Hey, Mike
I just stopped by your blog. First of all, congratulations on your big time weight loss! That must have took some discipline. Secondly, those are some great numbers for a 242... especially your power cleans... did you ever train as an Oly lifter?
Also, great benching... you haven't lost as much strength as you think. On a side note, I don't notice any squats in your routine. Do you just compete in push/pull meets or have you done full meets before?
Anyways, good luck with your goals. I think they are attainable given your previous levels. Stop by my blog sometime and check it out. I'm not as strong a lifter as you but not doing too badly either. Thanks.

JOHN

Thanks for the kind words. It was actually easy after the first 2 weeks. No, I've never been an olympic lifter but I've always done power cleans b/c I love them. I'm not doing squats now b/c I don't want to gain too much weight and I'm training for a bench only meet in December. I feel when trying to improve your bench squats hamper this somewhat b/c of the strain they put on the shoulder joint.
I do 3 lift meets mostly. But have done a few bench only and 1 bp/dl meet.

An unload Press is just the name I use for reverse band press.
