Your hard work paid off big time. Awesome performance! Congratulations on the PRs and hanging in there with the big boys at the super bowl of raw powerlifting.

I really enjoyed the meet, by the way. I have been cheering on the Benedix brothers, who were also impressive, since their dad introduced them to the sport as preteens, and I was beyond thrilled to watch my pal, Paul, break the all-time 165 total record. Of course, you were the one who had me out of my seat, screaming my lungs out. So close on that final pull! It is DEFINITELY a done deal after your next peaking cycle.

Thank you everyone for the kind words and encouragement.

I had a blast competing and once it all sunk in I'm extremely happy with my performance. I've been chasing a 1400 total for the last year and I finally got it. Like POB said now it's time to enjoy a few days off before getting back to work.


The chick throwing up was probably the highlight of the meet! She took the spot light from Paul Nguyen's world record total lol. But I have to say she finished that lift like a boss!

Great work man. The 165's were stacked this year.

I heard that record won't count due to RUM not using calibrated plates. Pretty disappointing as that was an epic performance.

Congrats and like everyone said, the PRs were big. I loved watching that 500 squat. That fired me up.

Two flight meets are a challenge, and you had some tough competition, but you lifted with a purpose and shut out all that stuff.
