Goals for the next 12-18 months

[Velkar182]

I was wondering what everyone's goals for the next 12-18 months were.
My goals are as follows: I want to hit 800+ in a three lift meet with a single ply (w/ Hardcore). I've done it with token lifts, but I was spent. I want to eclipse 600 on the bench with my rage X. I have missed 550+ 6 or 7 times mostly because the usapl sucks and I don't come up evenly. The pause kills me. On the bright side my best deadlift in comp is 595 and recently I hit 625 (raw) without cycling and preparing for a comp, so I hope to hit 700-710 by mid next year. I was also thinking about using my Hardcore for the deadlift (I DL sumo). My biggest goal is to move my PR from 1850 to over 2000. If I move from usapl this will happen pretty easily considering everything is single ply and things like briefs aren't allowed. So I'd like to hit 2000 sinlge ply.
On top of this I'd like to get back into the 275's.
Let me know what your goals are or comment on mine.

I would like to add 30lbs. to my raw bench,75lbs. to my raw squat and 100lbs. to my raw sumo DL.That would put my geared total at +/-1805 in the 220 class.

i want to break the american records in the teen division for squat and total...
the squat is 677... im hoping for a good day and to hit 700+ i hit a 640 my last meet and my equipment wasnt the greatest in april but my lifts have been skyrocketing since then since i just started powerlifting recently.. the total record is 1685 i believe so hopefully i can get a 1700+

I use the wsbb template 96-129 hrs between SQ?DL days with a twist,say on the first SQ/DL day I train SQ as my ME well I'll train DL speedwork somewhere during this sesion mostly as a secondary.Next SQ/DL day Suno DL will be my primary and SQ speedwork will be my secondary.The reason I train for both in the same s day is that I've tried the to train the SQ at the beginning of the week and DL at the end of the week and found that when SQ day rolled back around on monday that my hams were too burnt,so thats why I like the 96-120 hrs of recovery betwwen them,you can check out my specific workouts in my log that I've beenposting on this forum,I've kept posted so it should be near the top of the page.

This is something I did this past year for the squat. One of the things I do with squat is start with a three week endurance routine for legs. leg press, squat, whatever. Then I do a ten week WSB style squat routine with DE and ME. I take two weeks off, or do only technique lifting, then I do a 12 week cycle. This gets a bit complicated because It involves wave training, lots of lock outs, box squatting and lots of hamstring work. One thing I can say that helped me add precious punds on the squat is changing my stance around. But especially getting my competition stance as wide as possible. From there you need only the most freakish hamstrings and strongest hips possible.

For the bench, I habve a physical advantage. My arms are 2'' shorter than my brother's arms and he is 2'' shorter than I am and my chest is the size of guys that are 100lbs heavier than I am.
What I do is mix it up. I do pauses, board presses, bands, chains, DE, ME any bench workout you can think of. But beyond that I believe in push presses, standing presses and military presses. I also have a special 8-9 day off season program where I mix DE and ME with two other tri work outs. One is a light tri workout and the other is a heavy tri wo. The light day involves movements that hit the weaker head of the tris. The heavy day means close grip bench, JM's, floor presses, high lockouts and 4 or more board presses.
