Is this a national meet, like you are the best u105 in USA? B 93.32 130 137 141 137 170 175 176 176 313 (20th place london 2012) You could do either if you learn to weight cut properly, 8% bodyweight is really easy (and you can push it a bit more) I would dismember babies to make raw powerlifting an olympic sport. Given it still won't happen, you must attain my dream. Nah it was just a local meet. The top lifter in 105 is totalling around 370kg (still not enough for him to go to the olympics). Still lots of work to do. | ||

But if I keep at it for another year I think I'll look ok, and then another year or two before I'll look like I lift haha. Gonna need to weigh 100kg+ before my arms and shoulders are gonna look decent I'm afraid. EDIT: You guys should also post pics yo. Especially curious about Cambium (cos he was ripped a year ago) and phyre, because he's about the same height as I am. gogogogo Did a bunch of random stuff last year like swimming, running, muay thai (okay this was only for a week) and oly lifts. I don't think I look anywhere near where I looked a year ago haha. I'll post a progress pic this weekend  | ||

Been on and off the last few months started at 229 back in Early November at 216 right now. Been really consistent lately and hoping to keep it up for at least 6 months. Hoping to get back to where I was before I quit the last time. Bench 260 for 3 sets of 6 Dead lift 325 3 sets of 6 Squat umm just looking to improve form and weight as I go. It's my weakest of the three. (These were my numbers before I quit) Edit: currently a lot weaker than those numbers and am not worried about getting there anytime soon. Mainly just focusing on keeping good form and always improving it. Been weight lifting for way to fucking long and weight is more or less not a thing to let bother you. My main problem is keeping a consistent effort for a long period of time. Gains will come accordingly | ||

Age: 23 || Height: 180cm || Weight: 75kg Starting Date: 4th April 2013 || Goal Date: 1st Sept. 2014 Weight goals -- This is a bit comlicated, as my initial goal last year was to lose weight, which I did. Lost 20kilos within the timespan from april to December. I've had some hiatus here and there and woulda probably reached way more, than I did. My nutrition also didn't change all too much last year and I am only starting now to take that part of training more serious. Right now I am at the point of reduce my bodyfat only, trying to slightly "bulk up" afterwards. Aiming at max 80kilos [I'll explain this later why] Training goals -- I don't have any specific Training goals. As long as I am able to get my pulse up to 180 with each workout I'm satisfied. I am training with a 3-split: Chest / Arms, Legs, Restday, Back / Shoulder, Restday -> Repeat. Nutrition goals -- I've started doing CBL [Carb BackLoading by John Kiefer] Last week. And I'm in the preperation phase right now and I've already seen some nice changes on myself. Things are going good so far and I'm interested on how things will pan out, when I've finished the preperation phase. Also I haven't been using any special supplements as up until now and just bought my first packet of Whey Protein, because it was highly recommended by a friend of mine, who is quite knowledgable in terms of fitness and nutrition. Furthermore I've read lots of good things about it, so he can't be THAT wrong  Sleep goals -- Phew. Sleeping 8 hours is what I consider a lot already, as I often have problems falling asleep before midnight. Since I have to get up at 6 AM every day, to get to work on time I usually sleep around 6 hours each night. I always go by bike, leaving the house at 7AM. The distance to work is 6 kilometers. I work from 8AM to 5PM and end up being at home around 6 PM. I get home, calm down a bit, go train, get back home, prepare the food for the next day, take a shower and suddenly it's 11PM again [like just now]. So yeah overall I'd like to be able to sleep a bit more. Misc/stress goals: The biggest goal I want to achieve this year is succesfully finish my exams, as I am becoming a Physiotherapist. Which is the reason, why I wanted to lose weight so badly, because I thought to myself "Who is going to trust a fat Physio? I certainly wouldn't". I've been a bit over average weight my whole life, but in 2012-early 2013 it just kept going up, due to me quitting sports - I used to do Latin Dancing, which is comparable to a major HIIT workout over 2hours if you want to compare it to a "regular workout". As mentioned earlier I wouldn't want to go over 80kilos, since I want to stay agile and versatile. An aesthetic and fit body is my goal. In addition to that my dream, if you want to call it like that, is to be in the Physio-Team of a world-class football (soccer) club, like Bayern München, ManU, Arsenal etc. Furthermore I want to keep motivating people around me to live healthy, which is some kind of treat I have. I am able to give part ofmy energy to other people, like a reverse Spirit Bomb or some kind. So, that's about what there's to say about me. Feel free to ask me anything, be it related to Fitness, Therapy or whatever. Just drop a message here on via PM. I might not yet be a fully fledged Physio yet, but I'll be glad, if I can help out. | ||

Also, hit a PR today in squats. Got 360x1 which is 2x bodyweight so I'm super psyched about that! My lifting buddy got 370 so I'm pretty jealous haha but it's all good. Also, almost got 240x1 as PR for bench, but barely missed it. Edit: Also, getting close to using 45 plates for my dip sets! ^^ | ||

I realized I was terrible at that today when I was doing some warm ups with some light cleans that I honestly should be able to have perfect form with, but I feel like lost range of motion in the shoulder there is killing me.

The chiro at my gym started poking around my sub scapula a little bit. Holy shit I was almost in tears from him barely digging in there. Lots of work to be done. Need to get a sports massage. | ||

http://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/jason-blaha-ice-cream-fitness-5x5-novice-workout I don't have access to cables or anything, so I'll have to find some substitutes to those exercises. For the tricep extensions I probably can just do dumbbell tricep extensions or weighted dips because I don't have access to cables. Hyperextensions aren't really an option for me, so I might just take those out or do pull ups instead. For workout B, I'm planning on getting rid of the lighter barbell rows in favor of weighted pull ups, and doing dips/weighted dips instead of close grip BP. In the Q&A it says you can just do dips instead and I'd prefer to do dips instead tbh. The cable crunches seem like I can just replace them with weighted crunches instead. Any tips/comments? The supplemental exercises seem to not matter nearly as much as the other exercises, so I think I should be ok with switching them out as long as I follow roughly the same intensity/set parameters. | ||
