08 Nov Paul Oneid – 3wks out | Last Bench and DL
November 24, 2018, I will be competing in the EPC Finals in Guelph, ON. This was the meet where I tore my quad in 2017. I have 2 goals:
- Get to the meet healthy
- Build momentum for the future
If there is a PR there, I will take it, but I am playing the long game from here on out.

This was the last heavy week of training before the meet. Next week will be openers on Squat and Bench, then some technique work on the Deadlift. The bench went very well. Plan was to hit my opener and then jump to a weight above my second and below my third. It went up and I am happy. Nothing much else to report. I am getting tighter and in much better position than I have been in the past, so it is just a matter of executing when it counts now.
On the deadlift, I was tired. Rarely do I pull my last heavy deadlift and take my last heavy squat within 3 days of each other, but my schedule got messed up and I had to get it done. My plan was a double, but I got two (sloppy) singles instead. This is above my opener and below my second. This was also the 5th training week in a row. Because of the schedule and when I started prep, I opted to taper my volume instead of deload. It’s worked out well and I got done what I needed to. The next two weeks will be completely technique and recovery oriented so I can come into the meet fresh and ready to have some fun!
