Welcome Tyler Butcher to the 300th episode of Dave Tate's Table Talk podcast!
Tyler Butcher is an engineering manager in the automotive industry. He lives near Toledo, Ohio, with his wife Beverly. He graduated from the University of Toledo with a degree in mechanical engineering in 2011 and started competing in powerlifting during college. Tyler began lifting at 14 but entered his first meet at 20. A local powerlifter, Marty Ross, mentored him early on, providing valuable guidance and support, especially after the passing of Tyler's father.
Tyler primarily competes in single-ply equipment but has recently experimented with unlimited bench shirts. He admires veteran lifters like Ed Coan, Kirk Karwoski, Scott Cartwright, and Brian Siders, whose style influenced his love for the sport. Recently, Tyler set the all-time single-ply squat record with an 1153 lb. squat. At 35, he continues to train and aims to further improve his record, with plans to compete again in February.
