Re: Misc. progress thread

I've been using Evernote for a long time to record all my stuff. It's cross platform so I can access it everywhere basically. I've had no issues with it so far.

I ran 1 mile yesterday. Trying to get back into running, but committing to anything for me is hard :/

Re: Misc. progress thread

So I went to this city festival and my friend introduced me to a group of friends of his and the first thing the guy called david does is give me a pat on the back and says: I can tell you lift just by the way present yourself / hold yourself (not perfect translation but close enough)

This little comment at the beginning of the night made me immensely happy yo haha

Re: Misc. progress thread

After doing exclusively paused bench for 2+ months now, holy shit progress.

Up to 225 x 6 paused. Tried TnG last night and hit 245 x 8. Massive PR for me. About doubled my reps @ 245 in that time.

Squatting I'm up to 300 x 6 high bar deep. Going well, still progressing slowly. Lift hasn't plateaued at all but I don't want to push it too fast.


Also, nice squat sam :o

Re: Misc. progress thread

So I'm nearing the end of my cut. While I don't really have a "before" picture, I do have a comparison of about last month and yesterday.



Much more successful with this cut than my last. This was more of an actual cut.

Re: Misc. progress thread

How much do you weigh now?

[Arch0wl]

Re: Misc. progress thread

Up to 270lb for 8 reps on squats (predicted max 335lb)

My squat progress has been ridiculous. It's definitely the lift I'm most genetically predisposed to gain on. Which sucks in some respects; I'd like to be this strong on bench, because bench is by far the biggest dick measurer. Being predisposed to make squat gains is great in other respects though, since it adds so much to your powerlifting total.
