Which meet to do...

[b fold the truth]

Bfold,

you should compete at the strongman there.

Willie Wessells is running the meet (both the stringman and the powerlifting.) He is head of the NASS, and an incredibly nice guy as well as one of the greatest powerlifters ever.

It will be cool to meet you Zack! (What weight class, open or juniors?, and goal lifts are you planning for?)

I know Willie pretty well...hehe. I don't much like the events that he is having at that contest though but he is doing them all indoors at Eagle Gym (fairly small gym anyway). I plan to be there to support the gym, Willie, and NASS.

I'll be in either the 242 or 275 weight class. Right now I'm right around 242, so I dont know. I'll be in the Juniors. Hoping to total 1300-1400.

STL!!!! I love it. Those guys powerlift EVERY Saturday morning at 8 am. If you are interested, we can drive up on a Friday night and practice on Saturday morning. It costs $5 to train with them but you will get to use the EXACT equipment as will be used in your meet.

Sounds like a good plan. You talking about the weekend of the meet or another weekend before then?

Thats what I thought. Yeah, that sounds like a great plan. Once classes get started after Christmas break and I know a little more about my schedule we can plan a weekend and go over there.

Will a monolift be used @ the meet?

They have a monolift at their gym...wait..yes..they do use a monolift I believe.

It would be nice to use the EXACT same equipment as will be used in your meet...AND to train with a WR holder in the Squat.

Yeah, it would definitely help a lot.
We can get over there sometime in late Jan.
