A little about me

I have competed in both Olympic Weightlifting and Bench-Only Lifting. I competed in Olympic Lifting as a kid. Best lifts of 255 Olympic Press, 225 Snatch, 255 Clean & Jerk. I met many of the great lifters and coaches from the 60's and 70's. After a 20-year break to serve my country I started lifting regularly again and competing in Bench-Only. Best Lift: 419lbs "equipped".

Feel free to follow along on the adventure...

We fall into this trap before meets all the time. Don't cut the volume down so much that your not training. Your 2 weeks out. Do something that has a good amount of volume, just reduce the weight your using. Do a training week you would do normally around 70% and then take the following week off and get your 200kg bench! I'll be there to support you!
