for a jv powerlifting meet, what would be the norm for squat. i aint never done powerlifting before so im 225 whatever class that puts me at.

[raiderpride]

for a jv meet in that weight class.....id say between 300 and 400 to be a good squat, about 250 bench, and about 350-400 deadlift. those would do good for jv.

One to look for this year, kyle gillam, from lumberton, deadlift is his strong point, great lifter, i think he managed 600 last year (sophomore) this should be a record year for him if not his senior year, just keep and eye out for him

[Hf Dline]

ok in powerlifting do you compete in all 3 events or do you choose what you compete in? like i said i aint never done this before.

[outanup]

In high school meets its all three.

[raiderpride]

its gonna be all three lifts, with three shots at each one, if you miss all three lifts you scratch out of the meet completely, best thing is start with a weight you can undoubtedly do, just to be sure your staying, another thing, squat suits and knee wraps will add about 40 to 50lbs to your max depending on the person some people it adds more just for the mentality of knowing it

a knee rap. thats like one of them knee braces right? with the hole in the middle of it with the padding around it

I cant wait until Powerlifting starts! only thing I dont like about them is the loooong meets ( like anahuac.)

uh no lol you wish thats what it was, haha, its kind of like the tightest ace bandage you could ever imagine, some schools dont use them but they all should, not only does it protect the lifters knee in case of an accident it also works kind of like a spring, though it bruises and bleeds most of the times lol you get used too it and its worth it

[king]

And if you have never wore on a knee wrap you got something coming for ya ..they hurt especially after a heavy lift! 

[raiderpride]

lol oh yeah it hurts real bad, but your sure glad you have em cause that weight seems alot easier with the support of em lol

chase ferguson senior vidor squat 650 bench 500 deadlift 550

the girls 165 weight class better watch out. i'm taking over  :-*

[HFLOVESBROCK]

what about hf's calvin johnson? he's been to state three years and counting... he also happened to get third at state last year...YA BETTA GET READY

[Fat Daddy]

If this powerhouse from vidor would focus on his lower body he might be unstoppable. A bench of 500 should produce a 2000 total. That means a 750 squat and a 750 deadlift.

hey before you start  downing a kid maybe you should ask why he only squats and deadlifts that weight. howabout last year he had knee surgery about 3 weeks before powerlifting stated and this year he will have surgery again after powerlifting. maybe that's why his deadlift and squat are not were you would like them. as a soph in high school he squatted 600 so go with that pal....
