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...

Really happy to get 495 with a reverse monster mini and mini. Definitely am going in the right direction. 545 moved like it should have, fast and light as hell. I plan on going raw through the end of the month, throwing my shirt on, and then it gets real! Damn real!
