I normally only do a single 3 weeks out at this percent but since I have only pulled conventional one time in 10 weeks I thought a couple extra reps wouldn't hurt.

so it's 19 days out and I have no clue what I am going to do for the DL. I am loosing my mind over thinking sumo but I don't feel as strong conventional. I missed 705 2 seperate weeks last month but I pulled a tough 705 conventional last week. The numbers say I should go conventional based on shear numbers but I still feel in my head that my sumo technique is just in a rut and may show up meet day for a descent pull. I had some back issues early in the meet cycle and had to alter something's and that sent me back to some old ways that helped helped me pull my all time pr of 755. Using those methods actually sent me backwards in strength though. What ever I do will a meet day decision.
