How I Took My Powerlifting Total from 1275 to 1355 | Episode 12
Last week I competed in my second powerlifting meet and made this episode to share some of my training and competition techniques that helped me add 80 pounds to my total in 5 months. If you are new to powerlifting and want to get a foundational understanding of the lifts and the sport, I would refer you to episode 6, which is where I discuss my first powerlifting meet. Expect to learn about the function of a powerlifting peak week, what reverse pyramid training is, powerlifter nutrition, and more.
