FINALLY!!!!! 500+lbs bench and 600+lbs deadlift!!!!

I had an absolutely awesome meet this weekend. I hit a couple huge milestones in powerlifting. This was one of the better meets ive been to, Bret Kernoff did an awesome job. This is how the weekend went for me...

opened with 462/210kilos just to get in the groove, seat the shirt. as you can see it was a little wobbly on the way down, hard as fuck to touch. I got one redlight, he said my ass came off. you be the judge...thats called LEG DRIVE kiddies 1st Bench

485lbs/220kgs this weight felt soo much better, it was pretty damn easy i must say. smoked it... 2nd Bench

507lbs/230kgs felt just as easy as the 485. My partners, the judges, they all said i would have given 540-550 a ride, but i ran out of attempts. 3rd Bench

and just for fun lol.... a shot at the 567.5lb/257.5kg APF junior 198 National record. I felt great lifting, the weights were flying up so i was like why the fuck not right? I know i can control this much weight easily so i wasnt worried about getting hurt. and a bunch of guys were pushing me to try it. two weeks ago i locked out 600lbs off a 4.5" board, so i figured i had a shot. 4th Bench (record attempt) watch out...6 months its mine

and i only have one deadlift attempt for you because my gf forgot to get the first two, but i went 518/235kg 551/250kg 601/272.5kg. Felt great even after 4 bench attempts, i think 610-615 wasnt out of reach 3rd Deadlift

anyways this was a great push/pull for me, and i still have over 1 year as a junior, so a few records will fall within the next year or so. I wish there were more full powermeets around newengland, but unfortunatly im stuck doing push-pulls most of the time.

btw i would have won the best lifter award, but my training partner, the guy handing off to me beat me by 2.5 kilos (we are both 198). bastard! he got a bigass sword too wtf.
 
thanks everybody, i had a blast


and as far as my weight, it came down to me taking a shit, pissing twice, and spitting in a trash can for 10 minutes to make 198.25 lol, but i made it.

thanks guys...and ladies

I just cant wait for another meet to come around now. Had two bad ones in a row (got hurt, then bombed) so this is a long time coming.

Devastation your an APF judge if i remember correct right? whats it going to take to get a full power meet here in CT some time?? ;)

QS hows the Metal gear working for you? i hate the ipf squat suits but im interested in their bench shirts
 
I have everything Metal. Supposidly the Metal Viking pro bencher is the shiznett... It has an easy to learn groove and a lot of pop of the bottom. The have the new bash bencher and denim but havn't heard anything about them and they are friggin expensive.

I have the IPF Viking X-type bencher, it's allright but no confidence in the sleeves, I beleive I will blow it out soon. If your going single ply, I think Titan is coming out with a new one but the F6 is the best for the money. One of my partners has one, he's a 165 lber looking to bench 415 in it. This past week prior to getting the sleeves on we twisted them inwards a bit, friggin jacked up the shirt significantly once it was set.

I hated my squat suit too, maybe its because of my build - but I couldn't seem to get the damn thing up high enough on my thighs. I am a very upright squatter and it seemed to give me nothing in the hole. In meets I have watched, I have liked the Titan squat suits as they seem a bit more streamlined for a smaller build. Don't get me wrong, it did give me a good jump in weight, but still wanted to try some other brands. I had an old Titan Centurion lent to me and I really liked it - I wanted to get a custom Titan, but never did. My Metal bencher was the IPF single-ply which I did not press enough weight in to ever blow out. I think I would like an open back, but the federation we lifted in didn't allow them. More accomodating to my 'chest' if you get my drift. :) - all in all, I like the Metal and it was a heck of single ply, but as also mentioned in this thread by chambewy, other brands are worth a look.

Ive got to try that trick with the sleeves on my ragex single next time. I talked with Brent Mikesell about shirts for a while and he said all the big benchers are moving away from yanking the front down as much as possible. now they are taking the shoulder seams and pulling them down as much as possible on the triceps. I do this now and it works well, painful and cuts you up, but it does give tremendous support at the bottom without messing up the groove.

As far as the Titan shirt coming out, i met a kid at this meet i just did. He is sponsored by them and he has one of the new shirts. He didnt really want to show any of us the shirt, but we talked him into it. It makes my double ply ragex look and feel like an old blast shirt! Its a poly, but you would swear the material is canvas, absolutly crazy shit.

The Centurion is my favorite suit to date, you feel like you can squat with your natural form and it still gives you a ton of support (as far as single ply goes). Plus I can use it to deadlift in and it works great.
