14 Mar LCS May6Week2, Session 2

This will start our heaviest prep for our in-house meet.  Being that this isn’t a full meet we’re only doing a short 8 week cycle with limited gear.

Lowcountry Strength is currently training for an in-house mock meet.  This is an open day to anybody interested in powerlifting.  It’s a free event to come out, ask questions, hang out and get a lift in.  We won’t turn anybody away.  Come ask your questions about powerlifting or just lifting in general.

Here’s the Facebook event’s page:

Lowcountry Strength’s In-House Fun Day

Training thoughts:

I worked up to one heavier set than last week and did  2 sets of my heaviest from last week.  Things are progressing pretty well.  Everything feels pretty light.  But I’m waiting to push it until the next couple weeks.  Being back in the gear for the first time in 6 months definitely gives me a little hesitation.  It’s feeling good but just doing some offseason work doesn’t mean I need to be pushing it yet.

I’m still hitting numbers in the briefs that I’ve done raw.  The goal is just to get readjusted to the pressure and the technique.  Got a deload coming up so going to rest a bit then start to push a little.  The goal is to get as close to 700 in briefs as I can.  My best is 715 (same as my best full gear squat, unfortunately).

All of us are a little different as I’m pushing for each individual to work on certain weaknesses.  Nic and I are roughly the same but Steve you’ll notice is in his suit.  It’s suit only.  I’ve got him working straps up to get more comfortable with that.  He needs more stability work.  Nic as well.  Nic is doing more heavy unrack and holds post squatting.  Again, tailoring each session to the lifter a bit but all within the 10/20/Life principles.
