FINALLY!!!!! 500+lbs bench and 600+lbs deadlift!!!!
I had an absolutely awesome meet this weekend. I hit a couple huge milestones in powerlifting. This was one of the better meets ive been to, Bret Kernoff did an awesome job. This is how the weekend went for me...
opened with 462/210kilos just to get in the groove, seat the shirt. as you can see it was a little wobbly on the way down, hard as fuck to touch. I got one redlight, he said my ass came off. you be the judge...thats called LEG DRIVE kiddies 1st Bench
485lbs/220kgs this weight felt soo much better, it was pretty damn easy i must say. smoked it... 2nd Bench
507lbs/230kgs felt just as easy as the 485. My partners, the judges, they all said i would have given 540-550 a ride, but i ran out of attempts. 3rd Bench
and just for fun lol.... a shot at the 567.5lb/257.5kg APF junior 198 National record. I felt great lifting, the weights were flying up so i was like why the fuck not right? I know i can control this much weight easily so i wasnt worried about getting hurt. and a bunch of guys were pushing me to try it. two weeks ago i locked out 600lbs off a 4.5" board, so i figured i had a shot. 4th Bench (record attempt) watch out...6 months its mine
and i only have one deadlift attempt for you because my gf forgot to get the first two, but i went 518/235kg 551/250kg 601/272.5kg. Felt great even after 4 bench attempts, i think 610-615 wasnt out of reach 3rd Deadlift
anyways this was a great push/pull for me, and i still have over 1 year as a junior, so a few records will fall within the next year or so. I wish there were more full powermeets around newengland, but unfortunatly im stuck doing push-pulls most of the time.
btw i would have won the best lifter award, but my training partner, the guy handing off to me beat me by 2.5 kilos (we are both 198). bastard! he got a bigass sword too wtf.
