Do you guys think that is ok for the first time just to use a singlet? And if i get my ass clobbered by guys with suits..which i have a feeling will happen.. i might consider the suit.
I squat all the way down (hamstings touching calves) however i do know that PL is only to slightly below parallel which feels kinda funky to me..(i don't know when i am at the right depth)
I bench with a slgiht pause to get a max eccentric contraction with the pecs...however the rulebook for this meet said it is up the descretion whether is a pause or not....??
Ohhh one more thing i deadlift conventional....some guys were telling me i should do sumo....i have never messed with that...looks uncomfortable...any suggestions???
I APPRECIATE THE HELP ENTIRELY THANKS AGAIN!!
You're welcome.
Is it an APA meet? Is wade johnson the meet director?
Whatever your numbers are, don't worry- you're only competing against yourself. If its your first meet- you aren't there to win- you're there to learn and do your best. nothing more.
If you've never pulled sumo, i don't think you should pull that way for the meet. My page in my exercise directory for sumo deadlifts is currently in need of repair, but you can find descriptions all over and start trying it.
