Hey guys, been quite some time since I've been active here-0 interest in MMA on an MMA forum will do that to a guy!
Anyway, I'll do a brief history of my lifting career and we can go from there.
24 years old
High school-senior year (2010/11) started lifting for rugby
Quit lifting after graduation
Got fat
Started lifting again October 2014
Lost 47lbs (187-140)
Battled binge eating disorder for 2 years
Continued making strength gain progress
Competed in my first PL meet August 2016-440 squat (wraps) 275 bench 465 deadlift @ 189lbs
Injured rotator cuff october 2016-quit lifting until january
Competed in 2nd PL meet March 2017- 425 squat (wraps/440 miss), 240 bench, 475 deadlift @195lbs
Started diet 3/13/17 with the goal to lose 30 to 35lbs
March 2017 meet recap: Bodyweight 195 (winter bulk but gained no muscle ayyy)
425 squat (no video) so heres the 440 fail (sorry for poor quality...idk)
240 bench (sorry for poor quality...idk)
475 deadlift
I train with a mixture of the RPE scale and percentages. 4x per week, typically. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Deloads are based on progress and when I feel the need. Most of my training sessions regarding squat and bench are relatively conservative because of prior injuries.
I'll update this log on days that I lift, with my current bodyweight, videos of the lifts, and the entire session written down
