The Provincials were held in Ottawa last weekend, and as always ran really smoothly. It was an early morning with not much sleep, but I was there to kick some ass nevertheless.
Warming up I felt good. No knee pain, and my body was not hurting everywhere for the first time in 8 weeks...
Squats went AMAZING. All of my attempts felt easy as pie...mmmm, pie. Can't wait to see what I squat in April.
Bench, I still have to learn how to use my shirt effectively. There is a lot more there, I just have to learn how to put it together. My last attempt was my best touch, but it flew off my chest and over my face. Thank god for good spotters. Otherwise I didn't even get to strain to see if I could have lifted it. Next time.
Deadlifts went better than I anticipated. I had trouble with 395 in the gym two weeks ago, but my back was fried from GM's the day before, so I guess a little rest and adrenaline helps.
My best total to date at 517.5 kgs, 1140lbs, as well as a record wilks for me at 511.8.
I won best overall female lifter, but my real goal was to get best overall of men and women that day, I think I just missed by about 6 points. Next time.
Here is some of the footage of my lifts. I had Ellynne, a client of ours tape most of it, but she had to leave after bench, which left Paul's mom to finish. She missed 2 out of the 3 lifts she was supposed to tape...haha.
Anyways, I had a good fan base. Thanks to everyone that came out to help shout at me!
Looking forward to Nationals :)
