In Response To: SO HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN LIFTING ? (Tim"THEPEOPLESCHAMP"Bruner)

USPF meet in Des Moines, Iowa at the YMCA. If I remember right I hit a 600 squat, 365 bench and a 610 pull in the 220's. I saw my first ever 500+ bench that day and thought the dude was a god!! LOL!! I hit some more USPF meets then ADPFA, AAU and USAPL for a good amount of time.

In 2002 I switched to the APF and hit 771/512/620 or something along those lines in the 308. I hit my best ever total of 2,188 at the 2006 APF Texas Cup with 942/573/673.

I'm on the comeback road after getting my foot crushed and nearly losing it from a bike accident in May 2007. I hope to hit Master Nationals in 2009 as my comeback meet and will be 42 years old then.

So it's been 21 years for me and I'm now the Arizona APF State Chairman, an APF Executive Committee member and an Elite lifter. Stay Strong, J.R.
