I can make 225, although I could easily go higher. But I'd prefer not to be in IBench900's weight class. LOL.

Stop by Trainordie.com's forum and post a start a workout log. I'm curious to see how everyone trains for this.

Still trying to figure it out. I just came off a long layoff. Took the whole summer off. Started training again after Labor day. I'm almost back to where I should be, but not quite. I won't be able to do my best in only 5 weeks but I hope to make a good showing.
I plan on just doing maintance on Squats and Deads. Outside of that I'm not sure. Probably just work my way up to the heavier weights on the bench.

Do they require you to wear a singlet? Or just tight shorts? Or do they care?

 

[Parabellum]

You can wear anything, they don't care.

Has anyone contacted these people? Do we have to pre-register? When is the weigh in? Meet day? Or before

I spoke to Jim Henry 2 weeks ago. The weigh in will be at 11am.

It's hard getting a hold of someone there.

So we dont' have to pre-register, just show up?

He said just you can just show up. He told me that they will not turn anyone away, even if the lifting goes into the evening.

Call there and ask for Jim, info is at the bottom of the flyer, he calls back.
