Sunnyday's Training Journal

[Sunnyday]

Good for you! I always thought the comaraderie at a powerlifting meet was 100x's better than bbing.

Stay tuned. In September there is a push-pull meet. I plan to smoke an open and two masters state records there (one of them my own).

Undoubtedly Curt will ban me shortly, so good luck in your training and your competition!

Thanks for the well wishes. Behave yourself and stick around. Us RX people aren't so bad once you get to know us.

There's like 4 people here, you, Curt, mac and "PFA"? And it's quite obvious with Curts ban happy attitude that he intends to keep it that way.
Wander over to getbig sometime, we aren't all that bad either.

I've visited/lurked years ago and I check back from time to time to see if the atmosphere has changed. Sadly your getbig friends aren't very supportive of women, typical of what I've seen on other hardcore sites. :-( It's how I ended up here in the first place. It's the only site I could find where members trained hard and that was supportive of women/moms (that wasn't an all-female site that is).

This is true. I blame it on the virgins and roid ragers.


What are your goal numbers for your next comp?

I went 8/9 in my first full meet that happened 2 weeks ago. Numbers:
160 sq (not easy with a busted hip and back)
132 bp
226 dl
total 518 at a BW of 109 (49.45 kg). the lightest and I believe the oldest one on the platform. At least I'm certain I was the oldest woman competing that day. Not sure about the men.

Goals:
9/9 without skimping on challenging attempts
open with my last meet's 3rd attempts or better
hit a nifty DL PR on the platform
that's all LOL

in the 6 months after my first meet I added 20 lbs to my bench. Another offseason like that would be totally doable, not to mention awesome because it would be very close to Sioux-z Hartwig Gary's raw bench.

The responsibility falls upon each of us to identify the benefits of Rx Muscle to others. Each of us come to the site for various reasons. Quality communities are built over time. Adding good people who post and add benefit to the community is the only sustainable way to grow. What are your thoughts, questions, passions, are the things that begin dialogue.
