Some Numbers/Facts

I have spent the past 8 months bulking slowly, going from a lean 6’1 200 to 6’1 220. I have lost some definition, but I have never cared about that, I am lookimg for the power. My goal is to get to a healthy 240 maybe 250, and then cut down the excess, we’ll see what happens.

I have recently graduated college, and with that I leave behind a town where everything is cheap as hell, and a badass powerlifting gym. I, for the time being, have moved down to charleston, sc, to live with my gf for a while til a land a job. This means that my meals consist mainly of ground beef, chicken, pasta, eggs, some bread, water, MILK, and almonds. Also, I have had to trade in my powerlifting gym for a fucking Gold’s Gym, shoot me in the fucking head.

The greatest meal a lifter can eat, in my opinion, is a breakfast burrito. When I make mine, I usually cook a pound of lean beef and throw in 7 eggs, and wrap that shit up in 2 wheat tortillas, and a large glass of milk. Throw some buffalo or tiger sauce on it too, amazing.

My current supps are BCAA’s, I don’t see a need for anything else right now mainly because of the budget, but also because I am taking in so much food.

Numbers (All 1RM)

Bench 365
Deadlift 520
Squat 455 <— I’m working on this

You guys want any more info or more numbers, let me know.

Your military press is fucking STRONG! Surprised your bench isn’t a lot heavier. I personally have almsoy exactly the same as your, yet can military maybe 225. That’s probably because I just started fucking with them, but still, good shit bro.

Thanks dude, military press is just something that comes so so easy, maybe on my next shoulder day i’ll try and max and see how much I can do.

I agree with austin, you have a pretty beastly military. But all your numbers are very impressive, ill be checking in reguarly, keep it up!

WTF dude! You can overhead press 285 x 4… so probably at least 315/325 as a max, but can only max bench 365? That’s nuts.

You should throw up some progress pics. We’re about the same height and weight (you’re a bit bigger and stronger). Just curious to see whacha look like. I remember reading your posts when I first joined this forum as a young tike a few years ago haha.

Stay strong, see you in the BOI. You are definitely a monster.

Haha, shoulders are def my strong point, and I have been fighting to get my bench max back to 405. If it makes a difference, I keep my back on the bench and don’t do that arching bullshit, so maybe if I did that, my max would be higher on bench.

I wish I had pics, or even a camera, but I can go ahead and tell you your physique is a LOT more impressive to look at than mine, I am just a lot of mass. I mean I have abs, but they are currently covered by some fat due to the bulk. The rest is just a large back, large shoulders and big arms (About 20 inches i’d say).

Oh well, I have always wanted the monster powerlifter look a lot more than the arnold look.

How fast are yer mile runs? Stay jacked dood.

During a Murph, not fast because the pull-ups and all that shit kill you, so maybe like 9 minutes, I kinda switch between jogging, to a light sprint.

Pretty stoked about the incline porogress since I havent maxed at incline in MONTHS, it is good to know I can def. get over 300 on incline, and I am excited for the 285 on MP after the heavy incline. Good day.

Nice work

Very nice.

What are your goals for squat and deadlift?

hey man, great work, you Military press is ridiculous.

Get it bigger.

haha, I havent really thought about that, just keep the numbers going up. Squat won’t be too hard, but I think DL will be because I am bulking and the extra weight is straining my back at times because I have two herniated discs. So I might be doing more rack pulls because it has less stress on my back.

Why do you ask carlos, you got any suggestions?
