Road to Getting Jacked

Haven’t posted on here in forever, thought i might aswell make a new training log. Some quick stats:

Squat (high bar, no wraps) - 250kg
Deadlift - 280kg
Bench press - 160kg
push press - around 130kg
log press - 120kg (did this ages ago so probably stronger now)

Bodyweight is around 115-120kg (yes im fat)

Numbers are probably going to start flying through the roof soon as in about 3 weeks time im about to start taking some additional supplements for the first time (wink wink).
