You take bench jumps like I do squats.
Good Lord.

Lifted in a powerlifting meet earlier today. RPS event ‘Winter’s Wrath’ in Lebanon, NH. Kinda mixed results. I bombed on the squat. Just couldn’t make depth. I tried 315 twice. Flew up but was too high. I set two new records for NH/VT in the 50-54 year old, 275 raw division. Benched 350 and deadlifted 475. I went fully raw, no belt or wraps of any kind. Chalk only.

Kainen and I are looking at a meet April 15th in Concord, NH. Only a half hour away. I’ll most likely only bench and deadlift. Squatting is for the young.

Not overly impressive but I have the bench and deadlift records in NH and VT right now.
