Re: Misc. progress thread

I'm not saying stacking masteron or trenbolone with standard-dose amphetamines is advisable for fat loss, but I am saying going from 205lb to 175lb in 8 weeks with minor loss to your lifts or muscle mass is awesome.

Re: Misc. progress thread

first actual check up I've had in years with a primary care doctor today
I weigh 210 lbs
there's history of diabetes on my mom's side of the family

although fortunately, it seems like I got a lot of the genes from my dad's side of the family. but I haven't really thought about the idea of diabetes until I saw my weight and then proceeded to say something like "yeah my mom toes the lie of diabetes by working out"

kind of a slap in the face, really

It's a sad day that I weigh more than Arch0wl

Re: Misc. progress thread

It's a good thing I started cutting. Otherwise, both Arch0wl and Rubix would be lighter than me. I started at 184lbs on July 15th and am currently at 173lbs. So far, no lifts have suffered more than ~5lbs.

Pretty sure he died deadlifting too

Re: Misc. progress thread

I don't deadlift right now, too much lower back strain, been having problems there for a little while now.

Guess there's no reason to be alive. RIP

Re: Misc. progress thread

Forgot to post this but I recently benched 250lbs for 7 @ RPE 9.5, currently weighing 160lbs.

Big PR. Hoping to bench 3 plates for 1 by the end of 2016

Separate note, back is getting worse, went to doctor about it and she thinks it may be a disc hitting a nerve. Being sent for an MRI. Hopefully it's something I can fix so I can compete in the future.

Re: Misc. progress thread

Damn dude, sorry to hear about your back.

My back started giving me problems while squatting a few weeks ago. Felt like disk compression. Cause was probably related to ...from what I've determined, physiological buttwink that I can't really fix when hitting depth.

I spent over 2 months improving my flexibility thinking it was due to the typical "tight hamstring" crap I always hear. I improved my flexibility dramatically. My mobility was through the roof (can almost do a full splits). Buttwink completely unchanged though.

Made the executive decision 3 weeks ago that my back is far too important to be playing with, so I am completely done with squatting and traditional deadlifting forever.

I think it is for the best. I don't plan on competing and I don't want back problems. It's not worth it to me.

I'm doing Barbell lunges now instead of squats and LOVING them. Still doing RDLs and I've added Barbell hip thrusts (which are amazing btw holy shit).

Life is good, I don't feel like I'm missing out at all.

Bench PR for me today, 245 x 7. Holy shit, trying to catch Chris yet right now I weigh 192 LOL.

Re: Misc. progress thread

Interesting. I injured my back about a month ago from squatting and I also think it's the result of butt wink. I've started working towards increasing hamstring flexibility to solve that issue but your post is not giving me a lot of confidence Reach.

In other news my weight loss has pretty much halted. I'm only down a pound or two since my last post and all powerlifts (except for bench) have gone to hell as a result of the back injury.
