Hey Jesse. Perhaps, for real excitement and serious lifting, folks ought to consider attending a USAPL Masters Nationals meet where the athletes wear single-ply poly, are all over 40 years of age, walk out all squat attempts, go below parallel with squats and have real bench press pauses. Sorry, but we don't have smoke machines and strobe lights or lifters head-butting the bar.

A little over a week ago in Miami, among us 'seasoned lifters' we saw 11 squat over 700 lbs, 8 lifters benched more than 500 lbs, 3 lifters deadlifted more than 700 lbs and 3 totalled more than 1900 lbs, with big Brad hitting a 2238 lbs total.

Heck, I'll be 53 next week and I hit lifts of 766/473/694/1933 ttl. That's a meet entry fee well-spent. When my wheels fall off and the numbers slip significantly, it's off to the golf course for me, rather than entering a meet comprised of strength-challenged lifters.
