There is not much to say here except I’m 273 5’11 and 18 years old. Lifts are 315/500/600.I’m a cope wintergreen guy but i like a changeup every now and then. I’ve always been a 5x5,5x3 guy so the new volume is basically that type of workout with a little extra something. I posted a thread up in the powerlifting section on the routine id been running for a month or so but I’m gonna be makin a couple changes to it.

weird first post for a thread aimed at volume but today was my speed/form day and i was pretty happy with it, the pause squats were moving well and fixed a minor lockout thing for deadlifts
Lookin forward to the log, man. You have some strong lifts I see. I like cope wintergreen but I am a natural guy. My friend is a bitch and likes the extra long cut, because cope makes their long cut finer than other brands for some reason, as I’m sure you know. I hardly dip these days though, every once and I while I’ll go on a kick.
natural just dont sit right with me man, im actually testin out some skoal apple today and it aint bad. i didnt actually chew that much until a year or two ago when i moved into this little pocket of pa where a half log(yes 5 cans) cost 5 or 6 bucks. So needless to say my heavy lifts include a belt chalk and a spitter haha
