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...

I desperately need to get into my shirt and get something to a 1-board. If I can touch around 625-635 I'm golden and will open with around 600-606. Got a pr on the pin press today w/615. My year end goal is 672-705. We'll see what happens.

I believe in you. I believe you will be the world record holder one day. You may bomb, it's possible. But I doubt it. If you or I do, we'll do so trying with all our strength to succeed.
