I have gotten significantly weaker accross the board. My technique has improved and is masking the fact that I can no longer squat, bench, deadlift or power jerk/push press what I used to be able to.
I am starting to experience this exact same phenomenon. I'm hoping the guys programming for me start to up the strength work a bit after my technique improves so I don't have to go rogue.

When is your next meet?

I am glad I am not the only one! I was beginning to think I was just starting to get old, lol. I might do a meet in October, I forget the date, just a tune up kind of meet. My next real meet will be in mid January.
 
Nice. Are you going to do any of the big meets next year like the Arnold or nationals?

I think I will be screwed for Nationals, if I can qualliy. I am getting married the first weekend of July, and the Honeymoon will be 10 days in Europe. I always thought they were in June, that would have worked out perfectly. I think I might try for the Arnold though.

Well, congrats on the impending marriage. I guess I assumed nationals would be in June, per usual, not that it makes much difference to me.

You'll have to let me know if you compete at the Arnold. I am pretty sure we have a group of guys going down to watch/compete.

Thanks, I thought it was the end of June too, I am hoping it was a typo on the website.

Will do.
