Yesterday was a loooong but very awesome day. As usual the APA did a great comp that was well organised and professional :clap: The turn out was more than expected with around 40 lifters. Hence the long day as weigh in at 11 and lifting at 1.30pm with 3 flights of lifters.

The spotter/loaders too did an awesome job.So thanks Troy and team for your hard work all day :clap:

And Big J aka The Secretary...helping the day run smoothly for the team..big ups :clap:

Before I go into what I did, I just want to say how proud I am of our team from CBC that competed. They gave it their all and some pbs were taken out. It was also evident that our lifters have had some great coaching and Steak you did a stand up job and none of us would have been there if it wasn't for the time and effort you put into us all. You are the man! :salute:

As with powelifting comps you get to meet some great people. One of which was Maria from Powerhouse. Lovely lady and accomplished lifter, showing a high level of technical skill.

And of course after meet was the obligatory KFC feed and a few laughs which for me included that large piece of cheesecake I've been dreaming of since trying to diet down to make weight.

So....weight 56.3kg :D I now know what to do in the final weeks to ditch a bit of weight without losing strength :wink:

Master 1 class

Squat:

90kg 3 whites

100kg 3 whites

110kg 3 whites had done this once before week 5, this lift felt lighter, stronger and came up faster too. Will call that a PB

Bench:

45kg 3 whites

50kg 3 whites

52.5kg 3 reds the nemisis of bench that I will beat..eventually :lol:

Deadlift:

115kg 3 whites

125kg 3 whites

135kg PB 2 whites 1 red...good lift but slight hitch on right side I think from footage

Nine weeks till Auckland champs so I think the next week will be an assist week and then into another 8 week Sheiko cycle....but today has been a sleep in 8) and a bit of Agile 8 later on.

с любовью матери России :grin:

Congratulations Bar-belle - a great day's work yesterday, and a good foundation for the Auckland champs :clap:

I can only aspire to such massive squats and deads at twice bw or over :shock: :pray:

Well done \:D/

Thank you sir. I was pretty stoked with the lifts. 3 plates a side for the dead is the next goal. No if ony I can get the damn bench to come up....oh well work in progress aye.

That's some fantastic liftering there Miss BB! PBs as well, well done to you, a well deserved cheesecake and kfc! :clap: :clap: did you get anywhere in your class? It's mighty fine BW% liftering!!

Cheers V....had heaps of fun and the cheesecake tasted soooo good =P~

Official results will be out later today as we didn't finish till about 7.30pm and then they were still collating it all. There were 4 women lifters each in different weight classes. 2 were open and 2 of us master 1. Maria the other master 1 benched and deadlifted more than me but my squat was 10kg heavier.

She was in a weight class above me so not sure how it will go though I imagine she will take out women overall. It was really great to watch her lift. Seeing the technique and skill of a seasoned female lifter was great for my own learning cos we sure are a minority in the sport.

How's your training coming along? You still doing West Side?

Hey Red thanks mate...uhh you did some great work too...Auck Champs for us both aye :nod:

And Big J aka The Secretary...helping the day run smoothly for the team..big ups :clap:

was my absolute pleasure Mother russia, just takes a load off the lifters so all they have to think about it SFW :twisted:

Mmm looks like I have a new name :pfft: :pfft:

Yip there was some tin smashed all round yesterday. Some of those boys in the 3rd flight had some great lifts too :nod:

woohoo rach you smacked it!!!!

What awesome numbers well done to you, coach steak and the rest of CBC

Good luck for the Aucks

haha not bad for an old gurl :lol:

yeah we are really lucky to have a dedicated and knowledgable coach (yes I'm just a little bit biased)...it was a real shame for some other lifters whose coaches had them opening on weights that were obviously too much and that they hadn't trained for :shock: ...not good for their morale :?

:grin:

Glad to hear you're still smashing tin. Sheiko is definately a proven method of gaining strength. You'll get gains off the first cycle but you need to do a couple to really see where you are headed. Alot of folk try one and then don't continue and they haven't really tapped into the full potential of the programme...as said by a true convert :pfft:

yip so D just phoned me to tell me results are up

So here it is

Best overall lifters: based on wilks points

1st female: Me :D

2nd female: Maria Brightwater-Wharf

3rd female: Rechell Unsworth (proud of my training partner :nod: only 8 weeks powerlifting :clap: )

Best open total:

Rechelle Unsworth: 225

Best female master 1

Maria Brightwater-Wharf: 310
