Wow he almsot benches more than he can squat.

Went to the Raceland meet today and saw the Richardson kid from Highlands first hand. Kid is an absolute freak. Im 6'2" he was a little shorter than me, weighed in at 236. Bench was 465 (he got more than that up about 70%, not sure how much though), squat was 515, clean 315. All nearly perfect form reps.

 

Very respectful and nice kid. Very supportive of other lifters. A kid from Coal Grove OH squated 625 (he weighs 399), still impressive. But the Richardson kid was boown away by him getting that much. Fun weight meet, lot of strong kids. Thats my 2 cents worth.

Man he benched more than alot of kids squated all day!

Man he benched more than many squated all day!

Wow some strong kids out there, at FCHS we have not had many that are what I consider really strong. But have had a few over the year. Keep the updates coming.

Do they have weight classes at these meets. If so what are they?

There were 12 weight classes.

125 and lower, 125-135, 135-145, 145-155, 155-165,165-175, 175-185, 185-195,

195-205, 205-215,215-245, over 245. These may be off a little. But these are generally correct.

Are any of these kids on powerlifting clubs? or are they football teams that are competing in these events?

Is anyone going to North Bulliet on March 19th for the "State" powerlifting meet? If so, please post the overall weights for the major lifts. I cannot attend because of the Boyd County meet on the same day.
