Personal tips that I've learned along my still short journey:

Leave your ego at the door.
Prepare. Showing up dehydrated, hungry, and tired will guarantee failure.
Be ready to fight for that grinder of a PR.
Listen and learn. Absorb everything you can, and assimilate that knowledge.

Top Gym lifts:
Squat: 415lbs
Deads: 440lbs
Bench: 315lbs

From last night, 265kg (~584 lbs):


I don't usually attempt PB's for the competition lifts in training. Sometimes, however, having fun gets the best of even the most stalwart plan followers.

That lift was a 25kg PB, and is 7.5kg better than the current Canadian national record for my age/weight class.

Crushed it. Well done.

I finally decided to figure out how to edit videos. Here's an improved video of my last 2 pr's, with a little M&B love too.

Benches look good, well done.

Lockout looked a bit soft on the pulls though. On purpose or?

That's just the way I do it. My lockout is strong, just not very hard. Next time I get a video I'll try to get more of my upper body in there. I'm hoping to get vids of everything from different angles so I can get my form right now, instead of trying to fix things later on. I'll definitely be posting more vids, with much interest in critiques.
