The one meet per year we get to do without flying a minimum of 2 hours. A very up and down day for my team this go around
132 Female, first meet in gear
Squat, 341, missed 374 twice
Bench, bomb with 253
She got very sick 2 weeks before the meet which really set us back. Really sucked bombing on bench. She was destroying 285 in training and did not take this well. I quickly turned from coach into counselor. What really sucks is even with just her squat opener, if she just got this bench opener she still would have hit Elite her first time out. She knows her next meet her squat will be over 400 and bench over 300 with a pull in the mid 3's.
165 male, gear
Squat, 601, PR at this weight class
Bench, 391, missed 418 twice
Deadlift, 540
He needed 589 pull for Elite. On his second attempt he locked it out and just as down command was coming his left hand popped open and the bar dropped. This was brutal
308 male, raw
Squat, 601, 50 lb PR
Bench, 325
Deadlift, 501, 44 lb PR
Total, 1427, 67 lb PR
He had a great day except bench, he missed 347 twice, his PR is 352 so just off day for that
220 male, raw
Squat, 540, 11 lb PR
Bench, 353
Deadlift, 606, 6 lb PR
Also good day minus bench, he missed 380 twice. His PR is 385
220 male, gear
Squat, 639
Bench, 253 raw opener then missed 474 in shirt twice so withdrew from the meet
He cut from 250 over the past month to try some 220 Junior records but it took way too much out of him
At one point my team missed 10 benches in a row with sub max weight. I was about to jump off a bridge. We did end up with some PR's and no injuries so overall a good day. 2 more Elite totals are right there and will fall at next meet
