Throwing Leather & Banning Metros

I changed the name of the log so that a) people wont think i am a woman, and b) to remind myself that i have commited to competing in 2007

I would rather compete in a strongman contest, but I havent been able to find anything that has weight classes, so powerlifting it is. I am currently stranded in the south pacific for another 6 months at least, so i am looking to compete in the last quarter of 2007.

I will compete in either the 165's or 181 lb weight class and want to total around 1150. To do this, i want to reach PR's of the following before competing

Squat: 375
Deadlift: 475
Bench: 300

I am currently at around 1050, at a weight of 165-170 lbs
