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...

Max Effort Bench

Competition Bench: 135x5, 225x5, 315x3
Put on Rage-X

2board: 405x1 (First rep was really weird my left wrist buckled, I figure it was due to a not so tight wrap came back and destroyed it) (2 singles) 435x1*
3board: 455x1
4board: 475x1

Incline Blue Band Bench: 135x5, 155x5, 185x6 (took off quarters down to 135x4)

All in all a solid workout. I absolutely destroyed 405 on the second try I mean I smashed it! All of my lifts tonight were solid. I'll work in my shirt again next Monday, work up to my opener, destroy that sucker and build my confidence even more, then figure out my attempts after that. I'll open with around 430-440 and go from there. I should be good for as I've said 470ish I hope.

Still Ripped!
