Here's the second part of my article, published with Elite Fitness. :-) I'm working on a #3 now.
Today was rough. I hardly slept last night from spasms. 4 hours, tops. I was pretty tired. I struggled with 165 for 2. Brian says he knows how I work and next week and the week after I'll be fine. I believe him. I'm too hard on myself to be objective about stuff like that. So, one more perk of having someone at my side for every workout. When I can't trust myself, I can trust him cuz he's seen it all in me. I'll be just fine. Deloads + Spasms are not a good combination on me. I was rebounding quite well on Wednesday...I was just extra tired today.
Numbers:
Competition Bench - 150 lbs., 155 lbs., 165 lbs., 160 lbs., all for 2, plus a single at 165 lbs.
Dumbbell Bench - 40 lbs., 50 lbs., 60 lbs., 65 lbs., all for 5.
Triceps Pressdowns - 90 lbs., 10. 110 lbs., 120 lbs., 130 lbs., all for 8...I think I did 2 sets of 130 lbs., but I can't remember.

- I'm 29 years old. I live in Columbiana, Ohio. I was born with Spina Bifida and have no use of my legs. I began lifting weights June 16th, 2008. I decided to train for Powerlifting November 3rd, 2008. My goal is to win a slot on a U.S. Paralympic Powerlifting Team. My Powerlifting Trainer is Brian Raneri. He's the best there is. I'm so thankful to have him in my corner. I've learned that a goal worth reaching is never easy to attain. You have to work at it and fight for it. But, if you do it for yourself and you never stop fighting, no one can take it away from you.
