warm up room / mind games????

[cheesePuss]

I have my first meet comming up in Dec. I was wondering, what's it like in the warm up room admist your compitition? Do people try to fuck with you....should I be outgoing and friendly or quiet? If someone ask's what I plan to lift....should I tell them?

I've seen one meet and everyone seemed cool and supportive...but this is a competitive sport....

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.

noooo.....everyone will be too into doing there own thing,nobody will fuck with you and you will actually find people willing to help you out...the only pain in the ass could be getting in warm ups,you'll have to keep your eyes on the bar and jump in when you can,but never seen anyone get fucked with at a meet.......you'll have a great time...

I dont know the contenders tend to fuck with one another warming up. Me and Rich Meyer and some of us at the bench bash for cash were too. Its all in fun but if its your first one no worries bro the mann is right people will help yoiu out alot and you will feel right at home. One thing i like to do is who ever has the biggest bench in my class except me i will hit it in the warmup to psych them out so i guess yiou could say i fuck around a bit but its all in fun. Of course i am not speaking of my last meet in sept when i was beaten by George and Kenny! No fuckin with them! LOL

The mann is right. In virtually every meets there are a bunch of people more than willing to help you out. I attended 17 meets last year and I never seen anybody trying to psych someone out or intimidate them.

The toughest part of a meet is getting a decent warm up. That is were a partner is priceless. Get someone to jump in there and help load and unload the bar so you can get some sets in.

Exodus Run up to the bar screaming so everybody is staring at you and then start smacking your ass like 20 times yelling , "That feels good!". Then do the lift. That is the way everybody else does it. Do it that way and you will be just fine. No worries..
