101/121 @ Really fun day, CCB meets have always been my favorite – possibly because that’s where I had my first comeback meet back in 2017. The goal on the day was to work a comfortable 6/6 performance, and I ended up doing that with a 101kg snatch and a 121kg clean & jerk. Great […]

Meet #20 May 2021; Florida State Championship
100/120 @ 80.1 Really fun meet and a decent performance. This was a bit of a redemption for me, as I had done fairly poorly here a few months prior at the National Championship meet. I went 100kg on snatch and 120kg on clean & jerk for a 220kg total on the day, I’m alright […]
Meet #19 March 2021; Masters Weightlifting National Championship
95/120 @ 78.4 Not the best of days, in terms of results, but I had a really awesome time. This was my first in-person National Championship meet, last year was online format due to COVID. There were so many participants in our age group and weight class (M35-39, 81kg) that we were split into A […]
Meet #18 February 2021; Big Bend Spring Classic
Solid meet! This was a train-through meet, was pleased to end up with a 100kg/125kg day.
Meet #17 December 2020; USAW Online Qualifier
102/126 @ 80.3 A solid day at Capital City Barbell, here in Tallahassee, participating in the December online qualifier meet for USAW. I worked up to a 102kg snatch and 126kg clean&jerk at 80.3kg bodyweight.
Meet #16 October 2020; Florida State Championship
Finally – back to an IN-PERSON MEET! This was down in Orlando, Florida, at the same venue that the Master’s National Championship meet was supposed to be in. I had really been looking forward to this meet. About 4 weeks prior to this, I switched out of Pendlay WOD, the programming/coaching group I had been […]
Meet #15 October 2020; Master’s Panamerican Championship
Well, this one is a bit of similar story to the Master’s National Championship meet. This was originally slated to go down in San Juan, Puerto Rico – a vacation meet! It too, was dealt the same fate, going to an online format due to travel and health restrictions. I filmed my attempts at Capital […]
Meet #14 September 2020; Master’s National Championship
This was originally slated to happen in April, in Orlando, Florida, but the COVID shutdown in Florida caused it to be pushed back multiple times, eventually ending up in an online format. I was still recovering from my torn knee, but I weighed in a 80kg and managed a decent (for me) 100kg snatch and […]
Meets # 10-13; USAW online meets due to COVID
Not going to bother putting these videos up at the moment, USAW’s meets went online, montly, starting in May, 2020, and continuing up through the present time of January, 2021. I tore my right knee (meniscus) in April of 2020, and took about 2 months to let it heal up. I participated in June, July, […]
Meet #9 March 2020; Big Bend Spring Meet
I weighed in 80.5kg and then reffed for the ladies session. When that was over, I suited up to lift with the Men’s session. Snatches felt great and I managed a 1kg competition PR at 101kg/222lbs. I cramped up (calves and outer quad) on my 90kg warmup for clean & jerk and knew I needed […]
