Well I just got out of the shower from a very long day at the APF Teen Nationals here in Baton Rouge LA. I had a blast seeing all my old friends from all over the country. There were 126 lifters in all and the meet ran from 10am until 8:30pm. I was in the bench only competition since I have been training so hard for Figure Competition. I have not done any squats since December or dead-lifts either. so I just benched. Well I weighed in at 110.2 lbs yesterday and this morning I weighed 109 lbs even. My usual competition weight for Powerlifting has been 119-121 lbs. I was surprised when I started lifting and easily got my opener of 158.25lbs and my second lift was 170.75lbs and it felt easier than my first lift so I went 181lbs on my third and just missed locking it out. I could tell that my top end strength was effected from the weight loss. Anyway both lifts were National records and I won my weight class. That is win number 87 for me. Thanks for all the support you all gave me these past few weeks.
peace,
