Done all of these feats before except never squatted 220 without wraps. My knob goes where I go most of the time. Except the other day I think I saw it squidding at woodman point.
Sub 20% bf @ 85kg BW
Squat 140kg 1.R.M
Deadlift 200kg 1.R.M
Bench 120kg 1.R.M
Military Press 85kg 1.R.M
Some of the above looks rather fantastical at the moment but 12 months is a plenty time to work on it, with consistency and a bit of grit added for good measure.

my biggest goal is to improve,not sure what weight class ill be competing in so cant say what numbers ill be aiming for and some good lifters have turned 40 this year.
i think to keep winning at m1 level im going to have to cut to 74 however thats pretty small physically for me,and will be hard to do.

Hey Gerry, just curious if you had the choice of lifting either as much as you possibly could (forgetting about weight) and possibly not winning or lifting less than you were capable of at a lighter weight in order to win, what one would you choose?
option b.i think if i had a job where i wasnt moving as much,then id reconsider.i havent competed that long,in fact i havent lifted for that long.im making the most of my limited talent.
ill get beaten as the standard improves and better lifters get older and move into the m1s.i think i can travel overseas and pull off another unlikely win though but thats a long way away and assuming a lot.
however some guys have been doing this since they were kids basically.they have moved tonnes upon tonnes and are probably finished by the time they are 40.i havent been subject to the same stresses.i dont lift that heavy.
Sure is.. I'm more into functional strength training, sounds sissy but I strength train for carryover effects into other incidental sports that I play, and for work where I have to do heaps of lifting - fits in more with PLing I guess due to the focus on the big 4. Not BB'ing (haven't done a BB curl in years)

OK so here's my set of goals for 2015 (takes deep breath lol):
modest goals as it will take time for me to build up strength etc after rehab.
Let's say by Xmas
PL
Bench - get that 50kg PB (or more if I'm delusional)
Deadlift - 130kg
Squat - TBA too hard to say right now
Possible comp towards end of year if all is OK.
Body Comp
Regain lost FFM (hopefully 2kg by end of year min) and maybe lose a bit of fat (max 2kg fat loss)
Stay in 48kg weight class if I can but with better power to weight ratio.
