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...

Getting it back. Everything felt easy. I suck at Floor Presses, always have. Will get better at these, I'll do these again in a few weeks. Eating a TON of chicken and beef, potatoes and pasta and rice. GYWU! UFC 144 Saturday should be fun to watch. I plan on training raw for a few weeks before throwing my shirt on. I'll adapt as I've mentioned a Metal Militia style bench routine with my shirt and do a lot more full range benches in my shirt as oppose to doing boards. We'll see how this experiment works out.
