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...

T-Bone Strength 11-4-08

Explosive Strength Day/M.E. Deadlift

Rack Pulls: Barx5, 135x3, 315x3, 405x3, 495x3, 585x2, 635x1 (missed second rep)
495x6, 545x1

Power Shrugs: 405x5 (5 sets)

Dumbbell Snatches: 105lb Dumbbell for 10 doubles, each arm

Abs: 6 total sets

Got the job done. I really think if I improve my explosive strength it will benefit me long term. I am a complete believer in what Louie Simmons Says: You never want to move a heavy weight slow. The 495x6 was a pr and felt like a toy. I'll be on the island this weekend to observe Veterans Day. I may bench there who knows?
