My first meet is done!

445/255/485 @ 181

Not my strongest lifts but I'm satisfied for my first time.

Missed my opener squat for depth, but got the next 2 attempts.

Bench... idk what happened here lol. Hit my opener of 255 easy, but after that its like my body just forgot how to bench. Missed the next 2 attempts, not sure nerves or tired or what.

Got my first 2 attempts at deadlift easy.
Went for 3rd attempt at 525 and I think I may have been too far away from the bar and the weight rocked me back on my heels. I recovered and locked out the 525 but I guess at some point they said the bar had stopped moving at the lift was no good.

Ended up getting 2nd place behind this other guy that was a beast! I think he cut like 15 lbs to compete so I was disappointed to lose to him.

Other than that there was a 23 year old equipped lifter that made 2 attempts at a 931 lb bench. It was wild! Didnt get it, but it was still very entertaining.

Had a great time and definitely plan on doing it again!

congrats on your first meet! (y)
The most important thing is you completed a meet and established a total. You now have official numbers to beat and training goals to set. You also have a better understanding of the pacing of a meet and what to expect for your next contest. Nice work!

Great job! Never take it too seriously that you no longer enjoy it.
