Ernie Jr is interviewed by Lift.net and talks about his start in powerlifting as well as injuries he has over come. Heres a preview:
"LIFT: Can you tell us a little about yourself, give us a little background?
I started powerlifting when I was twelve with my dad. At that time my dad trained me on and off until the age of sixteen when I became very serious about powerlifting, and haven’t stopped since.
I have always lifted raw, but in 2007 I started to incorporate gear into my lifting when I began training with team Zenzen. I competed for a year in gear and stopped after I suffered a severe injury while squatting at a meet. I had 760lbs on my back when it happened.
