I got lost in Chad's eyes.

8:50 that judge loves his job so much...

My first meet I hit a huge PR on deadlift and got super excited and threw the weight down... I was pretty disappointed in myself haha

I found this super helpful, watched it about 3x. 0.o If anyone is wondering what percent hes suggesting for warm-ups, on squat its: ~ 40%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% Bench: ~ 40%, 55%, 75%, 85%, 92% and Deadlifts: 135lbs, 55%, 75%, 85%

I just wanna say thank you for this guide. Just attended my first meet and having watched the video right before I went really conservative on all openers and felt well prepared for the whole thing. Got 9/9 with only one red light on the first bench and PRs in all three lifts. Very good guide, listen to it guys!

10 weeks out from my first!

Beard hitting the mic is on point *crikkle crikkle*

Who else got lost in Chads koala-fied eyes.

i just did my first meet seriously the most motivating thing iv ever done

watching this while eating chicken nuggets on that #massing life. Also I don't know if Chad is the one controlling the JTS youtube account but he gave me some cues at the New York powerlifting seminar for my deadlift that has helped tremendously, couldn't thank him enough.

Thanks for this man, you're a gift to the sport

thanks so much for this video! really helpful!

Wish I'd had this video before my first meet. Super helpful info, thanks Chad!

This is a great video!! Very informative. Thank you so much

Thank you so much for this video!! I’m so nervous about the rules and process for my first meet in a couple months and this helped a lot!

Thank you Chad and JTS! Being 6 weeks out of my first ever meet (USAPL), this video dropped at an amazing time.

8 weeks out from my first! Rps 148lb teen division. Full power. Raw classic. I’m aiming to beat the state record total which is 770

I'm about to get to my 4th meet but always learning. This is amazing information. Thank you

Really appreciate this video. My son is doing his first meet in a month and this helps a lot!

super informative and helpful. roughly 8 weeks out from my first meet!

great job. was actually thinking about doing my 1st meet this year. One of my friends contacted me about doing one the same time you guys posted this video.

great content as always!

This calmed my nerves. Thanks 👌

Another awesome video from Jugg.

this was really helpful. thanks a lot

I'm 24 days out from my first meet, THANK YOU!

Nice video although I have done a powerlifting meet before, I like the education you gave on warm-ups, great advice

Really informative video - thanks!

This came in handy I'm prepping for my first meet at the moment.

This was such a great video, so many insightful details. Thank-you!!

Great content once again

Just had my meet last saterday, fucking epic! Don't forget to enjoy the day!

This was so useful!

10:08 Wow Ethan, great moves, keep it up, proud of you.

Thank you very much🙌

this is awesome

13 weeks from my first. Thanks for the advice.

Good guy. Thanks!

Great video!

Very helpful! Thank you :)

Great video. Thank you! All the really good points and I will take them all with me to my first powerlifting meet which is in less than a week.

I have my first meet in two days, and I'm super excited about it! Thank you for sharing your knowledge Chad, these are some really great tips! :D

Great tips!

Super helpful.

22:53 that right plate is completely off :| Very informative video. Thank you!

Really Really helpful video All questions are coming in the mind this man give all the answers and additional information Superb information Thanks you sir

GREAT VID

I have my first meet next month, and I am going to use the 150% squat strategy you talked about.

Thank u chad!!! .... those eyes 😍😍😍

Very helpful

Great information, delivered in an easy to digest manner. I should really get off my butt and sign up for a meet lol

very helpful video!

Awesome vid

Thanks for taking the time to make all these great videos. They are hugely helpful. Meet question: 24 hour weigh in? So you can't travel in one day to a meet and be done?

Thanks bro big help

damn early enough there isn't HD yet, very interested in the tips this video has in store, I've competed before, but I'm competing in Collegiate nationals in about 6 weeks so this is still gonna be a worthwhile watch

awesome advice I'm 3 months out from my first meet

Can you make one for weightlifting as well please? I know that the videos would be similar, but I think that the insight could be super helpful for both sports individually and a lot of people would thank you for it!

9 days out from my first meet!

I’ll be competing for the first time tomorrow & im clueless. This helped.

First meets tmrw in 15 and pumped up for it hopefully I can get a state title with a fracture/dislocated wrist🙃

Could you guys do an episode of Squat School with the low bar squat? I feel like my knees aren't coming forward enough, and id like to see what you guys have to say about ankle flexion in lowbar

My first meet is in a little less than 1.5 month.. hoping to put up a 520 total. Awesome video dude thanks

I competed at a local USAPL meet where I was not allowed to use wrist wraps from an unapproved brand. That was 6 years ago, but I would recommend looking up the approved manufacturers just to be safe. USAPL only allows equipment from companies that pay them a kickback.

4 Weeks till my first meet. I haven't been so nervous.

Couldn't follow the content, got lost in Chad's eyes.

At 5 weeks out. This couldn't have come at a better time

What if I am 16-17 age class and I want to register into a meet would I have to get a ID also or do my parents take care of that?

Are only certain brands of equipment allowed at a powerlifting meet depending on federation? Like Inzer and Titan? Or as long as my equipment meets the measurement standards it's allowed?

can you make one for weightlifting!?

Do you take any period of time off before coming into a meet? I’ve heard people say anywhere from 3-5 days off from lifting so they come in fresh. Thanks for the video man. Planning my first in 2022.

Amazing info! I'm looking to join a federation. I would like to join a raw federation.

Wanting to do my first meet I've only been lifting for 8 months and all I have around here is spf wanting to do a good tested federation but I live in arkansas would have to travel for meets 😑

If I can squat 215 lbs bench 140 and deadlift 225 and I weigh 120lbs should I even enter. I’m 16.

Red meat like a sirloin the day of or day before a comp? Mine is at 5-8pm So plenty time to eat before but I was thinking going lean

Did they ever post the video about recomping after the weigh in?

WOW! AN ACTUAL POWER LIFTING MAN WHO ISN'T TRYING TO PORTRAY THE THUG POWER LIFTER THAT KO GYM IN VENTURA EMULATES!

goddamn those eyes 👀

5 weeks out🙏

Is caffeine along with simple carbs recommended during a meet while waiting between different lifts? e.g. coffee with some sugar, energy drinks

I went up in my first or on of my first 3 meets (unsure) after a technicality but it was only because I had the commands down and the weight flew up

Should you use pre workout?

Hi there i have my first meeting in 2 weeks time I’m so nervous 😬 and I was told to cut weight . Now that u said for first meeting not to cut weight now I kinda regret bcoz I don’t know if I lost strength or what it is

Didn’t that one hipster girl make a song about his eyes, ocean eyes?

great advice thanks a lot! i want to do my first meet but i dont know how to find a local meet in my country (luxembourg) powerlifting gets very little recognition in my country...

Can you use suicide grip on the bench in competition?

Will there be a weightlifting version?

When she was vomiting, I was eating oatmeal

I’m 10 pounds over my weight limit and just now finding out that weigh ins for USAPL are on the same day, I’m doomed. I’ve done a couple USPA competitions so I’ve gotten used to the process of doing water cuts
