hey everyone, might as well give you some basic info before i start this log.
im currently 21. in 2nd battalion recce platoon, 3.5 years in the army. im 6’3" and now 231lbs. i started powerlifting when i was 16, joined the army a month after my 18th birthday (fall of 2007), at that point i stopped powerlifting and got into running and conditioning work.
got serious into running and cut to 195lbs, with a 18:19 5km, and a 1hr 29min half marathon. still doing weights but they werent the focus. last summer i started powerlifting again, got to 213lbs and competed in a full raw army meet in december, went- 355/265/525 for a 1145 total @213bw. from december 2010 until 2 months ago i was doing crossfit and dropped to 198lbs, i competed in a national army crossfit comp in march and finished 2nd of 80.
in may i stopped seeing having fun with crossfit and was barely setting pr’s on wods, so lost interest and came back to powerlifting. my intention is to comepete raw in the cpu in september and november, and for the army in december.
