Bench is finally up to 120. Comp 2 weeks from today...hoping to smack another 5 lbs on there by then :)

New numbers... Incline Bench - 105 Decline Bench 125 Close grip bench - repped 100 for 3 this morning - on a lark...at the END of my workout Chin ups I'm up to 9. Damn I want that last rep SO bad!

Thanks! Should be sometime soon. Trainer said when I hit 120 on the bench, he'll find me a competition. I'm THISCLOSE....the body has the strength, now if my brain would just decide to cooperate... We did lightened method bench last week...I hit 170. Kinda freaked myself out, haha!

Pin press...2" off, pushed 120 tonight. Close grip bench, 100 x 3 twice. Next week should be interesting! New bench max?? Last Monday, 2 sets of chin ups 7 reps (damn I want 10 SO bad!!), 6 on the 3rd.

Set a goal last summer, to bench press my body weight. Hit that tonight - 110 lbs 25 lbs to go for goal #2!

Had a personal best today or maybe call it a "first"...(not on bench press - have been doing alternate workouts for 6 weeks now, but back to powerlifting next week. Can't wait to see how it goes!) This morning I managed to do pull ups, unassisted for 5 reps on the first set (followed by 3...

I've used Kre-Alkalyn & had no problems with water retention.

Hey Thanks so much! Next time I am prepping for a meet, I may call on you (and everyone else) in this most amazing forum!

I tried SO hard to eat oatmeal, more times than I can count, but just couldn't do it! No matter what I put in it, I guess it's the texture that got to me. Now I eat it daily for breakfast, but in a smoothie. I just grind up the oats in a blender...add water, strawberries, protein & a...

Foremost goal: Figure out why triple digits mess with my head!!

Thanks everyone! I fully intend to keep pushing myself. I truly appreciate the advice & encouragement I received from all of you! Told my trainer the other day...I want to be 110 lbs, 10% BF, and bench 135. LOL think it's possible?? Would be fun to watch some jaws drop =)

Thanks everyone for your advice & for the luck! The competition is over... I didn't hit a PR this time, though I was SO amped & ready. Not sure what happened, but it is what it is. My mood at the moment is "happily pissed". I popped 95 lbs like it was nothing (it kind of is nothing for me...
