Like the 600 deadlift?

You've already seen a 545 deadlift from me while doing conjugate last year. I'll post a 600 deadlift this year for you without even specifically training for it. ive done gym lifts in which strength athletes told me I need to be competing and I never did.

You’ve been saying you’ll pull 600 for so long that it’s become a running joke. I hope it finally come to fruition this year.

It either will or I will be dead this year. Ive got two tournaments and a regular season title I want to win more importantly. A sub goal of mine is doing 600 just for you and a bodyweight snatch while staying below 205 pounds. Death is the more likely possibility though.

That’s not a very optimistic outlook.
 
I'm going to start rounding up my lifts to the nearest hundred too. I retract my statement and can definitely total 1500 now.

So do the people you tell how to do it get paid to do powerlifting meets? Your opinion that playing sports other than powerlifting is a waste of time is ridiculous. What in the world does squatting 600 pounds have to do with health or your occupation? By that logic powerlifting is just a big a waste of time as doing any other sport. This has been going around in gigantic circle for years now and does nobody any good on either end. What do you possibly have to gain by coming on here and telling me that im not good at sports or lifting weights? Personally satisfaction from telling a complete stranger off?

No, they are in an age range and experience level where they have constant improvement, low skill low barrier of entry sport = instant gratification when young.

When someone instructs other people on how to do a thing, doesn't it make sense for the instructor to try to be, better than average/practiced, at the thing they are instructing? You get that, right?

I said playing those sports would be a waste of time for me right? I'm 42, if it's not something like golf or fighting I'll stick to fitness (just my opinion). I routinely tell HS and College age athletes NOT to prioritize powerlifting over team based sports. I'm not scrolling back but maybe I didn't clarify.

You've made bold claims here about baseball and your lifting, you said you wanted to kick my ass (fucking laughable), and said multiple negative things about my lifting and how it would impact my coaching. You will not get a pass from me, sorry. Hopefully you crush it in baseball and find enjoyment in the level that you're at. I would like to see you back up your many lifting statements and do a meet. Unfortunately everything I've seen in the past 5 or so years leads me to believe that I won't get my wish.

What bold claims have I made that has upset you? Do you honestly think I sit around all day thinking about beating up people I don’t even know? I have found enjoyment in the level I play at. There is no pass to given because there is nothing be given a pass for. I’m not selling you anything nor harming anybody that I know of. And I honestly don’t remember saying anything negative about you personally at all. I viewed your log a long time ago and that was it. Had absolutely nothing negative to say about it. ??????

You told us you were a pro baseball player, exaggerated on your virtual meet total, and said for years you were going to deadlift 600. Plus you said we would get ktfo if we ever said stuff to your face in real life.

To add to this, there are always consistent claims of proving himself in a meet or video, yet it doesn't happen.

I played soccer, baseball, basketball, football, cross country in high school. If you google my name I am sure you can find articles where I’m mentioned
I played indie ball after getting back into the sport several years ago but you are right it isn’t much to brag about. I had scholarship opportunities at several schools for two sports and elected not to go. I traveled all over the country doing karate until my late teens. I signed up for a usapl meet in Beaumont I had several family members that were planning on attending and then a hurricane literally destroyed my city at the time of the event. I did a virtual mock meet where my video camera went out the day before so I did token lifts the day after since I told the people I would participate. I have kept lifting logs in 3 places and an app over the last decade or so including here for a while. I’ve posted videos of my lifts because I like watching myself lift. I have several certifications from westside, Issa and nasm. That the extent of my sports history you can take it or leave it I really do not care anymore. You guys make me not even want to lift anymore. Are you happy now?

I think most would be happy if you did the things that you said you were going to do. If you say you are going to deadlift 600 lbs and post a video, do it. In this thread itself, you are making the claim that you can total 1500 lbs in a couple months. I don't give a shit if you do it in a meet or not, but I'd be very surprised if you can total 1500 lbs around the time of that meet without gaining quite a bit of weight. For someone throwing out their accolades, you should know that's a bold claim and a tough achievement from someone who hasn't totaled near that even with lifts done at different times.

I don't know why you act surprised when so many people call you out. You've been doing this for years. I'm going to do _______ and I'll prove it via video. I'll do _____________ at a meet. Literally none of it ever happens.

Absolutely never said I could total 1500 in two months.

Also I’m not throwing out accolades or bragging at all. I’m simply telling you that is my athletic history and that is it. I personally sometimes wish I never even bothered with sports now. I lift as a passtime now. If 1500 happens or not I’m fine with it either way. I’m not going to gain gobs of body weight or take steroids just so that I can come on an Internet forum and say that I totaled 1500. If I hit the 600 deadlift on video I’ll post it in my log here no big deal.

Well you said for someone to name a date and place and you'd do it. ASU threw out one in a couple months which you wouldn't do. Drew then threw out another one that you signed up for and backed out of. I guess that one was a "few" months, but I still don't think you could total 1500 by then unless you packed on some weight.
