5' 10.5", 280-ish

I can still squat and deadlift around 600 on a good day; bench is shit 325 on a good day.

Last comp was April 2018 and I weighed 283 and went 620/345/615 (best comp results ever).

so many PL federations with so many similar initials. It's hard to keep straight.

Yes, imho that is what's wrong with the US and powerlifting. We should 2 Fed's, 1 tested and 1 untested. That's how it's done outside the US and that's what we should do. The problem is to many ego's so they make fed's up so they can have "WR" when in fact it's watering down the sport and making it a bit of a mockery.

Powerlifting has some great comradery but the feds ruin it for the athletes. Also, too many fragile egos. I have a few friends who compete in SM, nat level and WSM level too. They're a GREAT group of crazy motherfuckers. I just can't hang with them.

not gunna lie,
strongman has IMO the best community among the competitors. When I stuck my toe in a year plus ago I was leary as the body building world is like a teenage girl sowing circle. Totally different tho. People are friendly, helpful, nice. You see people fighting for the same placement giving each other belts, chalk, ammonia whatever on comp day with a smile. Also the gym is way more friendly allot more ball busting and joking around and allot more pushing each other to do better.
