​Life is about family, friends and the impact you make on peoples lives. I’ve competed for 33 years in this incredible sport/brotherhood. I’ve been inspired by many great champions like the Warriors in this Battle Ready family. I’ve learned that greatness comes through discipline, commitment, hard work, courage, respect, and mental toughness. The ultimate test is competing. I’m a benchpress specialist. I’ve held 5 World Records in multiple federations. I’m new to unlimited bench gear and the first time I used my Battle Ready XL Hybrid with a soft insert, I benched an all-time high 755 lbs weighing 210.8. I’m getting used to this amazing equipment and have recently worked up to 855 lbs. Looking forward to excellent numbers in my next meet. I’m dedicated to this sport and will always support the team.
