The first time

First times are toug, aren't they?

So, I have been chased here by a pal to start blogging about myself and the things I do. This is somewhat difficult for me as Iam not a look at me type of person but, I do like to be recognized for my work. So, what to do?

I supose it's best to introduce myself. I'm Wade Johnson. I am a competitive powerlifter. That's where this journey begins so to speak. My best competitive lifts are 960 squat, 660 bench press and a 672 deadlift. Now these lifts aren't the biggest in the world but, my thinking is that what may make this a little unusual is that I'm life time drug free and over 40, well 43 to be exact.

My ambition in doing this is not only to tell you about me but, to encourage you folks out there that are like me, over 40 and still pushing yourselves as you did when you were 20. It is my belief that you can turn 40 and not go down hill the rest of your life. I am, right now, the strongest I have ever been in my life.

So, in an effort to not keep these long winded, I hope that some of you will join me in journey to my lofty goals as a powerlifter and even other strength related events. I'll post training, supplements and such and hopefully even get some feedback.

Thanks for indulging me and hopefully, we will all learn and gain something along the way.
