Rampage 500# Jackson

RAMPAGE JACKSON
500LB Dead lift


Shot this video last night during one of our meat head sessions (LEGIT Strength class) 

I wanna make a big deal of out of this. For one, its 500 freakin pounds which is impressive no matter who you are and for two, the work thats gone on to get to this point. You see a 12 sec clip of Ed getting a 500LB deadlift. I see over a year of dedication and blue collar hard work to get that lift. I always flash back to Ed's first WOD and remember him hitting about 10 KB swings before his back locked up on him. Only a couple of mins had gone by in the workout and he was DONE. You could see the disapointment and frustration on his face. The easy thing to do is to whine, complain, make excuses, and quit. Ed never took that route. He took it day by day and improved WOD by WOD making a little progress at a time. Plain and simple-- He worked his ass off for this!! Thats why its such a special moment. When you think about a success story you have to think about Ed. From the guy I saw a year ago to the guy I see today its a amazing result and a unbelievable change. Take your victory lap cause this a sweet moment in training that not many ever experience. Congrats brotha!!  #ManOnAMission
