The meet: Drug-free and raw push/pull - no wraps, straps, or lifting gear (singlet and belt only)

My lifts: I only entered the deadlift portion of the meet; due to a strained shoulder I can't do heavy bench. I opened with 500, jumped to 550 on my 2nd lift, and pulled a PR of 585 on my 3rd (3 green lights on all lifts).

The results: I took 1st overall in the men's 242 open class (weighing in at 232) and 1st overall deadlifter.

I honestly didn't expect the results to be what they were. I had a lot of fun and I can definitely say this won't be my last meet...
