I had an average hit out. It was just a tuning-up session for me.
Lifted with wraps and belt. Tore a peice of flesh off my thumb so my hook grip sucked.
Went:
SQ 300, 317.5, 325- 325 felt the easiest. Plenty left in the tank.
B 200/217.5/222.5- nothing special, but had some left in the tank
DL 270, 290miss (grip), 300miss (grip)
817.5kg total That's pretty good for a a tuning-up session!
I don't know if this is the right place to ask but what are your plans for the future? Are you going to compete raw or are you still hunting that 1000kg equipped total? Or both?

Baxter is just a barbarian. Personally, I find lifting out myself helps me lock my shoulders and back in and engage. Many of the Finnish lifters lift out themselves, even in a bench shirt- and the Finns have taken out SHW world bench title for the last 5 years in a row.
Another thing to keep in mind whilst I do 50 billion reps tonight. Sheiko is good for getting the movement pattern down.
I'm not going to try to emulate this just yet, but I was amazed at the arch some of the lifters were able to get.
I had to do a double take when, I think it was Jacinta, set up her bench. I don't remember exactly but I think she got 70kg at a BW of next to nothing on her third attempt.
I found if its someone I train with lots & both of us know what to expect it works well. If its someone random who I have not trained with it tends to pull me out of position a bit...
