That is a Master total and only about 100lbs from Elite status. Pretty impressive for a guy that has to get on here and ask how his strength is compared to others? Also your 3.125XBW dead seems a little unbelievable. One big goal of most PLer's is 3XBW for a dead. A lofty goal that few achieve, I haven't yet after 30 years of training. Again, I am not saying you are FOS but something just doesn't seem right. If your numbers are legit congrats you will win many, many raw meets.

his lifts are pretty believable since hes been liftin since 9th grade...but how have you not achieved a 3xbw deadlift in 30 years of training...? wtf r u doin it took me 1.5yrs of training to achieve that, im shooting for a 4xbw dead

Maybe I am wrong but in your avatar it says you are 189 and you DL 530. It is pretty easy that I haven't achieved that goal, it is a good goal. The difference b/w me and you is that I have put up numbers on the platform not the internet. I know what good numbers are. Which meet did you DL 3X BW? My numbers are posted on PL.com in a very recent National meet. I DL'd 628 @220 which was the 3rd best DL in ALL weight classes. I happened to win the best overall lifter in that PL meet. See you show your complete ignorance when you say things like, "im shooting for 4xbw dead." Really, 756 @ 189?

Actually I remember you. I go to a lot of meets. You have a hell of a DL. You competed in the ADAU Nationals in Hagerstown a year or two ago. I will give you props, you pulled 510, I think, @165. You went a little above 3X but and that was a National record. Nice pull.

im not 15% bf...??? and i jus changed it because you pointed it out and it is out dated. I actually just weighed myself at 175.4lbs and im bout to go to bed so im waking up around 173-174 right now. And sorry for flipping out i thought it was someone else who posted below you and defended me didnt realise it was you hah my mistake. Will you be at the Nationals in 2 weeks?

No, doing USPF Nationals in 3 weeks. Do not do many raw meets b/c I am on the west coast now. Probably do IPA Nationals in November in York raw and the Raw Unity meet in FL January if I do not qualify for the Americus Cup in LA. So many people on this site post internet stats and that is why I suggested to the OP to post a vid. A 3XBW is very good, hell Bolton's isn't much more then that. I have a pretty good memory. I remember you and remember being impressed in Htown with your numbers. Good luck put I big number, Respect G

Best of luck to both

Gettnthere those are some real impressive weights for anyone especially a 16 year old. When I was 16 I was wrestling 112 and had nowhere to the strength I have now. Good luck in you and everyone else's PL meets. I am going to look for one near Lancaster because I go to school in Millersville Pa.

Considering he is in the PA area, I agree lifting in the ADAU is a decent choice. Squat depth is more in line with classical calls of the pre gear-roid era and benches are locked out. Go for it JayKL149.

JayKL149 · 06-16-2008, 11:27 AM

I was checking out the website for PL if I can find the time around my summer class and wrestling im going to try to head to one. Thanks for the advice on how to find these meets.
