From Greg- A week ago, I had not planned to send a video.
After a heart-to-heart conversation with a good friend and long-time powerlifting competitor, himself, he encouraged me to keep going, and keep adding weight.
Following his suggestion, I did just that. It’s my sincere hope that fellow lifters and people standing on the sidelines will either be motivated to keep striving for their lifting goals or get into a good gym, and start working hard. If a 63-year-old guy, like I am, can keep making progress, then so can a whole lot of folks. Video #1 May 16, 2018 Deadlift training The bar weight is 260 kg (573 lbs.) The goal: 3 repetitions Actual: 4 repetitions. Video #2- Squat training day The bar weight is 200kg (440 lbs.) The goal: 3 reps Actual: 4 reps This was a standard-setting day.
I’ve never had 200kg on my back, wearing knee sleeves only. I was hesitant to even try it, but the prior sets, with 180kg, felt good. Here is how the session progressed: Bar X 20, Bar X 15, 65kg X 10, 95kg X 6, 125kg X 3, 155kg X 3, 180kg X 3, 180kg X 3, 200kg X 4
