Thanks, my best is 515 and I'm gunning for 525 for my 55th birthday in a month.

Nice. Should be a great concert live, I'd imagine there'll be a TON of energy and an insane mosh or 2. My wife took me to Marilyn Manson & Slipknot for my birthday, they were both awesome live.

I just want my Deadlift & Standing Overhead Press to be as strong as possible, at my age I'm not trying to get much bigger.
Thrown in the mix will be things that help me build those lifts: Farmers Walks, Sled Dragging, Zercher Squats, etc...
