Hell, my wife is nearly in the 1000 pound club. (Yes in competition). When she lifts, it’s funny to watch all those guys jaw drop. (She mostly goes to a powerlifting gym, but sometimes comes to my gym, which is of the “high end athletic club” style)
Yes, I am in the 1000 pound club. My best guess is probably around 1025 right now. Because I have changed the way I lift as I age, I will probably fall below 1000 soon. I feel as though I can maintain 975 for years to come. I have been to 1150. |

You mean like all at once? Or over the course of 10 lifts?

Yeah. I haven't maxed out my bench or deadlift in a while, but I squatted 475 a few weeks ago. Here's 445 for two the week before I hit 475 for proof I'm not talking about my numbers from Polk High. I can't get my arms behind a straight bar right now though.

Farm strong,
I moved 95 some sheets of ag panels this afternoon for the shop I'm building. 90 ish steps round trip, two stacks because different colors. The delivery driver said it weighed 8-9k. It took about 2 1/2 hours. I rode the exiercise bike this am and walked about 3/4 mile after lunch. I'm pooped. 51 years getting soft. |

I was last year by a good bit (1245). A couple surgeries unrelated to lifting have made my gym time this year inconsistent and I haven't tested anything, so I can't say definitively whether I can top 1000 total, but I feel like I can. I'm 55 fwiw.
