01 Sep Paul Oneid – 5 weeks out Bench and Deads

[wa-wps]

 

I am currently prepping for an RPS meet in Kingston, Ontario on Oct 2. I am going to be competing at 242 raw with wraps. My training is in the capable hands of Jonathan Byrd and my diet is in the hands of Danny Vega. My body is feeling great and I am excited to step on the platform again after a bit of a lackluster meet in June.

Opener 400, second 430 (miss-grooved), third 450 to 2 board. Great day on the bench. One session at a time from here to the meet. #bench #benchpress #boardpress #powerlifter #powerlifting #rawpowerlifting #meetprep #dynamobarbell #crossfitotown #inzer #IAD #inzer #1020L #1020Life #tentwentylife #PRS #TeamPRS #PowerRackStrength #PLPnutrition #captainjacked #noskinnychampions #progressisaprocess #onedayatatime #theyhateuscausetheyanus #hotpam #ottawa @onlythestrong275 @powerrackstrength

I am doing my best to take things one session at a time.  Having a coach has allowed me to turn off my brain and just follow his directions.  So far, I have taken care of business.  Each completed training session is a check on a list and if I check all the boxes, I will be ready to do what I need to on meet day.  Things are feeling really solid and my body is adapting as best I could have hoped.  Just need to keep moving forward and checking the boxes.  Also, I wanna give a shout out to Coach Jonathan Byrd, Pooh Bear and all the other team PRS and 10/20/Life folks competing this weekend.
