Ramble

So it's been a while since I've posted anything on here. I think I'll just ramble a bit for my first post back. Recently, I competed at my first full powerlifting meet. I ended up taking 5th in the open and 1st in the 18/19 age group at the 181 weight class. This was about a week and a half ago. There's just this feeling of satisfaction contentedness that I've been experiencing. That's great and all, but I can't help but feel like I need to get that hungry feeling back. I just want to raise my total above 1300 as soon as possible and if I don't train harder than a starving wolf chasing a deer, I won't get there by my next meet.

On a somewhat unrelated note, deficit deadlifts, pause deadlifts, and breathing pause squats are the greatest exercises I have ever done. One day these exercises will help me pull 300 kg and a 250 kg squat. Honestly, I don't even really care about my bench anymore. It's just a means to a total now.

Stay Strong,
JB
