@@Bret_Frost he is my best friend from high school, we both have home gyms, but we text multiple times a day from lifting to life and career. I get to go up there ~4x a year and we always have great training sessions and try and peak to PR then too. He got me into lifting 5 years ago when we were 37 and the bug bit me from day one. Great guy, raising great kids, and we both have the most supportive wives! Loved the listen up and back, especially about having someone who is like a brother and as passionate about pushing each other and the other person's success!

In multiply terms 881 at the level of these guys is low I mean most guys at that level are squatting well over a thousand regularly. Every time I've squatted with one of my training partners when he is in process of circumax is well over a thousand pounds sometimes 1100. But what Kenny lacked in squat he obviously made up for in bench!!

This podcast is awesome Dave. Thank you for doing this. I was all about Elite FTS in 07-2012. I was in the Navy and had a monster friend that got me into powerlifting. I had no idea what I was doing, and only later realized I was training like a geared lifter, but whatever, I got stronger. I always dreamed of an elite total, but that wasn't in the cards. I still love powerlifting though. It's so cool to hear these old stories from the best ever.

That comment on loving to strain. I've tried to explain this to people that there is something neurological that happens, and some people truly get something very positive from it. I don't know if it's an endorphin thing or what it is, but I tried to walk away after very bad spine deterioration only to come back about two years later and start up again (far more technical and healthy approach) primarily due to that feeling of being under heavy weight.
