And although I will do this meet I don't REALLY consider myself a powerlifter per say, because that would narrow me down too much. I do powerlifting because I like the limit strength side of training, however I have too many other things I like to do, that probably take away from powerlifting in some form or Paul Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15352715396075897963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141022388560653061.post-4736206368006699092011-06-13T17:37:07.696-07:002011-06-13T17:37:07.696-07:00Excellent...I'm glad you're committing to ...Excellent...I'm glad you're committing to a meet Paul. I don't want to sound derogatory, but I was afraid you were one of those guys that follows and trains for the sport of powerlifting but never steps on the platform. <br /><br />So what weight class are you competing at? BTW, you can see where your lifts would place you in the top 50 all-time from 2007 to present at:<br /><br />Scottnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141022388560653061.post-11495645129178555502011-06-13T13:09:03.417-07:002011-06-13T13:09:03.417-07:00Thanks man.

I had been mulling it over for a while but announcing meets that I am going to do has resulted in pretty significant injuries shortly after so I wanted to wait until I was closer. Obviously with the money spent I'm going to chicago in July. If I happen to tear something between now and then I'll just have a nice vacation there.Paul Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15352715396075897963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141022388560653061.post-90088038358142816842011-06-13T12:00:47.054-07:002011-06-13T12:00:47.054-07:00LOL - I was going to message you and mention that ...LOL - I was going to message you and mention that IMHO you should do a meet sooner rather than later.<br />Great to have something to shoot for - the very best of luck1369philnoreply@blogger.com
