Mike Rinderle Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I was going to wait until Sunday to pull again, but I was so mad about missing this lift Wednesday that I just Monstered up and went for it. Warmups all felt great (as opposed to Wednesday), so I went at this with a ton more confidence. It actually didn't feel any worse than 490 did a couple weeks ago. 550, here I come! Here's the vid. I was so excited, I forgot to show the plates, but I promise you it was 500 lbs on the nose. All plates weighed on a postal scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Rinderle Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 (edited) Thanks guys! If you had told me a few years ago when I was laying in the hospital after my second back surgery that I would ever pull 300 I would have told you that you were nuts (much less 500). I think I'm happier for this lift than any other thing I've done in strength sports up to now. Long time coming!
