Here it is f13/f49, JudoChop!'s official weight lifting log. I will be running starting strength with some slight personal adjustments. My format will be as follows "weight x sets x reps". If only one set is performed then it will simply be "weight x reps". Also, weight will be in pounds/lbs. because 'Merica. I will not update this log on a daily basis, but more likely every few days, or when I have a slight weight increase on a lift.
About JudoChop!: I am a cool dude from the Minneapolis/St. Paul suburbs. I have played sports all of my life. My main sport was soccer and I was good. I used to be in redic shape. I was also pretty good at rollerblading(aggressive inline). I now play Australian Rules Football for the Minnesota Freeze. I am also good at Aussie Rules, but my conditioning/BMI tends to be far higher than I prefer it these days. I also like to eat...so there is that.
This past summer I busted my ass and got my weight down to a pretty good level for me (195 lbs). But I bailed on my Aussie Rules team half way through the season and got lazy. I have lifted weights on and off since I was about 17 but all of that lifting was ill advised until now. I decided in October to officially stat Starting Strength. Because of this and because my wife was prego again I decided to be a bum and pack on the calories for cultivation of mass. My body shape is somewhere in between Mesomorphic and Endomorphic. I build muscle very easily but I am never "ripped" and typically always have a little gut(or a huge gut...like I do now). I am hoping to change that this summer by getting in the best shape of my life, by lifting on a constant basis while trying to lose my fat for my upcoming Aussie Rules season. It will be difficult but it is doable.
JudoChop!'s stats
Age: 30(fuck!)
Weight: 240 lbs. *heaviest I have been...partly due to laziness and SS.
Height: 5'9"
Current 1RM PRs
Push: 305 lbs.
Press: 205 lbs.
Pull: 405 lbs.**
Squat: 405 lbs.@@
Power Clean: 215 lbs.
** I never did the deadlift until I started SS. My core is by far my weakest area of my body, hence why the low deadlift in comparison to all other lifts.
@@ I lift in my garage. I used a Powertec half rack and I do not have the saftey arms. I lift on horse stall mats. When I tested for my squat PR I had my tiny wife as my spotter. 405 lbs wasnt that tough, and I realistically could have hit 430+ lbs. But with the wife spotting I didnt want to risk it. I also dont want to bail on the bar and weights if I dont have to. 405+ lbs. is a lot of weight to drop on those horse stall mats.
Goals for 2015:
Get body weight to 195 (or lower) lbs. and stay there. I have done it recently and will do it again. With me lifting and adding muscle, me at 195 lbs. would mean a very low body fat.
Push: 325 lbs.
Press: 225 lbs.
Pull: 500 lbs.
Squat: 500+ lbs.
Power Clean: 250 lbs.
Snatch: 205 lbs. (I just started and can do 135 lbs. easy)
