Proud of my Son

[3Deep]

Some of you know and have seen my youngest son in action with the weights and here me bragg.  Yesterday the coach call him in his office after workouts ( all the players thought he was getting in trouble) and gave him a letter from Florida State Coach Jimbo Fisher.  He will get to go to camp this summer down there for 3 days working out with the seminoles  coaching staff, guess he will never work with his old man screenprinting LOL.

Yeah he had a broken femur bone in his right leg...so far everything looks good no contact though, so thats going to be the next thing when full contact practice starts.  He hit 720 on the leg press a few weeks back, but hey you never know..if he can get a full ride to college and get that free education and play football on the side I,m happy.

That's awesome!

One of my greatest moments in life was squatting 735 lbs when I was 19 yrs old. I had legs like tree trunks from all the biking and skateboarding I did as a teen. I did it more to show the football jocks that a long haired hippy who smoked could do better than they could.

Can you elaborate on "biking"? I did some BMX flatland stuff in my teen years, competed throughout the region and had some local sponsors.

bmx and freestyle bicycle until I caught the coping and folded a rim on the vert ramp. then took up skateboarding as it was cheaper and didn't' damage the ramps like the bikes did. Got a road bike around 15 and would do 100+ mile weekends just so I didn't have to stay home and clean my room.

I rode a bike alot in my youth days too just to get away from...never squatted 735 but I had some of the fastest legs around.  How many kids do you see riding bikes now days?..my son still has his first bike and it looks brand new.
