WNPF World Championships

On November 13, 2005 I competed in the WNPF World Bench Press and Deadlift Championships in Atlantic City, NJ. I competed in the bench press only, Masters Division (55-59), 242 weight class. Weighed in @ 231 lbs.

My first attempt (opener) was 418 lbs. and I got it easily. This was a new World & NJ State record. On my second attempt I moved up to 430 lbs. (195 kilos) and killed it. This was another new World, National and NJ State record in my division. The previous world record was 345 lbs., I crushed that record by 85 lbs. On my third attempt I got a little conserative cause I wanted to break the American recors and own all 3 records, I know I had 450 in me but went for 435 lbs. I got called for uneven lockout and was not credited with the lift. I thought I got it clean but the judges didn't.

This was my best meet to date, it was a dream come true, breaking the world record. This made me a 2 time world champion with a world and national record and 3 NJ state records.
