Hi!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
From now until forever
\n(because that is how long I\u2019m in the gym as of late)\"\"<\/div>\n
I will write about the things I learned about myself, life, powerlifting and all that jazz here. As I am not longer invading the Wimwamgym as a spectator and visitor only, but because I can call Wim my trainer & coach now, \u00a0I think there will be plenty of things I want to write (read complain) about \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
The direct link to all this madness is www.powerliftster.nl\u00a0<\/strong>Bookmarking \u00a0is free \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
To keep it fresh and frisky I will serve y’all weekly with a \u00a0\u2018things ILY did’ segment starting right away with :<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
THREE THINGS I LEARNED ABOUT LIFTING ON A LIGHT PROGRAM MADE FOR A POWERLIFTER WHO CAN’T DO MATH.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
ONE\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n
Read! And if you think you understand, read it again. My sister got me a new notebook , i wrote the program down and still managed to do more reps than coach put down. Coach laughed at me when he saw my videos\u2026. nice try honey.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
TWO<\/strong><\/div>\n
Improvise! After getting pretty irritated about not having a 15 kilo dumbell for wobbly squats I managed to make my own with a 14 and my kilo plates. Doing my wobblys with a dumbell instead of a plate was kind of a thing to adjust to. I still loathe them with a passion but hey\u2026. it is a small sacrifice if it enables me to squat 200 classic right \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
THREE<\/strong><\/div>\n
Go! On Saturday I had to do the \u2018 heavy\u2018 sesh on my own because my sister Iris wasn\u2019t training right before her debut at Equipped Nationals. I slept like crap but just told myself to GO GO GO and to suck it up. After 6 years, because that is how long that session took :-), I was rarely delighted to have squatted using my belt only on all of my topsets and managed with no equipment on bench and deadlift. Happy campergoals!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Looking forward to this week, I saw paused squats on there ; the joy \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
