That's not going to do anything for your height. Your height is determined by your genetics and diet. Eat well and stay away from steroids until you've reached your full height.

I quit using patches, I'm July 2016.

I recommend them.

It was tough though, I basically tried to quit every Monday for about 2 years. Most of the time I wouldn't get to Tuesday. Eventually I must have wanted it enough.

I just find out what is wrong with my knee, fix it and walk without a limp. Hopefully I can squat or at least bike more in 2019. I also really wanted a new job by now.

We could start a GoFundMe?


In all seriousness, what have you been doing to get a new job? Looking in any specific field? Where are you located?

I am in China. But I can not get the job I want here, so I will leave for a while to return to Canada. I may end up taking yet another job I don't want to do, but first I will look a while longer and get a Canadian doctor to look at my knee.
 
Finally get up to the 100kg bodyweight mark with quality mass (currently around 96kg).
Squat 500 lbs.


Edit:
My first ever crack at 505 lbs

Have the depth, have the body weight, now the goal is to stay healthy and put it all together on the platform this summer.
Thanks TS, this was a great thread idea.

Nice work bro
 
Compete in first Olympic lifting meet (qualify for AO as a 50 year old Master)
Compete in first Powerlifting meet
50 years old...train at 80kg BW

Current 1rep maxes

Dead - 440lb
Squat - 350lb
Bench - 225lb (shoulder f'ed up...historical best is 280)
Snatch - 175lb
Clean and Jerk - 245lb

Would love to tell you I am shooting to improve on those numbers but truth be told my training has slowed a bit. Ramping back up so my hope is to be hitting those numbers with confidence again soon and would love to build on them a bit. Everything but the bench was a PR for me in 2018.

At least at 50 you're still chugging along! Good luck in reaching your goals.

Thanks. I might actually be doing my first Olympic lifting meet this weekend. Short notice as a spot opened up. I'm not really trained up for it but it would at least get me out of my comfort zone. Will see how the next couple days go in training then decide. Too much time off the past month or so...but for good reason (vacations)

Graded in Judo at the weekend, so that's one to tick off, although I expect I'll grade again before the year is out. Time to tackle the other ones now!
