A good day in PA..... Went 8/9 with a total of 1215. Placed 1st in the 165 open in a field of 7 competitors. 440 SQ, 275 BP (the one miss was @ 285), 500 DL!! Oh, and got one of them champion of champions thingys for lightweight division. . Settings sights on breaking the 1298 (let's just say 1300) to move into elite ranks. Great meet, great people, great everything. And now to address some great soreness, I'm heading for the couch. New plan of action is already underway. Thanks again to all for advice and support.

Let me be the first to congratulate you! That was a great day against a good group size. Yeah on that 500 DL! You're an awesome lifter (soon to be elite)!

Great meet, great people, great everything. And now to address some great soreness, I'm heading for the couch. New plan of action is already underway. Thanks again to all for advice and support. Original Goals: 455, 300, 480, 1235. Got: 440, 280, 500, 1215. OUTSTANDING! Only one miss is equally outstanding! You initially set some lofty but obtainable goals. You WAY exceeded your deadlift goal and are one good cycle from your squat/bench goals. That is AMAZING training and competition Big! You are one incredible 165 pounder with a really REALLY good 181 total! Folks, I think we have identified our next training partner to have a shot at elite! You deserve the rest. Congratulations again and again! God Bless!

Sorry I am so late with my congratulations... That was an incredible performance. I did some figuring and realized that you squatting 440@165 is like me doing 560@210! I can't imagine even trying a walkout with that much weight! Also, a triple bodyweight plus raw deadlift puts you some rare company. I know that the classification charts say 1298 is elite for a 165 but you are already elite in my book! Once again, great lifting!
