New Deadlift PR

Hit a 561 pound deadlift PR on Saturday. Pretty cool.  This will likely be my last PR as a 46 year old, as my birthday is in late August. (though, ya never know)

Regardless, I have 3 years to hit what I will call my age 50 goals: 500 squat, 315 bench, 600 deadlift

Currently, my bests are 480-300-561.

That may not look like a long way to go on paper, but I progress extremely slowly. I will keep fighting, but I am also not the guy that's gonna hit a random 20 pound PR out of nowhere.

Belated Meet Recap

I neglected to post the results of my latest powerlifting meet, which occurred on April 21.

Better late than never:

Weight class: 110kg (242 lbs)
Weigh in: 107.6 kg (237 lbs)
Masters 45-49 years old

8/9; missed the first squat attempt for depth

Top lifts:
435 squat (5 pound meet PR)
287 bench (11 pound meet PR)
551 deadlift (FL state record for age/weight class) (5 pound meet PR)

1273 total

I had a lot of fun and am happy with the results. I wanted the 435 squat to be my second attempt, but since I got called for depth on my opener, I tried that same weight again as my second just to make sure I got it. 

I'd like to compete again in 2024.. possibly November.
