: Well first off the Venue was kick ass! Tons
: of fitness models walking around and a crowd
: that kept growing. Warm up room had plenty
: of weight and benches for the lifters to get
: warmed up properly. The meet kicked off on
: time and moved smoothly with no unecessary
: delays. A lot of time and effort was put
: into running this meet and I felt it was a
: great success once the bars started moving.
: This was probably the most fun I have had at
: a meet in a long time. All the lifters were
: cool and suportive towards each other.
: Don't get me wrong we were all there for the
: same reason and that was to win. All egos
: and hard feeling were put to the side and we
: all did our best to put a freak show on for
: the crowd. I opened up with 800 as planned
: and pretty much hit to reps with ease.
: Jumped to 850 to tie Mendy who was in the
: Big Fat benchers division and hit my first
: rep easy and then had a brain fart on my
: second rep and has to grind out of my
: technique mistake. I got two reps but the
: second one took a lot out of me. I was
: impressed with a lot of the lifting that
: took place. Jason Coker stole the show in
: my opinion in his feirce battle with Jessie
: Kellum that was second only to the war that
: Coker went to with Brad Heck at the Arnold
: in 2007. I am definately pumped for the
: Olympia and will make a few modifications to
: my training so I am better prepared. Thanks
: to John Inzer and everyone else involved
: with putting this meet together.
