507lb squat and 314lb bench videos

**OnTheSauce** · 06-23-2013, 04:26 PM

As everyone knows, deadlifts are my forte. Unfortunately injured myself warming up. Here are my successful attempts at squat and bench. Sorry for poor bench video, guy stood right in the way and I missed 335 on third lift.

If someone knows how to embed it would be great.

Nice work Patrick. Fun to see!

**OnTheSauce** · 06-23-2013, 05:21 PM

Had a 550 squat for sure. Judge was making us pause too long on bench. It made it a lot harder. But he was also very inconsistent. Some guys got fast touch and go lifts... at least 20 lifters were bitching about it.

**The Deadlifting Dog** · 06-23-2013, 06:11 PM

How much were your planned pulls?

**OnTheSauce** · 06-23-2013, 06:20 PM

640-675-700

**The Deadlifting Dog** · 06-23-2013, 07:20 PM

700 in a meet would be pretty damn impressive.

Sucks you got injured. You'll get it next time.

**OnTheSauce** · 06-23-2013, 07:33 PM

Did 700 in gym few weeks ago. And I was feeling STRONG today. definitely had it

**ppwc1985** · 06-23-2013, 07:36 PM

Nice pat, ? We're you on gear at the meet? And about your bench, is this your usual weight?

**OnTheSauce** · 06-23-2013, 07:44 PM

I was just on 700 Tren . Nothing crazy. Lifts are raw. In gym I can touch and go 340. But with that damn 2 second pause he had me do on my 335 attempt I lost tightness and couldn't get it past halfway. My squat was up to 585 last year before a knee injury forced me to be unable to squat for months. Accompanied with arthritis and degrading cartilage on the back of my knee cap, it's been a battle getting back to where im at now. But I should have a 600 squat by end of the year granted my back/hip isn't anything major.

**ppwc1985** · 06-23-2013, 07:52 PM

Dam that's to long a pause lol, some judges should not be judging. Do you do explosive out of the hole sets. Where you start the rep out of the bottom and let spotters do the neg for you, try this it could help in that situation. I used to throw them into my routine when I was younger.

Unfortunately I lift alone 90% of the time so some things aren't possible. Id like to try those out. Bench has always been a weakness. I have been squatting since day 1 and it used to be my favorite. Didn't deadlift for the first 6 months I lifted.

**ppwc1985** · 06-23-2013, 08:20 PM

Well those lifts are great, keep lifting and you will get to where you wanna be. Powerlifting can be really satisfying, more so than bb. Good luck

**OnTheSauce** · 06-23-2013, 08:30 PM

They are mediocre. My deadlift saves me. This was in 90kg (198lb) class

I was trying to be supportive, lol but yea your squats not bad. Dead is very good. Bench needs a little work, just cause it seems to be lacking compared to your other two lifts. But my chest is the same, good deads, good squats, but my chest always lacks behind them. You defiantly need a training partner, or pay someone to come to gym and spot you, I think that will be the best thing you can do cause you not doing bad at all for your weightclass.

**OnTheSauce** · 06-24-2013, 12:52 PM

Well with my current injury ill be focusing on upper body for a while! Maybe it will catch up

**gearbox** · 06-24-2013, 02:29 PM

Great job bro.

Does this injury change things regarding olympia?

**OnTheSauce** · 06-24-2013, 03:33 PM

Yeah I had to pull 700. Maybe next year

**Little76** · 06-24-2013, 08:26 PM

Yes sir

**Java Man** · 06-24-2013, 10:21 PM

I read your log running up to this. It takes a lot of discipline and guts just getting to the bar in the first place. My hat would be off to you, if I wore one

**gearbox** · 06-25-2013, 10:21 PM

**OnTheSauce** · 06-27-2013, 06:51 PM

**tigerspawn** · 06-27-2013, 10:33 PM

Nice lifts Patrick.

**OnTheSauce** · 06-28-2013, 05:01 AM

Hopeful for 600/400/750 by end of the year.

**Little76** · 06-28-2013, 08:22 PM

**Ignorant** · 06-30-2013, 04:04 PM

**OnTheSauce** · 07-01-2013, 09:30 PM

I want 1000lb deadlift.

**Far from massive** · 07-02-2013, 03:10 PM

Hey Patrick,

Just curious how old are you? I know little about power lifting and am curious what age pwr lifters usually peak at? I would imagine that unless you start very early and have access to great coaching etc that for most, the body continues to adapt and technique improves for so long that most probably get their personal bests at a point where they are no longer at there peak strength agewise?

And yeah hats off to you on the lifts, I am obviously not the correct body type for pwr lifting but even if I was I can't imagine pulling the kind of weights you people do!!!!

Much Respect!

FFM

**OnTheSauce** · 07-02-2013, 03:22 PM

Im 25. But some of the most dominant guys are young now. Starting at 13-14 and breaking records at 19-20. I wish I would've started younger. I honestly don't know what age u peak at

A guy from my town is only 22 and he has/had several records including a world record I believe for the under-100 category. Think it was around the ballpark of 150kg bench/260kg squat and 280kg deadlift. (690kg // 1500lb) total lift. Sam Goodall, he's a relatively small looking guy too. His brother is also a damn sporting freak, going to the world championships for taekwondo and then deciding to play rugby and being offered a premiership team abroad.

Some people are just pre destined athletes I guess!

**OnTheSauce** · 07-02-2013, 04:07 PM

I've got 3 american in different feds.

I think it is more about staying healthy and running gh 30 is like the new 20 but wouldn't know

Dont mean to be a "hater" but that probably isnt going to happen lol. 700 is sick though! esp for 198s. Whats the Georgia (is that where you are from?) state record for your division (open?) ?

Hey man always gotta have big goals! 800 should be within reach in a year or so. ive only been lifting 3 years and started at 150lbs. Idk the state record.

**powerliftmike** · 08-01-2013, 09:49 AM

Here are the GA state records for DL in WABDL. These should be equipped records, although it doesnt specify on many sites leading to confusion. If youre at 700 raw now getting a state record should be a walk in the park.

198 CLASS 1 MEN MATTHEW CHRISTIE 606.2 12/11/04
198 JUNIOR MEN 20-25 MATTHEW CHRISTIE 584.0 04/24/04
198 LAW-FIRE OPEN MEN MATT CHRISTIE 608.4 12/10/05
198 MASTER MEN 40-46 GEORGE HERRING 738.5 07/27/02

**OnTheSauce** · 08-01-2013, 10:07 AM

I already have national in APC. And SPF junior. Ill be in 220 now though so I need to creep up around 800. Omenchnko is ridiculous and he will stay #1 for a long time I'd imagine
