To my taste, could have been deeper, but still, fantastic lifting. Good for him.

Huge strength.

Thank you sir. Appreciated.  Agreed on the depth. I do not give the judges anything extra.  It's just right there- no more.

From gramps to geezer,

 Great job made it look easy!  Are those sleeves or wraps?

God damn!  I was expecting a gym fail of some sort, so to see this old fucker destroy 500 like that was surprising lol!

Who is he?  Dude must have been a competitive lifter in his youth?

Impressive strength.  You have to be in the top 1% of your age group. 

However, no need for your buddy to clap before the lift, foot stomp, etc.  It reminds me of Lame Norton.  "Hey everybody, look over here.  Look at me, look, look."   :-\

Crazy strength. How many reps do you reckon you could have gotten with 500 during your prime Tommy?

Not impressed!  No ace-bandage reps, and still another 40 reps to go.  Also, he appears to have a water bottle instead of a gallon of milk with him at the gym.

To top it off, he’s a year older than me at 57.

Aww, it wasn't that bad :)  Norton would stomp and scream across half his gym for minutes before a set like that.  I wish I could find the video of someone mocking his "psyching up"...that shit was a scream! ;)

Gentlemen, thank you.  I appreciate the positive waves, I surely do.


A few cats asked questions:

In my absolute prime, 1992-1995 while weighing 260-ish I've done 500 for 20 reps. I've done it more than once at Golds Venice and a few other gyms. That was a long long time ago. Sadly that anaerobic power is long gone.

Brother I swear, that foot stomp is almost subconscious. I don't know why or when I started doing it. It's a bit odd, I agree.

When I was much younger I was a successful competitive Powerlifter. Always had the very best coaching, gyms, drugs, everything. Anyone in my position would have had success.
