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...

I had a sharp pain in right pec
last Sunday and its still with me.
I've had to drop out of the April 2nd
competition. Its not a tear but will
need rehab. So here's the plan:
2 weeks of rest. No lifting.
1 day per week after that of general
lifting, light crossovers, no benching.
Start benching in about 8 weeks. Its
a bummer but there it is. I've got a plan.
I have a clue why it happened (overuse),
and a plan to move forward.
