when I worked out in high school but real height weight now

weight:235
bench:240
squat:300 and something cant remember
dead:375
haven't lifted since so those numbers are no longer accurate

 

Been skimming this thread daily but never felt the urge to post. I'm a sophomore in college and I started lifting last February, inherited skinny Asian genes


height:5'11
weight:165
bench:235
squat:315x2
dead: 335

Don't be a prude, now. Look at Phil...he's the biggest slut I know

Sounds pretty cool. From what I've read, that's really similar to TKD, where you eat carbs before and after your workout. I'm gonna keep rolling with CKD, but if it stalls out, I'll look into backloading. It seems, if you wanted to do a clean bulk, backloading would be more suitable than CKD, too. Yes? Last question: with backloading, your body wouldn't be in ketosis, but rather just a low-carb diet, right?

Happy birthday to us

 

5'9inches.
Weight: 188 after I took a Olympic sized shit this morning.
Bench: Maybe 186 on a good day.
Deadlift: I'm as alive as they come.
Squat: something like 155/20 times.

 

You guys think adding 40lbs to my clean by May is too bog of a goal?

I put up 165 today on my last set,with a little struggle on the front squat part of it. I can get the bar on my shoulders fine.

I am not sure what my front squat is, but I usually to it as my last major lift on legs day and end around 175lbs, so it makes sense that I struggled with 165

 

my stats right now
Height:5'11
Weight: 278
Squat: 495 with wraps 475 with sleeves
bench: 325
deadlift:was 485 but havent done DL in a while

i was gonna say holy shit lol thats some anabolic gains right there haha

 

are you kinda new? i know for someone lifting for a while adding even 5-10lbs takes years. but those guys are lifting huge numbers.

 

Someone who does mostly body building type workouts who switches over to more of an olympic lifting routine probably wouldn't have an issue.
Form work helps a lot too. Minor adjustments will make a hard 165 seem like an easy 165.

 

No been lifting for a "while", had to take about a year off the gym for medical reasons (which was 2 years ago and more or less zapped 90% of everything). and this past year school+work kept me busy during gym hours so I've been on my bike a whole lot more to stay active.

but in highschool I peaked 270 on power clean and 275 on front squat. So I know the potential is "there".

I am not sure if that's to big of a jump to hope for. I do always like to aim big though

 

yeah if you have done it before you'll be doing it again in no time. i squatted 400 in high school, didn't lift for 2 years, squatting 400 again in about 2 month when i started back up.

 

If it makes you feel any better, I get 170. Once

I'm 6'2 162 (+/-2lbs).

yeah having too much money can be problematic at times.
