Four amazing lifters took the platform to remember lifters of USAWA’s past and set or break (19) new records along the way. Denny and Barry have been competing since the early days of USAWA. Mike competed in the mid 1990’s, took a break and has been a frequent competitor in 2024 and 2025. Miles is a relative newcomer, but put up some of the most impressive lifts.

Mile is only the 9th USAWA athlete to set a record in the Pullover & Press with a Wrestler’s Bridge. His 155 pound effort is the 3rd highest all time behind Steve Schmidt (270 pounds) and Michael Rabich (177 pounds).
