Just letting everyone know I'm thinking of doing the SSA meet in March in Warner Robins GA. If I'm able to bench 410 in a week or so I'm gonna go. The only drawback is that they don't have a Raw division. They have a Standard division that you can choose to lift Raw in if you want. If thay had the Raw division I might could make the Top 50 for my weight class. This is my only real goal this year to make the top 50 oh! and to get as strong as hell.

410 @ 220#(I think that is your class) will put you in the top 50. Problem is, last time I look at the ranking list, SSA meets are not included. Could be wrong? Either way though, you are there.

You are a raw guy right?. I say train and go to a meet where you will be on the list. Then add a few # this coming yr and compete at the Raw Unity Meet in Jan in Tampa-not too far from you. Don't knwo if you read up on it, first yr this yr, a real success for raw and some big names with bigger one likely next yr. Top 10 in each class gets an invite. You can get to 445# and make that list. Plan on attending myself, will put up a raw total this summer. Just an FYI.

I'm right at 220 I weighed in at 217 this morning and pressed 405 with a good pause. So I feel confident about 410 in 3 weeks. What I really want to do is bump up a weight class and add some strength. I want to get to a bodyweight of 240 this year and see how I feel. I may just be to uncomfortable weighing that much but I gotta see. At this weight I'd like to be benchin' 450. So that's my goals this year bench 450 at 240 and make the top 50. I'll definately check into the tampa meet. Thanks Sonny.
