Prepping for Your First Meet S17Ep1 - The Competition Series

<p><span style="font-weight: 300;">You signed up for your first meet: what do you do now? Scott & Matt discuss what to do now.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">A huge part of preparing for a meet is realizing the purpose of the meet. The purpose of the meet is to set PRs, give your training a purpose, have some fun, meet some people, and leave feeling encouraged about lifting. Nobody cares who wins.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">You should change as little as possible leading up to the meet if it’s your first meet. If you’re a novice, just keep doing LP. Maybe you can practice some singles and do a super short 2 week “peak,” but that’s not necessary.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">This applies to powerlifting meets and strengthlifting meets. Go set PRs. It doesn’t really matter if the league doesn’t enforce squat depth: squat to full depth. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">So, sign up for a meet, have some fun, set some PRs, and continue your lifting path. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">GET STARTED with one-on-one online coaching FOR FREE!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Get your FIRST MONTH FREE on all strength and nutrition coaching plans.  No discount code needed and includes a 10-day, no obligation trial. </span> <a href="https://bit.ly/2MKeOoh"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://bit.ly/2MKeOoh</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Special offers from BLOC and our partners: </span> <a href= "https://barbell-logic.com/offers/"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">https://barbell-logic.com/offers/</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 300;">Connect with the hosts</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/reynoldsstrong/"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">Matt on Instagram</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/vera_nahce/"><span style= "font-weight: 300;">Niki on Instagram</span></a></li> </ul>
