Reforming the Fat Slob (strength, weightloss, boxing)

[Jester]

damn PR's everywhere, nice lifting man

heck of a truck pull too

 

[JauntyAngle]

This was a local truck pull competition. This was my first attempt at anything like this. I placed 5th out of 12.

Awesome. Does it make you want to do Strongman?

I think strongman would be be fun, but I'm way too weak to be competitive at all. I have been thinking about trying Highland Games though.

 

[Jester]

sure my newbie gains will wear off before too long, only been at it 2 months now

jealous of your bench though, i just got 205x3 and that was a big gain for me, but you are doing 210x10

GREAT DAY IN THE GYM!

After a week and a half off I hit the gym. I had missed my deadlift day, but I really just wanted to squat.

June 20

Squat
Broomstickx10
135x5
185x3
225x3
250x3
285x3
320x3
355x1 +25# PR
365x1 +35# PR

I was feeling really good after that 320 for a triple so I decided to go for a PR. Finally my squats catch up with the progress in my deadlift in bench!



Bench
135x8
175x3
195x3
220x7

OHS
broomstick x10
95x3 (And those were hard. I have new respect for OHS)

The best part of this squat is:

460 Deadlift
+275 Bench
+365 Squat
----------------
1100 Total!

I came up with this about a month ago. It is my revised goals for the rest of the year. Its not periodized, but it at least gives me something tangible to work toward.


Month/Weight/Big 3 Total/Mile Time/Continuous Run/Heavy Bag/Squat/Push Press
June 240 1065 10:50 1/2 mile 4 rounds 340 185
July. 234 1090 10:15 3/4 mile 5 rounds 350 195
Aug. 226 1115 9:45 1 mile..... 6 rounds 360 200
Sept 218 1140 9:15 1 1/4 mile 6 rounds 370 205
Oct.. 210 1160 8:50 1 1/2 mile 7 rounds 380 210
Nov. 205 1180 8:30 1 3/4 mile 7 rounds 390 215
Dec. 200 1200 8:15 2 miles..... 8 rounds 400 220

 

[Jester]

nice looking goals, already crushed some of next months.

hitting 1200 while losing that much weight will be hard but if you do it that would be awesome. Lifting 1200 while 200 pounds would also make you one strong guy for your size. good luck

 

[TheeFaulted]

Yeah we'll see how it goes. My original goals for this year have already been met minus squat, and so I'm trying to up the goals, so I have something more to work toward.

My original goals were:

Squat 375 (365)
Bench 275 (275)
Deadlift 450 (460)

So I don't think bumping those up to these numbers should be too difficult

Squat 400
Bench 300
Deadlift 500

The conditioning and weight loss could be another story. My thought though is that I'll work on weight loss and conditioning hard the next two months, bump the lifts back up after that, and then wrestling season should help me finish my weight loss goal.

i definatly think you can do it, seem to have to drive to accomplish it if you put your mind to it. congrats on crushing all your year goals before july, haha

you much of a competitive person?

 

[TheeFaulted]

Yeah, I've been kicking around the idea of competing in boxing late summer/fall

nice, i saw that in your title, if you do you should get some vids somehow and post them


i propose a mini contest between me and you for the hell of it. race to 900 combined for squat/deadlift, you have 40lbs on me now (825/785) but i have some newbie gains left and you will be losing weight, hopefully even the playing field a little

 

[TheeFaulted]

How about a wager? A sig bet perhaps?

Shit is getting interesting in here.

[TheeFaulted]
