Still not my arm.

I have been competitively powerlifting for over 20 years. Within that time I have competed raw, single ply and multi ply. I hold the highest all time total of 1930 at 148, the third highest total of 2045 at 165 and have broken over 35 world records, over 25 of which I still hold. Through the years in this sport I have learned a great deal from various training methods, met and formed long lasting friends, as well as learned the importance of balancing life, work, and training.

Elitefts accepted me as a team member over ten years ago and I am currently the longest standing still competing powerlifter on the site. I appreciate Dave Tate and Elitefts for giving me the opportunity to learn from and teach others through the Q&A and my training log.

In 2005 I opened Orlando Barbell – a 24 hour powerlifting friendly gym. As well as running Orlando Barbell I designed and sell the Home GHR , the The OBB Power Handles and the Doorway Home Gym, wrote the 12 Weeks to a Bigger Bench EBook, and produced the 12Weeks to a Bigger Bench DVD.

My latest contribution was writing the M2 Method EBook, designed to be the quintessential Raw Powerlifting training manual for beginners to advanced lifters looking to get stronger and prevent injury while incorporating the powerlifts.

I went to my Oom Yung Doe training earlier in the day for my mobility and low impact cardio work. We’ve been working on a lot of kick variations which are working the crap out of my hips.

Shoulder dislocations w/broomstick x12x3

1 arm doorstretch x 30 secs x3

1 leg band hip stretch x30 secs x3/leg

Mid Grip Cable Rows-
150x10
165x10
180x10

Forearm roller work attached to the power rack w/25 lb plate x 3 in each direction.

EZ Bar Curls-
65x12
75x12
85x12

This was about all I had the time or energy for.  Even though the martial arts aren't overly strenuous, training twice a day is going to take some getting used to.
