My Road to Big and Ripped

I have been keeping a log on another site for about four or five weeks so I figured I would just copy it here. I am 18 years old, 6’, 193lbs, I started working out at 236lbs and fat, dropped to 175lbs, realized that if I wanted to get ripped I would have to get smaller so I just started to eat a ton of really clean foods to get bigger about 11 weeks ago and I have made a lot of progress, bf% has gone from 17.5% to 14% and I have gained 18lbs.

I have been on this routine for about 5 weeks and I like it.

280lbs, 10x3, I am deadlifting at this little weight because I can’t grip that much but I am doing plate pinchers at the end of workouts to help with that.

BB Bench

250lbs, 4x5,1x4, I on the last set I could only get it half way without the spotter pulling it back up.
