elitefts advisor Thomas Deebel competed at the RPS Autumn Apocalypse in Newark, NJ this past weekend in the master's deadlift-only division. Wearing a single ply Metal King deadlift suit, Tom opened with 575 pounds, lifted 640 pounds for his second, and missed 650 for his third.
640 being both a pre-knee injury and post injury PR, I couldn't budge 650 on my third. At least I have something to show for it!
Take a look...
Tom's coach Josh Bryant couldn't be happier with the results of this meet. At a bodyweight of 196 pounds and at 52 years old, Josh describes Tom's performance elegantly:
"Since 2010 Sheena, like whiskey, he keeps getting better with age. These are all-life time PRs!!!"
