it's just another workout where you go all-in on everything. Learn to control the excitement/all that energy is wasted. Keep working on turning it on, and turning it off and just relaxing. In competition, those that can really focus on the lift and turn off all the crowd/noise/distractions, will always do better.

Got into it like you would be competing against yourself. All you can do is do your best, and let the cards fall where they may. If you can do that, be happy with what you accomplished on that day.

once you get one under your belt, you will want to taste more. Because you know, you are trainging for something, and want to improve from the last competitioin. It is an amazing feeling to be in it, than to be watching it. Be in it, have fun, push yourself!
