I'm quite sure I was here when he was born. How old is he and what does he weigh?
He's definitely got the legs for power lifting in squats and deadlifts.

50+ years ago I did some competing, but never did that well.

It's great to see a kid take an interest in a sport like that and do so well. It's a lot of hard work, you don't get that good overnight. Most kids now days don't have that kind of "stick to it" mentality.

If it was my kid, I'd sure be proud. WTG, both of you.


Must be nice to eat ice cream as fast as you want and not have to worry about brain freeze.

Thanks. His legs are behind his upper body some do to having 2 knee surgeries due to a football injury, but they are coming along. He's 17, 5'11" and 211 but hes on a bulk and will be 195ish this summer.

Way to go, Dad. He's impressive for sure. When he gets bored with powerlifting, tell him to check out strongman.

With his numbers, and his youth, he'd do really well.

If you can pull 100 pounds over your weight, that's a good deadlift and he's well beyond that. His squat is nothing short of amazing considering his knee problem. Quite a kid you got there.

Thanks. We really appreciate all the kind comments. A lot of hard work went into getting himself where he is today and it was all on his own, no coaches or anything. He just a month or so ago got the school to start a powerlifting club for him and a couple of his buddies who have been lifting too. He's hoping to set a new school bench press record before he Graduates in May. He's done 3 sets of 345 at the school and the record is 375. He's hoping to 400+ by May.
