new to power lifting

You're not the first person to have thought that...

He's also not the first Mike from Brisbane to think it.

 

[strong enough?]

Have you Brisbane guys checked out University of Queensland Powerlifting and Weightlifting Club?

The head coach is Andrew Logan, who was (and still is) one of the best ever squatters in Australia. Lots of good lifters there and reportedly a very good club to train at, good environment, good people, very good equipment.

The University of Qld Powerlifting&Weightlifting Club Inc (UQPWC)

Including club comps, there are about 6 comps a year usually as well.

Jeff Lam is opening a gym in Brisbane, he's a pretty good lifter as well I hear.

I reckon you might be right...

Powerlifting

bodyweight 88.4kg
Squat 280kg
Bench 215kg
Deadlift 255kg (F 270kg)
Total 750kg

That's some good lifts. Would love to have him show me the ropes...

Cheers,
Mike

That's some good lifts.

Understatement much?

Lol, I don't know about his squat or dead, but I know his bench is much higher now. I've seen 235kg in training. Would have passed in comp for sure too.
Mike, I'm heading down at about 4pm on Sunday (open day) if you wanted to catch up.
