Lessons Learned:

Take smaller jumps on bench. Went from 320 to 350 trying to greedily make a 1400 total easy for deads.

I have no idea how to program squats or bench. 10lb PR on squats in 8 months is horrible, even with weight cut. Getting on the 5/3/1 train, while keeping my deadlift training the same.

Read the rulebook closer. My sleeves weren't allowed, and they got rid of thumbless. The former didn't hurt me, the latter killed.

Don't experiment on meet day. Wraps on third attempt squat were stupidly tight. I was wrapped them up to be like sleeves on 2 attempts and had no issues.

Summary: Overall, great meet, great experience, still hungry for more. Learned a lot, got to hang out with Mike Tuchscherer as he put on an exhibition and got his greatest raw total ever. I'm a total freakshow in the deadlift.
