  3. Trying to rescue my squat 11 days out from my meet with heavy banded singles. We’ll see how it goes!

    Today felt great at about 92% (315lb, 143 kg) of my banded squat 1RM! I could have gotten 3 more.

  4. Pulled 410 lbs with maximum effort Sunday, after a week of tapering for the test day, even though my PR is 445 lbs. Today I pulled 3 singles of 400 lbs and it felt medium, even though I have some fatigue built up. Who knows what’s going to happen at my meet.

    Bodies are weird.

  5. 21 days out from my #USAPowerlifting meet and I’m a bit disappointed. I was only able to get 94% (365# - 165 kg) on squats.

  6. “Are we going to capitulate? I don’t see us doing that. Will we maybe have a patchwork of different rules in different states?…Our national policy is not changing.”

    This statement by #USAPL president #LarryMaile clearly demonstrates that the decision by #USAPowerlifting to prohibit the #participation of #transgender #women was not grounded in #scientific #evidence or #equitable #considerations. Instead, it seems to be rooted in #personalanimosity, #prejudice, and #discrimination...

  7. #USAPowerlifting lost a two-year court battle this week after a judge ruled that it had discriminated against #transgender athlete #JayCeeCooper by banning her from competing in women's competitions.

    The ruling also mandated that the sports organization "cease and desist from all unfair discriminatory practices" because of #SexualOrientation and #GenderIdentity and that it revise its policy related to sexual orientation and gender identity within two weeks.
