This week I'm just using as a deload/intuitive week as I start my 10wk prep next week.

Bring it on, I'm ready.

this is an interesting concept.. A vegetarian powerlifter.. I like it... pound for pound you're numbers are strong already.. I think you're well on your way to kicking some butt in that comp

Thanks for stopping by and the comments too. There's at least two of us vege PL'ers from my city, actually the other kid is a lifelong vegetarian and at the Raw Champs in Dec 2012 (where I finished 4th overall) he ended up winning the whole thing. Kid is only 18 and that was his second time on the lifting platform, he has some ridiculous strength.

Just entered a push/pull meet on 15th Feb, will be an opportunity to test out my numbers see where I'm at. I'm not going to rest up for it as I haven't even really started any proper training yet, will just rock on up and see what happens. Should be good though

Thanks, I would honestly say it's my weakest lift but also the lift for the most potential.

I've hit 140kg raw in competition before and I've hit 150kg once in training (with wraps), so my goal for my April meet is to get back to squatting at least 130+ again.

Followed Wednesday's workout up with a really strong leg & chest session last night (floor benches & box squats with bands).

Final sets were floor bench 176 x 4 and box squats 242 x 6 with the purple 1 kilo bands adding extra resistance. I set them up like this:
