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...

Deadlift and more Deadlift

Deadlifts: 135x5, 225x5, 315x3, 405x3, 455x2
335 8 sets of 3

Deadlifts off a platform: 315 6 sets of 2

RDL's: 5x5 w/365

Front Squats: 315 4x4

Leg Curls: 3 sets of 12

Trying an entire new approach to deadlifting. I'm going to lift without my belt but also throw in deadlifts where I'm pulling farther than normal. I think this will help my acceleration off the floor which is where my real sticking point is. My entire Strongman/Powerlifting hybrid routine is in full effect and I'm really looking forward to the results. I should try out my new Super Phenom on Monday so it should be interesting to see if I can get anything to touch.

When will my next show be? Stay tuned!
