1628mna - this was 15 years ago or so at 148, but my dead was around 450#, and the squat was 375# or so. Squatting's never been a strong point for me, and again, this was natural. I've always wanted to do a meet and even trained for one, but the guys I was working out with dropped off one at a time until I was the only one left. You can't train for a power meet by yourself.
I've worked out at every gym around here, but am currently at World's in Sheffield Lake right now. I miss some of the old gyms. Miller's Gym (downtown Lorain), Club Olympia (Westlake), Pumping Iron, the Elyria Scandanavian, Elyria Barbell Club, Riveredge, American Fitness...... I think my all time favorite gym was Pumping Iron in South Lorain back in the late 80's.
Do you know Tim Judge?
