3 days away!

Well, my powerlifting comeback is only 3 days away. I feel super confident about my bench press...deadlift is a question mark. Honestly, this is good becasue I am not constantly thinking about it. I'll either hit my goal or not. I am viewing this as a benchmark for the next time I compete. In all reality, I have only been really training specifically for powerlifting for about 10 weeks so eventhough I am confident about my bench, I truly don't know what I will deadlift. I plan to open at 440 lbs and just go up from there. I'm thinking it'll be like this : 1st-440, 2nd- 465-475, 3rd-480-500.

I am still about 5 pounds over my weight class (100 kg). yes, I will have to lose some water weight prior to weight in. The key is getting this weight off without depleting my energy. I may have to do some sauna treatment! I have a wrestling background so I have been there before but it ain't fun. I just don't want to "diet" right now becasue then my strength will be zapped. I will drink a ton of water today and tommorrow then shut it off until weigh in. This is an old indian trick to weight loss prior to a weigh in...eventhough you aren't drinking water, you will continue to pee like you have been drinking water thus you lose water weight.

making weight won't be an issue. I'll hit the weight limit with no problem.

I will post results by Sunday.
