Saw My First Powerlifting Meet Yesterday


Oh my God it was awesome guys.

If you've never been, GO! I encourage the bodybuilders to also. There's just nothing like watching guys put up unbelievable weight. It was the michigan state championships. The biggest squat i saw that someone got was 735. Someone tried 740 and missed.

The women too, oh my God are they the hottest girls you'll ever see around there. HEHEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE.

I'm definitely going to do a meet in about 3 years (about the time itll take me to finish dieting and then get some good strength while eating big for awhile.

I'm definitely hooked now! My girlfriend used to go to bodybuilding meets and couldnt stand them. This was her first powerlifting meet and she had a blast. Just amazing how these guys can put that kind of weight up.

I'm glad you liked it.
Firehawk I was thinking about you the other day.
We were at the station and one of my guys was flipping around the TV stations and stopped at Fit TV. A fitness channel by us. They had a Show that had the differences between Bodybuilders and Power lifters. I saw about 10 min. before we got a hit and had to roll. But they talked about how a BBer wants to be big and all cut with no fat and any strength gained is just a byproduct, and how PLers feel a little fat helps keep us stable and any muscle size is a by product of strength. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.
Of course the whole house was teasing as they tend to call me a juice head even though I'm natural! LOL Just fire house humor.

Dude i can't wait for the day I'm accused of using roids lol. It'll make my day EVERYDAY lol.

I was hooked before the meet, but now I'm hook line and sinker.
