2/18- Accessory Work

I have been competitively powerlifting for over 20 years. Within that time I have competed raw, single ply and multi ply. I hold the highest all time total of 1930 at 148, the third highest total of 2045 at 165 and have broken over 35 world records, over 25 of which I still hold. Through the years in this sport I have learned a great deal from various training methods, met and formed long lasting friends, as well as learned the importance of balancing life, work, and training. Elitefts accepted me as a team member over ten years ago and I am currently the longest standing still competing powerlifter on the site. I appreciate Dave Tate and Elitefts for giving me the opportunity to learn from and teach others through the Q&A and my training log. In 2005 I opened Orlando Barbell – a 24 hour powerlifting friendly gym. As well as running Orlando Barbell I designed and sell the

Home GHR and

Doorway Home Gym, wrote the

12 Weeks to a Bigger Bench EBook, and produced the

12Weeks to a Bigger Bench DVD. My latest contribution was writing the

Minimalist Method EBook, designed to be the quintessential Raw Powerlifting training manual for beginners to advanced lifters looking to get stronger and prevent injury while incorporating the powerlifts. I'm currently in off season training and plan to compete in the Olympia single ply meet next. Sprints- 50 yds x 5 I’ve been getting tired of the treadmill for my warm ups, so I decided to hit the streets. The short bursts of speed from sprinting will create better carryover to powerlifting anyway. KB Swings- 35x10/arm x3 The swings help to stretch my shoulder joint so I decided to throw them in. Flex/Ext w/Fat Grip Cable Pulldown Handle x10x2 Isaw one of the competitive arm wrestlers doing these at OBB. You just hold the pulldown bar with your arm at your side to perform flextion and extension. It’s heavy enough that no other resistance is needed. Cable Rows w/Spud Handles- 135x10 150x10 165x10 DB Hammer Curls- 35x10 40x10
