          Yeah, Logan was impressive, for sure.

          Mike, never got any e-mails from you. Just left you a message on your phone.

          Al, I have a VERY serious complaint to lodge against you.

          Since there seems to be doubt that my strength is a product of science-based training, I’ve come to believe that it must instead be due to genetics, in particular the growth of my handlebar mustache. However, you can’t see it in the bench press photo you published. Are you trying to undermine my genetics?

            I think Al has his hands on the bar, undermining science and genetics by aiding you in a BS record.

                What are you saying ET? Is that meant to be a joke?

                  Thanks Jim, appreciate that. There’s actually a story that goes along with this.

                  Bryan let Al know that the record book didn’t accurately reflect his 1990 Open record. This was last year. I had assumed that the most current USAWA and IAWA record books had updated his Open record and that the listed 363 was correct. So I went 365 first to break his record and then for shits and giggles went 375. Not until Al’s write-up did I notice a problem. Like Al mentioned to me, “good thing you didn’t go 370.” Man, that would’ve really sucked. As it stands, had I known that the record was 374 I would’ve just taken 350 as my last warmup and then hit 380 before moving on to the reverse grip bench. I don’t like breaking a record by a pound or a fractional plate in a record breaker’s meet. So now I have to decide whether to go ahead and bump it up some more or not…
