BTW, if I succeed in pulling 400 before any of you monsters pulls 500 you will all be SHAMED![/quote]
Too late, Kent! I tried explaining it would take me years to get there and they grabbed and pulled me in anyway. There’s no escape! Once you post, you’re part of it.
And Strick, we’ll make this a fair fight. You overhead press 500 and we’ll lift 500.[/quote]
Does it have to be in 1 rep? How about a combined total over 2 reps??
Looking forward to seeing this play out. Friendly competition is good and fun.

Looking forward to seeing this comp, Pete if ya need help judging i’ll take a side chair, maybe we could get a third. Kmcnyc i think you would of gotten called on lockout
Good luck, this is going to be fun[/quote]
Please do take a side chair, I might be a corrupt, inconsistnant, and occasionally inebriated judge. I learn from where I compete:) need someone to balance out my calls.
(actually APF does have some mostly solid judging these days). [/quote]
Esteemed judges can I ask what angle we should shoot the vids from? because from the front you can count the plates easily but not see lockout well, whereas from the side you can judge lockout better but not see the plates? [/quote]
Ur welcome Kmcnyc, everything else was awesome!
Pete as long as we aren’t those things at the same time well be fine…lol
APF/USAPL balance each other out nicely…
I think a front 45’ angle on vid? But the head judge(pete) needs to make that call
Alright, took my first step. Deads today, and I was in the zone. Did 135 (easy), 185 (easy), 225(not bad), 255 (hmm, these are going up fine). So took a risk and tried 295, first time ever. Did it!!! PR!! No belt . . . no wraps . . . no chalk.
Now only 200 lbs to go. . . .
“So then the little sailor dude whips out a can of spinach, this crazy music starts playing, and - well, just look at this place!”
I’d like to play. However, 500 is not in the cards for me since that is more than four times my BW. I’m hoping for a double BW raw pull this Friday. I’ll post if I’m successful for judging by Pete. But don’t worry, it will be good.

I think we can make it a race to 500 or 2.5x bodyweight. For me 500 would be a little past 2.5x but not by much.
I see what you’re doing, Brett. You’re feeling threatened that I’ve joined the race and you’re looking for ways to exclude me. A shaved head and a beard?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^She might be Italian…LOL[/quote]
Great retort!
Kevin may have already won. He’s hitting a 2.5 x bw already. BTW, hair on the chin, annnd, the head, eliminates half the guys on here.
