I've been competing in football, track & field and weight lifting competitions since age 14. I've got more broken bones & weight lifting injuries than I care to relive, but looking back I have no regrets other than not persuing a baseball career. But Football, Shot put throwing & Weight lifting put the kabosh on my fastball, oh well kay cera cera.

I am an instructor at for our local high school power-lifting team. [Yes, powerlifiting is now a competitive sport in high school.]

The team won the state championships this year. There are some REALLY strong kids. One is a sophomore, who at 190 pounds squatted 570 pounds! A sophomore! His 600 pound squat was considered a no lift because he was a couple of inches short of paralell. Wow!
