For me. Abs and cardio all week. Just prepping for next weeks drive for the 100% World Championship belt (3). Monday I will be maxing out. My goal 440. 10 and 20 lbs under the present world record. My final goal. 500 LBS by Worlds.
The wife is feeling better. She starts her program today. Back to coaching. My second favorite thing to do in this sport.

I have never used Tribustal but you have me very curious. I amgoing to order some for my next cycle when I prepare for Amercan Challenge in June. Ialso plan on going to the Worlds so maybe I will meet you there. I was able to win a belt last year in the Masters division but had no shot in the OPEn . I will probably drop down to 198 this year, for health reasons and to be more competitive.

When you order. Tell them Bill Blackstone turned you on to this. He will enjoy that little tid bit of information. Any questions, just contact Ramsey Rodriguez. He will be happy to answer all your product questions. They claim by the end of this year the product should be even better. I cant wait. |

I may try that tribustol because if a brother in Christ says its worth a try and it works - then I'm all for it. Good to see another brother on here bangin' weights. Nice job on the bench too.

Took the last week off. Went to the new gym. Wow. What a great place. This whole time I was so close to it. Three blocks from church. Talk about GOD will provide!!!

BW. 236
135x10
225x7
315x3

Little bit of a struggle from chest to shoulders. I feel that is do to loosing my shoulders at lift off. Still I made it. Comp pause and all. I see 500 on the horizon. Look out world record. Your about to be buried! Plus my target for those who do not know. First man over the age of 50 under the Body weight of 250 to bench 500 lbs RAW Drug free.

Worlds in November. I want Paul Bossi to referee the lift.
May do it sooner if possible. Nationals or something to that matter. I just want to be sure I have a 100% certified 100% RAW judge there to record the lift.
World record 440.........for now. See ya!
National Record.......... 465.6 Best national record in the world.
Won't be to long when that changes.

The bench is coming along nicely. I am hoping to do the World's in November depending on money situation. My wife was just told her company is cutting some positions and her job is one of them.Hopefully she will find a job soon.

I had to take a company vehicle home today. That stinks because my boards are in my car. So just sets of three.
135x10
225x7
315x3
405x3
425x3 3 sets
450x1 easy easy easy. Wanted to go for two. I feel I could have simply hit it. But I did what I planned and I need to stick to the plan. I have a huge fear of injury. At 52 I don't mend as well. If I always stay true to the plan I should escape with out injury until after worlds.

You have a great bench especially for some one who is 52.Great job.Being older myself it is great to see so many people lifting well into their 50's and 60's. You were a force tobe reckoned with before and you are still the man.

AWWWW ya made me blush. Thanks. It feels good knowing that even at 52. I can still push some serious weight. I cant wait to compete and show everybody what can be done. Once you put your mind to it.
