In Episode 143 of The Powerlifter's Den, Cam sits down with Delroy McQueen, a lifter whose career has spanned more than two decades across both Olympic weightlifting and powerlifting. From competing internationally in weightlifting to building an elite career in single ply, multi ply, raw, and raw with wraps, Delroy has proven that longevity is one of the greatest achievements in strength sports.We dive into his transition from Olympic lifting to powerlifting, the mindset that's kept him competing for over 20 years, and the incredible story of squatting 1010 pounds with only two people in the gym. Delroy also reflects on recovering from a career threatening elbow injury, pulling 909 pounds, and why his next mission is to become one of the few lifters to deadlift 400kg in competition at over 50 years old.
