      I was at the meet in York when Wilbur deadlifted 725. I used to go to all the big meets in York in the early 60’s when I was just starting to compete. I also saw him lift in the National Weightlifting Championships in York. He was one of my favorite lifters from that era. One of the big thrills of my life was getting to meet him and talk to him at the Dino Gym a few years ago. Another great one is gone!

        I had given up on bodybuiling by then.

          I am pretty sure that is the most women we have had in one of our postals. It definitely is since I have been running them.

            Yes, I believe they could have been, John and Dick competed in Olympic and Powerlifting. My first meet at the Holy Savior Club had over 100 lifters. We didn’t finish lifting until about 1 AM. Then they had the bodybuilding contest after that.

                  Thanks guys! The pain is pretty much gone, but the bicep reminds me every now and then that it’s still not right.
                  Dan, the pain is in the belly of the muscle, so your comment makes me feel better about it.

                    I’ve been training at a gym and at home for years now. Now I just do all of it at home. No training partner to talk to between sets, but I actually am having better workouts here than I did at the gym.

                      I don’t think this is a good idea. However,at this time of social distancing, maybe it would be an option to get more participation. This would have to go to the executive board for approval though.

                        I can’t get my feet on the floor any more when I am laying on a bench, so all my benches are done FIA. But ever since I have lifted in the USAWA, I have been able to bench the same with FIA as on the floor.

                          I’m planning to be there, depending on the weather. So far the forecasts look good.

                              How are all you guys out there in the heartland getting along with the terrible weather. Has anyone heard from Dean?

                                  Well, we’ll see, now you ruffled my feathers. Next year we will beat you by 2 points!
