I'm 3 weeks out from my next PL Meet. It's all raw this time. No suited, strapped etc people there.
I'm pretty confident I can win the 55-60 yr old 260lb-unlimited class as well as placing in the top three overall. At least I think I can.
Anyway, I doing one rep sets of max weights after warm ups. So I've got 780lbs on the bar, have my spotter behind me yelling at me, I go down with the weight and when I hit bottom I smell it. Some pretty boy has walked in and is wearing cologne.
I got the weight up but was so distracted by it that I literally puked from the smell.
So now I'm angry and have a mess to clean up. I clean up my mess dropping weight down to 755lbs for anotehr rep. As I'm going down this older guy (yes older than me) walks over to the squat rack where I am and takes some 5lb weights off of trhe rack. My concentration is blown at trhis point but I get the weight up.
I racked the weight and lit into this old guy. I scared him so bad he was literally crying apologizing. And now I'm feeling like a jerk for scaring the dude. I guess if I had a 280lb Outlaw screaming at me I might be taken back a bit. I apologized to the guy and aschooled him on gym etiquette.
But I felt so much better.
