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

135 6 Singles

205 5 Singles

First training day on the deadlift. I
have set a goal of competing in a push-
pull meet next year. I'm watching
deadlift technique videos at Elitefts
and I'll find others. I am pulling in
the conventional style, feet close and
angled out with a hook grip. I tried to
do standing abs with a band but felt
nothing. Looking for a strong ab movement.
