anybody into bodybuilding/powerlifting?

I'm still trying to burn fat and build lean mass, but I'm still stuck on my ultimate goal of getting down to 200 lbs. I'm so close, been hovering between 206 and 209 for like a month now, I did weigh in at 203 one day a couple weeks ago.

I just make one goal and shoot for it. My current goal is 500lbs dead lift. I am going to try it in the next couple weeks. I just did 485lbs on Monday and it went up pretty easy I feel confident I could do 500lbs now but I am taking my time because I don't want to hurt myself.

Right on man. Haven't been on here much but been in the gym more. Thinking about doing some sort or challenge again, keeps me locked in a little better, just not sure what its going to be yet.

Maybe layout a 3 month plan of 5/3/1 as it goes in 4 week intervals and set maxes 3 months out to work up too.

Been a while since I posted here, kinda forgot about it. :D

Today I went in angry as fuck from a shit day at work. Put on the album "VIA" by Volumes, and went to fucking town on my legs. They are burning like a mother now, but it was worth it. While doing squats, I kept piling on weight until I did a 3-rep max of 195. I was pretty proud of myself.

Has anyone ever weighed their nut sack before and after you unload?

havent checked in here in a while either, just got back up to 200lbs ever since last summer. 20yo, 6ft.
bench up, 210x4 (from 205x2)
squat up 245x5 (from hardly getting 185 up at all)
deadlift up 365x2 from 335x1
this winter im getting up to 225 in weight, having a lot of protein shakes and eating a whole lot.

How about cheek muscles ect?

Are you talking about buttcheek?

Cause I got those ;D

[LowR3V'in]

I notice you guys are talking about back and arm muscles and it seems like
that's what it's all about, but would you guys give respect to d00dz with ripped finger and or toe muscles?

When do you plan on doing another 1 million pound challenge, IronFreak?

Thats a good questions.....I've gotten kind of flabby......probably the near future hahaha!

We're like total opposites. My dead lift is wayyy stronger than my bench.

Bench seems to be the slowest for me in progress.

I haven't worked on back exclusively like I have chest/bench

I could probably do more, but I've never actually maxed my dead lift


Haven't stepped in the gym for weeks, went last week for chest. Two sets @ 225lbs
Luckily still got it lol

Only thing I've been lifting lately is 12oz. curls and ratchets......work and school have been brutal, any free time I like to wrench.

My wife on the other hand is 10 weeks out from her next show, she's going to blow people away.

Yeah, me too. My dead lift is 465 lbs, but my bench is 245 lbs. I am 6'2 199 lbs.
