After seeing Flex...

I'm almost embarrassed to put my videos from the Meet this past weekend.

Body weight was 232.8lbs

First up, 500lb Squat.


Next up, 580lb Deadlift.

Great job on those deads...was that your last lift? It looks like you had 600# in the tank..

You f'cking killed it, mad props! Who is the lady screaming her head off?

[DougHolland]

Loved those videos DerAlta. Competitions really raise the energy and you hit some great weights there!

Dang nice work, man!

You make our Alma Mater proud! I'll buy you a greasy, footlong sub from Rocket J's if I meet you in real life in a future alumni homecoming, which I myself have never attended since graduation.

The only other note, was I did hit 290lbs on the Bench. Totalled out at 1370lbs at @233lbs.

That was my last lift. I was really pumped up that day, and the original plan was to hit a 560lb pull. Opened with a 530, ripped it off the floor, and held it at the top for a moment for pics. Second lift was 560 and it came up tough. Went for the 580 and surprised myself at how it did come up.

You f'cking killed it, mad props! Who is the lady screaming her head off?

That's Liz, the lady I've trained with many times. She's no slouch on the stage either. BodyBuilder, Spartan racer, Powerlifter, and Model.

I've not been back either, but if we cross paths, I'll take you up on that offer.

Wow man....Really nice. Your progress has been steady and I see it continuing.

Really fires me up to hit some weights....

Nice to see others on here pushing themselves for some good numbers.

Awesome work Brother!!!

I wish STEVE was around to see this.....he was an ass to you when you first started posting.

You got me fired up for my Thursday Deadlift sesh!!!

I WILL hit 600# in May!!

[NorwichGrad]

I've not been back either, but if we cross paths, I'll take you up on that offer.

BTW, I have a minor special request.

On your next meet, after you complete the pull, may I suggest that you sound-off the top of your lungs:

"ESSAYONS, BEEEOTCHES!!!"

[ntrllftr]

Too many posts to quote. So..... I don't have one negative thing to point out!!! This thread is full of WIN!!!!
Keep posting up people!!!!

I remember that. "Diaper boy" or something he called him.

Very very strong lift Alta.

[DougHolland]

Just watched the Flex Press videos. Over a thousand pounds for reps? Dude, you got me so pumped! Over 35's are smoking the young dudes in the gym!

Thanks for the video's. Keep em coming.

[LisaSkinnoble]

Usually Tuesday is squat day, but I changed things up this week and did leg press and moved squats to Friday.

A couple vids from this morning...


1,020 lbs for 10 reps:



1,110 lbs for 6 reps:

Evidently, a change is as good as a rest for you! Outstanding!

[Getsum]

1,110 lbs for 6 reps:

You're getting close the OV35 working set record of 1700-1800 on leg press man, good job!!!

[fittofattofit]

Flex ---- looked too easy at 1120

Der Alta ---- beautiful lifts. That 580 dead looked easy!

[schubie18]

Some awsome pics everyone. I'm new to this site was looking for extra motivation. I've definitely found it here. Keep up the hard work!

[KenJenkinsII]

You guys would post this crap on the day I do legs. One thing I learned today is I have some weak legs, but seeing this pissed me off and made me have an awesome workout. Thanks fellas!

[bodyhard]

My ham day compilation 315lbs SLDL, 270lb Leg Curls & assisted GHR (yeah I am corny like that I love rocky music)

[-=FLEX=-]

FLEX you made that sh!t look easy man, f'cking awesome!

Thanks man.

Pffft; I don't think the young dudes even train legs!

Evidently, a change is as good as a rest for you! Outstanding!

Evidently; hopefully I see some improvement on the squats Friday.

You're getting close the OV35 working set record of 1700-1800 on leg press man, good job!!!

LMAO.

I think my right hammy would disagree with you.



I'll try to get a new squat vid in here on Friday, kids.

Holy cow, you're knocking out those SLDL's like it weighs nothing. It almost looks like speeded up video.

Speeded up? Sped up? Whatever. Nice job.
