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...

Numbers still going up, reps down. One
more week on this 6 week cycle. I'm gonna
modify things a little with more of a D.U.P.
training scheme. I'll have an "Intensity Day",
"Volume Day", and Hypertrophy Day". Still
using the RPE system which I really like.
