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...

Solid session all around. I believe Big Steve is attending his family reunion so I trained alone. I've been wanting to establish a raw reverse band full range max for quite sometime. I'm fairly pleased with how well this session went. Nailed a solid 475 and I was good for maybe 500. I've been walking up and down stairs like crazy at work and I think the extra cardio I'm doing is really helping me with recovery time. Next week I hope that Steve is back because I'm going to hit some stupid number to a 3 board and work it down to a 1 board and then its on to Laughlin, Nevada for the AAU Worlds!
