Sorry, no sound. I had to "steal" the video from a friend because I didn't record any of my own footage :).
Originally posted on my Consistent Effort channel- I have finally uploaded this video to my personal channel. It wasn't a perfect day- I went 7 for 9 and had a good deal more in the tank on a few lifts- but I came away with a few meet PRs.
I missed my bench opener on a silly mistake (I beat the press command), so I lowered my second attempt, resulting in a very conservative 3rd attempt. I knew I would probably be able to bench more, but I settled for a safe 5 kg meet PR.
I was planning on pulling 474 lbs (215 kg) to take the Junior American Record (148 lbs category) but I had some issues with my belt. This was my first meet competing in a belt, and I was having trouble with it during training- it seems that I can pull a good deal more without my belt than with it! I think it prevents me from getting into proper position for the deadlift. Anyway, I opened with an easy 402 lbs (182.5 kg), then jumped to 446 (202.5 kg) for my second attempt in anticipation of 474 lbs (215 kg) for my third attempt. On my second attempt, however, I got too far forward because of the belt, and I couldn't get the weight up. The botched attempt fatigued me, so I retook the same weight for my third attempt- this time, without the belt- and hit it, coming away with a meet PR deadlift and PR total.
All in all, it was an awesome meet with great competitors, tons of spectators, a sweet venue, nice equipment, strict judging, and a very experienced and hardworking crew of people ensuring that the meet operated smoothly.
Final numbers:
Squat: 341 lbs (155 kg)
Bench: 237 lbs (107.5 kg)
Deadlift: 446 lbs (202.5 kg)
Total: ~1025 lbs (465 kg)
