Keep your internal volume low until the day of the meet, no sense in getting burned out on adrenaline before you even lift, once the volume is up, keep it up, feed off everyone else around you. Open conservative with something you know you can hit an east double with, make your second attempt close to a PR, if not a PR, if you get 2 or 3 whites on 2nd attempt, shoot for the stars on 3rd attempt. Don’t be ashamed of missing lifts, an old coach told me if you go 9-9 in a meet, you’re not trying hard enough. I did competitions for almost 20 years, I miss it every time I see one of my friends getting ready for a meet.
