A little about me

I have competed in both Olympic Weightlifting and Bench-Only Lifting. I competed in Olympic Lifting as a kid. Best lifts of 255 Olympic Press, 225 Snatch, 255 Clean & Jerk. I met many of the great lifters and coaches from the 60's and 70's. After a 20-year break to serve my country I started lifting regularly again and competing in Bench-Only. Best Lift: 419lbs "equipped".

Feel free to follow along on the adventure...

Speed Bench Day

Flat Bench:10x3x275 (Went pretty fast and quick)
Rolling Triceps: 3x10x55
Front Raises:3x8x40lb dumbbell
Bent Over Raises:3x8x50
Side Raises:2x12x55


Nice solid Workout, felt pretty good afterwards. My shoulders feel great and 275 was so so easy. I went on the assumption that with a shirt I can push 465 which I'm thinking is fairly realistic so I took 60% and that was roughly 275 so I used it. I need stronger lats to lower the bar faster while still maintaining control. Still, good stuff.
