Lots of salt, electrolytes/water/pedialyte, and go hard on carbs. Keep cats and protein lowish and go to town on carbs.
I weighed in at 196.8lbs and by the time I lifted I was 213 and change

Are you going full meet simulator and packing food to stay at the gym all day or just take like 15-30 minutes between lifts?
I've eaten 3 packs of ramen noodles. 8 kasha blueberry waffles so far. Oh 2 packs of poptarts too just for fun
I'm not gonna be there all day. I'll just take plenty of time between lifts
Well didn't go perfect by any means. Squat was 500. Bench 400. Deadlift 550. At least I know what to work on. Vids will be up at some point. Lifts failed. 515 squat. 575 pull

1450 would get you first place for 198 at most local meets. You could throw on knee wraps and squat 550 your first try and hit 1500. A lot can change in six months anyway.

What was your starting maxes before running the sheiko?
I'm pretty sure my ass lifted on the 400 bench. I had a spotter an ass checker and and the video. He said I didn't from his angle but the video looks like it

2/3 judges is a pass, but something like that would be visible to both side judges.
I'll let you guys call it. Lol. I can't really complain for my first 16weeks of PLing ever. Before this it was just screwing around in the gym
500 squat
385 bench
400 bench
550 pull
[emoji15] [emoji15] That's fucking impressive!! Well done bro.
Way to go Rob. Those are big numbers especially for someone at 198 and only at it for 4 months. What's next? Staying with PLing or back to BBing?
I have a meet planned in September. So I'll be sticking to it for a while.

Good job bud that's one hell of a mock meet and some impressive numbers for someone our size and experience!
Appreciate it man it's still weird to hit everything in the same day still
Well went to the gym tonight and just messed around. Got a little pump. Weight 211. Messed around with 225 on bench for a few sets of 25.
Did some curls. Some tri extensions. Few OHPs. Thinking about packing on some weight and jumping to 220 for a couple months of training to try to add some quick strength and then slowly cut it down once I'm a couple months out from my meet. Really want 1550 at my first meet @198.
Not too shabby for a 16 week PLing program

@Perrin Aybara Question on the RPE program you sent. So I'm making sure I have this correct in my head. For Monday on incline bench. Let's I can do 225 for 10 reps on incline. This means I will only perform 8 reps with 225 since its 8RPE. Now my other question is this. Do I only do one set of that and just do warm ups to figure out what I should be using for weight?
Not Perrin but:
You do light warmups up to about 60-70% of your working weight. You should have a decent idea of what it will be. You can always figure it out by testing your RPEs for max single and set of 5 and fill in a customized RPE chart for yourself. Once you get above 60-70% start working up in weight in sets of 8. You reach your top set when you get x8 @8 which means whatever weight you end up up you can do 8 reps with 2-3reps left in the tank. After that you drop the weight 6-9% for the fatigue percent. And since it says repeats for that particular lift, you repeat the 6-9% reduced weight until it too becomes RPE 8
