Another 20 year old. Nice. When did you start? [/quote]
Just saw this, sorry!
I started powerlifting in november '09, so it’s been almost exactly 2 years.

Wow that’s quite a gain in weight sir. And a impressive raw total. How old were you when you started training?[/quote]
13 for football and lax. 22 for powerliftig. I’m 26 now.[/quote]
dude that’s some seriously impressive weight gain, I thought I did well jumping from 218 to 242. Would love to hover around 280 for a full meet cycle cos apparently those in know reckon a 242’r at 5’10 is too light. Your lifts must have went through the roof with the weight again alone![/quote]
I was 280 before I dropped to 229 (in 15 weeks). It took me a couple months to get the weight back on but then it came back with a vengence!!! Being skinny was awful.[/quote]
Haha spoken like a true big man. Speaking of big dudes. Nick weite was at the meet yesterday. Dudes a monster.[/quote]
Nick is a beast. He’s a friend of our gym. I’m lucky enough to train with his brother. Nick stops by when he’s back in Iowa.
I just dropped to 300

End up playing lax anywhere?
I only played for 2 years in high school. Ended up playing football for a pretty good DIII school in college though.

What college did you go to? if you don’t mind saying. I’m a little bit older than you, but we would have been in school at the same time. I went to JMU, but lived with some football players from Bridgewater. My wife went to Slippery Rock.

Hahaha, will do. I am just dicking around with Leangains and it’s working pretty well to keep my strength up while cutting. If I wind up below 260, I’ll probably start eating like no tomorrrow again.
Excuse me guys, I’m getting a complex here, can somebody toss me some steak and potatoes ASAP please? Thanks!
I’m 6’5 280 in the morning after voiding myself. Weighed in at 284 for my meet a couple weeks ago. Looking to fill out the 308’s for my next one 6 or so months from now, or at least break the 300 barrier.
Best meet lifts:
551/375/562

Haha, meal time! What fed do you compete in? I just had a meet on saturday. Next one is in march.
Last meet I did was 100% RAW fed. I really like them. Good atmosphere, good tight judging, and strong guys competing au natural.

Holy crap @ your squat beating your bench only by 35 lbs.
I have been lurking here, but I don’t post much.
Height: ~6’6"
Weight: 355lbs
Age: 33
Training: Been seriously training for 9.5 months now, started 1RM’s were 225 bench, 205 squat (yeah, I know), 265 DL.
Current PR’s:
Bench: 375x1 raw, 455 with an old hand-me-down shirt I am using.
Squat: 452x1 raw + wraps
Deadlift: 550x1 raw
So yeah, the squat is still my worst lift. I just have to keep working at it.
I am doing the raw APF contest in Chicago on December 11th. I am competing in the AAPF for now. This will be my first meet, wish me luck!
