Nice!

From Power Watch "Here's video of Chris Taylor, 242, from the SSA CandyAzz Classic held Saturday in Tribes Hill, New York. Taylor totalled 2,250 pounds, with an 875 pound squat, 725 bench press, and 650 pound deadlift. Included are his 875 pound squat and 725 pound bench press. Taylor returned to powerlifting after suffering a heart attack in the summer of 2006. "

Powerlifters are sick. Coming back from a heart attack to squat 875!But I love the look in his eye as he approaches the bar. I remember it well and still miss it.A great example of a perfect power squat.Not bad depth, either,especially for a canvas suit.Chris is a great guy and I'm glad he got his comeback.

Thursday ruck

 Another decently strong one. Cool weather again and that helps.. Calves were tight, the only thing slowing me down 45 lb ruck 6 laps 3 mile...
