My first power meet


My first powerlifting meet,1985. Perhaps the longest running power meet in america, the San Jose Ironman, a combination of bodybuilding AND powerlifting. You powerlift first, then compete in a bodybuilding meet.I was a bodybuilder at the time but caught the power bug for real five years later. I believe the weight on the bar was 440.

175 x 1 x 8 180 x 1 x 2, 16 kg swing vo2 30 x 8, band pushdowns, rev curls

 Not bad but not totally what I expected either. I was slow at the start, I think from unracking too much with my hips and not just my legs ...
