    Powerlifting meets come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes you compete in a weight class all by yourself. Sometimes at National Levels you could have 20 or more lifters in one class. I have a ton of 1st place trophies....but not many I'm proud of, lol. I'd like to get myself in a big meet vs some other guys around the same strength as me. That way everyone would push each other to make each lift count. All the meets I do are for fun. I have never really had that "competition" thing going on in a meet. This is mostly because of all of the different federations and divisions that meet directors offer(and the fact that I havenot done a National or World meet yet).

    guess im sayin i worked way to hard to not win..
    yea thats weird cuz thats partly how i screwed my self out of a victory with out knowin it..
    i weighed in at 168 cuz i figured there was no way i was gonna make 165, even though i coulda, but oo well, just makes me wanna win more.
    yea ive always had fun no matter what no matter what i placed.
    they are much fun
