We got back late Monday night from doing a barbell seminar in Huntington Beach, CA. I would not advise anyone visiting or continuing to live in that state. To California residents: I’m sorry I’m not sorry. More on the trip tomorrow…
You may remember that on Friday, I mentioned that AC was going to compete in a USAPL meet. He did 70’s Big justice going 7 for 9, and I’m proud of him.
Competing in the 220 lb class…
Body weight: 204 (on their scale, he was around 208-209 on his scale)
Squat: 529 (raw state record)
Bench: 368 (raw state record
Deadlift: 568

Edit: AC went 7 of 9. I typed it wrong last night for some reason. I was in a hurry.

MassBuilder – I”m in Weymouth. Tought to find a gym focused on strength around here. I have a friend in Wakefield who I am trying to have check out Olympia Barbell. Can”t find any place any closer to me.
I”ve got nothing on AC but I also had my first Powerlifting comp on Sunday. It was a PA(Powerlifting Australia) comp, they”re IPF affiliated.

Love the karate kid theme…makes me want to eat big and lift big. This site is a blessing, even to us little aspiring to be 70s big. Gitsum.
To use the Karate Kid theme song with such panache…Bravo my friend. Bravo. Inspirational
