A missed total, a new PR, and a knee that spoke louder than the crowd—this one is a real look at how strength goals collide with game day reality. We walk you through a powerlifting meet built around a 1500-pound target, the strategy behind nine attempts, and what happens when your bench deserts you but your deadlift shows up big at 600 pounds. If you’ve ever wondered why platform numbers don’t always match gym PRs, you’ll get a candid breakdown of peaking, tapering, and the small details that swing a lift, from handoff timing to bar path.

We also dig into the hidden costs of cutting weight. Dropping below the class line felt like a win until the squat turned and the knee popped. That moment opens a practical talk about fueling, sauna time, recovery, and how to balance adrenaline with joint health. We cover drug testing and WADA oversight, how federations differ on handoffs and gear, and why belts, sleeves, and shoe choices nudge your technique more than you think. On the coaching side, we share real transformations—like a client shedding 60-plus pounds—and why many “regular” lifters end up chasing their strength as a way to stay consistent.

Cardio gets real, too. One mile outside can humble anyone who thought a treadmill pace told the whole story. We compare conversation-speed running, hills that punish, sports mileage across football, soccer, and basketball, and the truth about step counts versus the 10k myth. The theme that ties it all together: smart training lives at the intersection of ambition and recovery. To keep it human, we trade movie picks—from Prey to Predator Badlands and Reno 911—plus a gripe about streaming rentals and gas prices that hit harder than a heavy squat.

Subscribe, share with a friend who lifts or runs, and drop a review with your biggest takeaway. What goal are you setting—and what will you change this week to hit it?

Powerlifting Meet Recap And Total Goals

SPEAKER_01

I know we're the only ones. Yeah. But it's been like that forever. So it's yeah.

SPEAKER_04

But no, I was uh reason I didn't show up last week because I was getting ready for my powerlifting competition. How'd it go? Didn't want to exert any energy. Uh I'm conflicted still. So if anybody out there in podcast land has been paying attention to the Instagram, and if you haven't, go ahead and follow me, B Y L dot training. I've been on this campaign. If you want to pay me, I'll drop my Zill. Nah, uh, I've been on this little campaign. So in the sport of power lifting, you have nine lifts, right? And you have three attempts between the squat, the bench, the deadlift. You want a bench, squat, deadlift, as heavy as you can. The heaviest lift gives you the total, which is the score. So I was trying to total 1,500 pounds. I didn't make it. Deadlift. What did you get squat? 1422. 78 pounds. There you go. Where did you come up short? Well, bench press. Uh yeah, actually, bench, I w I went one for three on bench, one for three ones. How much did you bench? Uh shot. Most I hit was 375.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

I was only able to hit 364 at the meet.

SPEAKER_01

And that's funny. How you can lift something, and then you think you're just gonna lift it all the time. And some days it's just like it just ain't there. You'd be like, damn, I just did this shit like seven times the other day. Today I'm gonna be doing it three.

SPEAKER_04

Can you uh use performance enhancing? Can you use performance enhancing? No, not in not in not an affair that I'm in. It's a drug test affair. Okay. Yeah. They do drug tests. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

I mean for the top the lifters. Like me, I'm not a I'm not a top level guy by any means, but you know, that off can off chance that they do. Fuck around and get popped for a local event. That'd be dumb. Oh, no, that's right.

SPEAKER_01

They they test for the um the uh the track. The track it's the it's the exact same people at test.

SPEAKER_02

They test your urine or they take blood?

SPEAKER_04

Urine. Oh, okay. Yeah. Well shit, I think I think they do blood too. Oh, damn, they serious. Yeah, well, the the federation I'm in, they they go through Wada, which is a third test, a third party uh testing agency. And they they're with the Olympics too.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that's who does uh the track.

Drug Testing, Federations, And Fair Play

SPEAKER_04

So how often are that are the events? How often? Yeah. Shit, there's uh there's a meet every weekend. So how often do you compete? Meet uh twice, sometimes three times a year. Okay. Once a quarter. Yeah. So what would spark a test? So if your if your deaths are that much greater, it's random. It's random.

SPEAKER_03

It's just random.

SPEAKER_04

It's random. But yeah, that that would put me on the radar. Say, so my last meet before this one was in May. Yeah. And I totaled uh 1345 or something.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

If I would have totaled like saying 1800. 1800. Yeah. Oh, hell yeah. This nigga's on the radar. Yeah. 100%. So excuse me. Yeah. Excuse me. But other than that, don't be in this cup. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. You see this cup? You see that bathroom?

SPEAKER_02

We're gonna need you to fill this up. Follow me.

SPEAKER_04

So so yeah, the uh the meat didn't go how I wanted it to go. I did get my 600-pound deadlift on record. I did it once before in the gym, uh, like in September. Pull something.

SPEAKER_01

Do you hey when you do it? Do you you do you feel hyped? Nah. I mean, because I'm here here's the thing. I'm gonna tell you why. I'm an aesthetic lifter. So, not shitting on power lifters, but I'm just like, God damn. But I mean, I know everybody, everybody. I get hype when I get 300 things.

SPEAKER_02

I put two three plates on.

SPEAKER_01

But no, that but that's what I'm saying. I'm just sitting up here thinking, like, so like it's I mean, it's competition, right?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. So you're competing against other people. Yeah. So I would get like I would just get hype from that aspect. Like, it's uh drop that weight. It's a good way to get the competitive juices out without uh, you know, trying to hit somebody, without trying to hit somebody or or maybe maybe physically fucking yourself up. Because, you know, there are times where you will be, you know, sore and everything and walk away with a little inner injuries. Shit, I'd actually fuck my knee up um on my second squat, which was in the beginning of the meet. So I did the rest of it with a bad knee. Do you think it was because of too much weight or are you just bad form? Nah, I think it was um how much did you squat? Uh four, so I I hit my opener, which was 440, and I went up to 468.

SPEAKER_01

That don't even sound realistic.

SPEAKER_04

And uh, it wasn't it wasn't bad form, it wasn't bad technique. I think what it was is that um, no, I wasn't overtrained, because I'll get to that in a second. So I think it was um, I think I cut too much weight. Like I think I put too much because I started that Monday at 265 and I competed at 261. And I really actually weighed in that morning at 260. So that five pounds actually hurt you? Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

It's like, yeah, man, and shit. In reality, the uh the cutoff is 264. Like I had to be at 264 or under. And I I cut way too much. Wait, weight, what's the weight classes like?

SPEAKER_03

Like is that like super heavyweight or uh it's just below super heavy.

SPEAKER_04

So I guess heavyweight. Heavyweight. But um, to get back to the overtraining thing, nah, it wasn't it wasn't that I over-trained, because a week before I stopped training, or that week I stopped training. So I just let all that fatigue run off. Okay, because like the week of the meet, I was in a sauna from Monday, Tuesday, I think Wednesday. So that was helping my my body recover from all the shit that I did for the last 10-12 weeks.

SPEAKER_03

So at that point, you just gotta kind of rely on muscle memory. I mean recovery.

SPEAKER_04

Pretty much it's it's it's muscle memory, it's like you do all this shit during prep, you beat yourself up, you beat yourself up, drive up fatigue, and then you try to wash it all away so that but that way by the time competition comes, you're pretty much superhuman. You recovered that. Yeah. Yeah, it's called peaking. Interesting. So, yeah, I think I just fucked myself up because it was too much of a cut.

SPEAKER_03

That's crazy. Yeah, man. Did you have to drop the weight? Like when you went down at that 468, did you drop it or did you?

SPEAKER_04

No, no, I didn't. I just I was going down, going down into the hole, and as I was standing up, I felt the shit pop, and I was like, nah.

SPEAKER_01

With your knee?

Injury, Weight Cuts, And Peaking Strategy

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. And you can't really I'll show it to you. You can't really tell that it happened. You can't you can't you can't really tell that it happened. It's just one of those things. That's crazy. So that's that's the full. That's a 55-pounder. You know, that because at our gym, you know, those red ones are 55 pounds. It happened right there. As soon as uh as soon as I didn't know, so that's that's when I would have tapped out right there. Ah he was hype. I couldn't, I I had a job to do, man. Yeah, yeah. I wanted to get that total. And I and because I didn't just because I didn't hit that that second squat, so my third squat was gonna be 485. So I already, for six months, I've been thinking about these numbers. I needed to squat 485, bench 391, and deadlift 628. I deadlifted 617, uh, benched 363, and squatted 440. Wow. So shitty day overall, uh, objectively speaking. Yeah. But everything, everything I did on the on the platform was a PR. From the three of us, we are all disappointed in you. Oh, I'm I'm very disappointed in that. It's not sufficient enough. Matter of fact, turn his mic off. Nah, dog. That's that just keep grinding.

SPEAKER_00

I'm not getting under all that way. You did better than me. Yeah, because I'm not even getting in there. No, no. I would have been one of them dudes that's up there shaking with it. You said you want me to go down.

SPEAKER_04

The videos where they go to deadlift and then they back off and they pass off. Hey, that's you know what?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I got a thing where I say you see where he did his little stomp. Yeah. I said, Oh shit.

SPEAKER_04

I got it. Where you go? Hey, it's funny, it's funny though, because that to me, I don't know if it's psychological or what, but that shit actually makes the bar feel lighter.

SPEAKER_02

What's that?

SPEAKER_04

When I just when I stomp in the ground. Because I used to I used to get under it and just beat my back into it, and that shit makes it feel lighter too. Yeah. I mean, who okay? So I I was following this dude on Instagram, and I think y'all seen him. Oh, I can't remember the gym name. Um, but anyways, this is these group of guys, and the the older dude in the gym, like they they have to do, I'll find it for y'all and send it to y'all. But he slaps them on the back before they go squat. No, don't don't don't slap me.

SPEAKER_05

POW!

SPEAKER_04

Don't slap me. Oh man, slaps them on the back, right? Yeah, okay. And they get under the bar and they go down and they come back up, right? I'm like, hell no, man. Hey, man. But I'm like them. I live for aesthetics now. You and I can't. You slap me, I'm fighting. That's a lot of weight. Listen, I'm not doing it.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

You don't do personal. I'm not going over I don't do that type 50. 225 squat. I ain't let no bitch slap me. What makes you think I'm gonna let your ass slap me? I ain't going over 185 squat. I ain't going, no.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01

You don't want to wear the uh the little weightlifting shoes. He does. He got the little dim ones. I don't like them. I thought he had the he had the uh I thought you he had on Chuck Taylor. Oh yeah, Chuck. Yeah, they were Chuck.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_04

Oh, I've never put them in. So they I haven't either, but they pitch, they force you to go into a position you don't really want to be in. Because they're angled forward, right? Yeah. Yeah, I've seen them. Yeah. Like the the heel is like that. Oh, hell yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And Shira look like a power lifter. A little bit low-key. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_04

Gear, Technique, And Bench Rules

SPEAKER_01

That's why I'm like, hey, Steve, my spotter. Yeah, like it's we know just how each other live.

SPEAKER_04

Because other other and other federations do let their uh their lifters have their own their own handoff spotter, but not in mine. I don't know why, but yeah. Whoa, man, it would cause a whole lot less stress if if somebody who knew how you like to get the handoff was able to give you the handoff, but they just don't like they don't allow it.

SPEAKER_02

Man, I think I only uh almost fell on you one time when I lost my balance. I stood up on the incline. You had all that weight on there. I stood up on the bar. I said, whoa!

SPEAKER_01

Oh, we were doing 225 in the inclines the other day.

SPEAKER_04

Damn, hold on. Y'all why y'all stunting on that?

SPEAKER_01

All 10. Shit stunting. And we was just going down.

unknown

Man.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_01

Hey, oh my upper chest. I died. My upper chest locked up. I don't think I have ever done that. I was doing something and it was oh, I just remember it locked up. I was sitting up there like the chick in the uh Olympics doing the breakdancing.

SPEAKER_04

Hell no. That's the worst though. When your shit locked up on you, man. Oh man.

SPEAKER_01

I think that's one of my weak is like is like I can incline, but my shoulders when I'm doing something, or like really the the real the real in because that LA fitness, that's too deep. That's too deep. They say the real incline is like like I think they say like 30 degrees. 30 degrees. So just above the bench, right? Yeah, just yep, just above the bench. At least they say, because that I forget what they said it. I don't, I mean, I've seen it like years ago, and then I mean the one at LA Fitness is still good, but I don't think it's the true nah. It's not a true like a real like it's too deep for an incline.

SPEAKER_04

It's more of a because no matter what slanted shoulder press. I move my hands and like the shit don't feel right. Oh, on incline at LA Fitness, like I can't. I can't I can't touch my chest. Yeah, and I'm not I'm not a stiff dude. I can actually, you know. I I kind of avoid the bar incline. I always try to do the the dumbbells. The dumbbells, yeah. Because like you said, it doesn't feel natural. Right. So you kind of feel like let me just go over.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I do that too. I had to because I had to stretch on that very first one. I'll be coming down, I had to go slow because I'm like, yeah, man, this is the shit. Then it calms down.

SPEAKER_04

Hey, this this nigga used to scare me uh when he benched. Don't you like to sit the bar like right here and you don't even touch the shit. I know, but the shit is scary, especially when you be flaring your shit. I ain't never dropped it. I know, and that's that's what this nigga said, too. I said, No, I just sit there and watch it. I'll be like, but I mean, when you turn your wrist, right? You want to keep your wrist straight, right? But yeah, but yeah, if you lock it in, I just lock it in. Have you seen him bench? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Like he he is right here, and then he flicks. Like the shit is the weirdest thing I've ever seen. He's strong. Yeah, he was fucking brawlic. It was like four, you had like 405 on the bench.

I mean, it was it was way was way back in the day, but Joe got some shoulder press. He was rapping it. I said out of control. It was probably lifting.

I am falling in love with the running cart. Now y'all know we do the hill. That ain't going nowhere. But it's still a difference because when you're going up the hill, we're not gonna run down, we just walk. So that shit is brutal. We be on these little pathways, but I don't want y'all to think like, oh, okay, I'm getting ready for a marathon or half marathon. I am not running over one mile. That's my goal. I'm just one mile, that's it. You should do a 5k. No, no, that's 3.25 miles. I'm not doing it. I'll walk it. You can run the first mile and walk. No, dude, listen. Just run it as fast as you can. A couple days ago, I sat up here and I ran a mile. We ran 0.5 miles in, 0.5 back. Now. Sounds like a mile to me. I sat up here and I started off like Faith Kip Agon.

I started off like Faith Kipieagon, right? Right now, I finished like Bosco. I said, hell no. But I had to do it twice. Right. So some days in between. So now you gotta do it.
