If you ask me, there are many threads more redundant than this one. At least it is training related, has a clear cut goal, current stats and the like.

As for bragging, I agree that the OP definitely should keep things in perspective. That being said, I see no harm in being confident in one’s progress and celebrating achievements as long as it’s not done in an obnoxious manner. Lifting with the bricks would be pushing it, though…

:wink:

Have fun reaching your goal, Zephead.

I personally found this pretty inspiring by the OP’s dedication and determination to the goal. Perhaps that was his point to this thread?

This past May, I personally witnessed a 19 year old pull 500 lbs. at 165 bwt. with just a belt. This was a SonlightPower national raw record if you care to look it up. I believe without a doubt you can beat this if you stay focused and healthy. Best of luck.

24

I just wanted to reiterate how thankful I am for this supportive group of guys. I will not fail at this. Even if I break the record at 17, I still am nowhere near as big or strong as I can be. I will havwe made new and different mistakes along the way that I will learn from.

I pull 435 on monday.

…maybe i should do this

Cool Idea - you’re 17 right? Your lifts have been growing well, I’ve been checking the videos out.

Well, im not by any means knocokcing zep, but NASA is way smaller than USAPL so contention on those records and comps is alot less than USAPL, but maybe theres other reasons he is in NASA like distance, timing and want not. If hes anything like me he competes in ANY fed just to compete, Im entering an SSA meet in 2 omnths and if you aint on powerliftingwatch.com at all you wont even know what that is lol…to OP GREAT numbers at your age, i pulled 405 at 16 football season, 455 at 17 senioor year football season, and I can now pull over 500 at 18 so your easily on your way

NASA has a meet in my home town. I compete in the WHSPA (affiliate of usapl).

181 DL record:
A. LYONS D - 590 3-02 HORLICK

198
J. BERGMANN D -600 3-96 HORTONVILLE

220
N. PETERSON D - 610 3-99 SUPERIOR

The NASA record will be a stepping stone before I can go for the WHSPA record. I need to add over 165 pounds to my deadlift to break this record.

That doesn’t mean I won’t be trying to as a senior. I have a long ways to go.

I realise this. I typed wisconsin powerlifting records into google and the nasa page came up. I figure since I can break that record relatively quickly it would make a great short term goal.

I will deffinately be going for the big record my senior year. Since I can use a 1ply sq/dl suit in WHSPA are singel ply deadlift suits even worth it? what kind of carryover could I expect? I’m probably going to lift at 220 as a senior. Cutting just blows ass, and the record difference is minimal.

31

well are you going to compete in all 3 events or just the dead? if all 3 get a suit and use it for squat and dead. Im a raw competitor, and wrap my knees when certain feds allow it, but that is only because of the cost of good single ply equip and the fact i have no actual “team” or people to help me with my stuff.

If you got people to help you with your gear and willing to buy it, by all means I say explore that to its fullest extent

32

do it man!!

33

Good luck.

Wish I had gotten into T-Nation as early as you. :wink:

Yeah seriously, when I was his age I was wasting time playing video games

35

Same here, when I was 16 i was all about “hanging out with my friends” and “playing hockey” and crap like that.

Lifting rocks.

Smash that fucking record buddy!

36

505 lbs deadlift record in single ply?
As a record? that’s realy bad to be a record.

You’ll have it no problem

Edit:
600lbs sounds more like a record. I think you can make it

37

how do you find the reocrd for deadlift or any lifts for that matter? i cant find them?
im 16 and i deadlift 525 so i was wondering if thats good for my age?

38

wish i was still a teen so i could have all these fancy teen records.

well…i still qualify as “junior”

no idea what the records are but with my 315x5 squat and 275x4 bench i dont think ill be breaking them anytime soon.

39

I’m with you man, looking to destroy a USPF squat record for my age/weight. The dead will follow…!!

For the record, I thought this thread was going to be about making Bolton your bitch.
