Muscle mass.
Body weight 171 lbs.
Finally growing in the mirror and not just the scale!

So today was funny. It really is hard trying to lose weight and get stronger. I’ve lost 45 lbs officially since Labor Day. I’m finally hitting my first near failures. Today was:
BP: 162.5 5/5/7
Barbell Row: 127.5 5/5/7
Squat: 200 5/5/7
The funny part is I’m so nearsighted and didn’t have my readers. I was also just not there. I racked up my rows as OP. And I’m at 110 working weight on OP. I got three OPs up at 127.5 and was like “holly crap, what happened?!? How did I lose so much progress?” Duh.

6’2 217 lbs male. 24 years old
Before my disc bulge injury, I was squatting 370 lbs for 5 reps and that was my absolute limit. I have genetically long femurs which makes it harder to squat with depth and safe form. The longer your femurs are, the more range of motion you have compared to a shorter person with shorter femurs. If I tried 405 I probably would have completely herniated my disc.
Can’t go above 225 on deadlift or I risk tweaking my back. I sucked arse as benching due to my genetics so I never bothered trying to get to a certain number on that m.
Now I just train for my fitness. I’m not trying to impress anyone, I just want to reap the health benefits of lifting weights

Can do 100 pushups
I’m down to 219
I’m old a crooked from the glory days of ego lifting.
It’s about survival now.

I saw the Barstool idiots do their own combine and their best guy hit 135 32x on bench and I wondered how many I could get.

We hit some max lifts this week..
285x1 on Bench
275x2 on Front Squat
207.5x1 on Strict Press
1RM deadlift tomorrow
CrossFit gym so we had 15-18 min to warmup and hit these. Normally, I take much longer in a normal setting to do this so my lifts are probably a tad higher on each.
