- Yeah I thought we were around the same age
12/2/17 meet recap. This is the first meet Iāve squatted in since I was in my 30s. I was just a bit high squatting 540. But Iāll get it next meet. Iāve benched 405 in several meets. So after 395 went up so easy I figured Iād try 410. I just couldnāt lock it out. And I only took two deadlifts attempts after my low back tweeked with 550. Now I have a 1450 total to try and beat.
One thing I wont do again is try and make weight. I was 280 on Monday and weighed in at 270 yesterday. Made me feel too drained today.

awesome stuff Steve!, sorry to read you tweaked your backā¦hopefully you had a good time at the meetā¦
Thanks for sharing! Looked strong regardless! Hope the back feels better soon!
Paul, I had a good time but it was a long day. things were well run but there were 60 something lifters so each lift took three hours. Iām definitely signing up for the meet in April. And thankfully my back feels good today.
Chickenlittle, I enjoy sharing those videos here because you all are the only people I know who will appreciate them. Iām surprised and thankful my back feels ok today. Usually when my back tweeks or pops like that Iām in pain for several days.

Looked good man, I thought youād still be in bed :)ā¦I would be.
Get job. 410 looked like it was there. Still, strong lifts.
Eric, I feel a little sore but nothing major. Iāll be back at it in a few days.
Crippler, I needed to be as strong as you are yesterday. Next meet I hope.
You make lifting really heavy weight look easy. Looked like you had that last bench nailed so I was surprised with result.
You remain one of my strength role models on here.
Biker, you always know just what to say to me. Thanks. Iāll try not to disappoint.
In whose vocabulary is a 550 deadlift disappointing?
