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...

Recovery Day 1

Front Squats
Bar
95x5
115x5

2-Board Press
Bar
135x10
205x5 3 Sets

Rope Push-downs
130x10 4 Sets

Floor Hyper-extensions
2x10

Haven't done front squats for a long,
long time. Used the strap method to
position the bar on my clavicle. I like
them. The 2-Board Press is my attempt
to allow my left shoulder to miraculously
heal and still get stronger. We'll see. The
push-downs have got to be progressive.
I've been doing whatever with them and
its a waste of time. The hypers had a ROM
of about 3-inches. Gotta come up with a
better plan for these.Obviously I've added
an extra recovery day to the standard Texas
Method. Its the Over-60 Texas Method.
