220 it is...
Went to the sauna at 12:00 with a bodyweight of 208-209...spent an hour in it. I was sweating a lot. My stomach was hurting from the fasting.... i started to feel dizzy so i decided to weight myself at 13:00 to see where i was and it was 205-206... so there was an hour left before weight in and i knew that losing 7-8 pounds in an hour is not easy and could result in performance loss.
At 13:00 October 23, it's the time i decided that i can't lift in the 198 no more. From now on i'm a 220. So went to lunch and drink 1,5 litres of gatorade-water mix with creatine and salt. Weight in at 210. Next few months i'll try to eat a lot and go to a bodyweight of 225. I had a good run in the 198...set some records but i wanted to do more in this class. I will need to work harder and heavier. I was a top gun in the 198, now i'm just a good 220 but hopefully with the help of my team and Mcdonalds, i will be a top 220!! Hey, it ain't over...the sun still shining and it ain't over!
Tommorow is game day, open with 505 bench and 550 deadlift. In the 220 class... :)
