Summary

You signed up for your first meet: what do you do now? Scott & Matt discuss what to do now.

A huge part of preparing for a meet is realizing the purpose of the meet. The purpose of the meet is to set PRs, give your training a purpose, have some fun, meet some people, and leave feeling encouraged about lifting. Nobody cares who wins.

You should change as little as possible leading up to the meet if it's your first meet. If you're a novice, just keep doing LP. Maybe you can practice some singles and do a super short 2 week "peak," but that's not necessary.

This applies to powerlifting meets and strengthlifting meets. Go set PRs. It doesn't really matter if the league doesn't enforce squat depth: squat to full depth. 

So, sign up for a meet, have some fun, set some PRs, and continue your lifting path.

Hey listeners, this is normally when we would talk about a holiday sale or how

0:07.4

now is the right time to start with online coaching because of how much money

0:10.5

you can save. However, as I met with our marketing team earlier this month to

0:14.8

discuss promotional ideas, we found ourselves focusing on the ideal outcomes

0:19.3

for people who want to work with a coach and that called to mind how many of

0:23.1

our clients got into this for the form corrections and ended up making real

0:27.8

life transformations through strength training. We realized that the ideal

0:31.9

barbell logic client is not afraid of hard work. They don't just have goals, they

0:36.5

are driven by continual self-improvement. They pursue strength because they

0:40.7

care deeply about the people who they love who depend on them. We know that

0:45.6

price is always a consideration when it comes to deciding to sign up for

0:48.9

something. But our successful clients tell us that in addition to carefully

0:53.0

deciding where to invest their money, they're also very intentional about how they

0:57.3

invest their time. And when you care about your time that much, there is fear that

1:01.8

you could waste your time and not see the results you want. If any of this sounds

1:05.9

like you, I'm here to make you a promise. You give us six months of two to four

1:10.8

workouts a week and if you don't see changes in your strength or form, we will

1:14.9

give you all of your money back. That's all six months. The worst case scenario is

1:20.2

it ends up costing you nothing. The best case scenario is you invest in yourself

1:24.7

and you get exactly what you want out of your training. The only risk is about

1:28.7

on yourself. It's time to place that bet and put your money where your goals are.
