well got through with USAPL Raw nationals. Had a tough time with depth in the squat, but managed to get one. Ended up taking 1st place in the 220 class. weighed in around 215, but extra weight gain did noyt help. will stick with healtheir diet and get my body fat down. nationals went like this

squat
1st-528 no good depth
2nd- 528-good
3rd-562 no good depth

bench
381-good
402-good
419- no good hit saftey racks

deads
600 good
633 good
667 good for the win (thank you Lord!)

total-1598 (Praise God!)
