Well my first powerlifting competition is on august 12th... its in my city, its a powerlifting gym... what should I expect... its bench/squat/deadlift... I asked him if i could just deadlift, he said i can do just the bar on bench and squat just for the overall number... my bench and squat are WEAK! im goin for 500 on dl, 350-400on squat, and maybe 250 if im lucky on bench...
Basically what should i expect, what should i bring, and am I gonna get the whole gym laughin at me with my weak ass bench?haha thanks alot. |

No one is going to laugh at you. I've seen people that are so weak i'ts unreal but you give them respect for their effort. Don't just do the bar a for squats and bench. Do the whole meet, max effort, full power and get your total and then go back to the trnining rom a week later and try and improve.

For your fist lift on squats and bench, lift whatever you know you can lift and then try and get some more conservative numbers for attempts 2 & 3.
Do you do your DLs with a lot of back? I'm trying to figure out why your squat is so bad compared to your DL.
Enjoy the meet.

umm no i do conventional stance, and i have pretty good form, sit my ass down as low as i can and keep my back as straight as i can...of course on max outs you break form alot and use more back... yea i dont get why my squat sucks!
