Haven’t posted the workout stuff in a while. I’m still putting in some work, although I have spread out the lifting days a little more, decreasing frequency of the heavy work and introducing an extra day of conditioning. Which means … Continue reading Kaizen; Training Log: May 3-10, 2021

I have not done a competitive powerlift competition since the summer of 2016. In between then and now, I got in the worst shape of my life. So, I went into 2020 with the intention of getting back into lifting heavy, while also taking some weight off. It is hard to serve those two masters at the same time, unless you were as detrained as I was. 13 months ago, I tested my maxes. While weighing 267 pounds, I squatted 320, benched 215 and deadlifted 320 pounds. So, a total of 855.
