I weighed in this morning at 164.5 lbs which takes me under the 165 lb weight class limit. I personally feel I can maintain 155 to 160 lbs and then carb up for a contest if required. (if I ever manage to compete again) Started out at 173.
Incidentally. I tried my first squat workout last week. It hurt and I was sore for 3 days after. I got up to half a plate per side. This sucks.
I was strong enough to do more but the knee was hurting and I thought I was going to pull a ham or a groin. -- Bob Mann Help save trees. Wipe your ass with an owl.

Good job, Bob! I'm thinking about training to be the best powerlifter on golf's senior tour when I turn 50. Damn there's some money to be made there.

Nicely done Bob. I'm stuck at 191 and 188 seems impossible. I'm going to review what I'm doing/eating again. I think just too many "re-feed weekends"! -- -Larry

I considered the refeeds but what I have noticed is that I will gain a little and then have one or two lower calorie days and the weight just plummets for 2 or 3 days. It is definitely a wave not a freefall. As long as I'm not hungry I don't mind what the calories are as long as they stay below 2000. Generally I am in the 1600 range but the last couple of days were around 1400. I know that's low but it's what works. I could also be underestimating some meals as I don't measure. -- Bob Mann Help save trees. Wipe your ass with an owl.

Thanks. I agree. We sure picked the wrong sport for money. -- Bob Mann Help save trees. Wipe your ass with an owl.
