westside and raw bench?

[powerlifterjay]

On ME work yu can do full rep benching with green or blue bands suspended in the rack. I love them. Just a thought.

 

[jeremys]

i dont have any bands, i dont even know if the gym owner will let me bring a box in for squats..dont know what to do there..i'll ask though

They follow USAPL rules, just like every state high school powerlifting organization...They allow single ply poly

oh, ok...thats cool...but i looked at some site with gear and it said next to a bench shirt that it was not legal in high school lifting...but thats cool then

 

[jeremys]

another thing...i plan on dropping weight and lifting in the 220 class..
1. how long should i wait to get a shirt?
2. how much do alterations cost if its not the right fit?
3. how long do alterations take?
4. should i drop to 225 and just drop 5 pounds before a contest?(if so, how would i do this?
5. how do i break in the shirt when i get it?

as you can tell, im quite uneducated about the subject..

1. I would buy one now
2. and 3. * I dont know, I haven't bought a shirt yet, I am using a friends*
4. I would do that, you can drop 5lbs of water weight the day before the meet by using a sauna.
5. use it in a max effort exercise, like board presses or reverse band press...Its up to you, how many times you use your shirt
I am planning on using mine once a month, or so.


Inzer or Titan would be your best best for a shirt...I am ordering a Titan either tomarrow or thursday

What are you max's?
Do you have a squat suit, or deadlift suit? If not you want to atleast get a squat suit.

4. Be carefull when dropping water weight right before a contest if the weigh in is right before the contest be careful. Dropping that weight right before can zap some strength from you.

i dont think there's a sauna around here anyways...should i drop to 220 now and get strong in that class or does it not matter what time i drop the weight? what about alterations for the bench shirt? any info would be cool..

What are you max's?

i'm pathetically weak for my size, maybe my age. i dont know..
low to mid 300 squat, 250 or so bench, high 300-400 deadlift, with a belt on squat and dead

once powerlifting season starts i can order a squat suit for cheap..but i think i have to stop training westside too for a few weeks until the season is over because of my asshole coach

WTF??!

 

[jeremys]

long story...i posted about this a while ago..well during the summer i have to pay 14 bucks at the high school to lift...and the asshole coach told me i couldnt lift if i didnt use their workout program..he bitched at me all the time and everybody who's been coached by him says he's quite the asshole..i think they use some dumb 5x5 routine...its retarded..
