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!

With a week left to go I would not change anything you have been doing.
Make changes after the competition.
Changes now could have adverse effects.

Anytime.

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 assisted on the up) and 4 unassisted on the 2nd set. Third set I was outta gas for the pull, but with my trainer as my assist on the up, I held a nice long negative for 8 reps. I was pretty darn happy with that today! (I've NEVER done unassisted pull ups before, nor did I even think I could!)

Me thinks I just might be a LITTLE sore tomorrow LOL!!

Awesome job on the pullups. Allot of people have a hard time with pullups so to do 5 unassisted is really good. Personally I like incorporating them in my back training - they are an awesome exercise if you can do them.

Great job...
