see it bro if your going there break some kinda record in 165 then drop the weight if not then it's very taxful on the body and it will be on ur strength and at a lower weight ur bench ain't gonna go anywhere. So just stay wherever u r and lift in that class.

I agree. If theres no record or money to be had then lift at what you are. You will lift more and get more confident about meets.
