Let me start by saying I have really started learning a lot from this forum. I haved messed around with weights all my life. I am 30yrs old right now and have always just tried to keep myself descent looking. I have always been fascinated with being strong so I have always tried to handle heavier weights. I feel like the good Lord blessed me with good genetics so why not try out something different like powerlifting. I weigh about 205 right now and I am a hard gainer. I can loose weight really quickly. My ? is am I to old to even get into something like this and I guess a even bigger ? would be do I have what it takes. As far as upper body strength goes here are some of my current lifts
Flat bench- 405x4 reps
Incline bench-365x3 reps
Seated behind neck military-275x4 reps
Hammer strength shoulder press-410x5 reps
Lower body- heres the sad part I have neglected my lower body for about 2 yrs now. I have probably only worked legs 3 times this year and unfortunately never done deadlifts. But my legs are genetically gifted and respond quickly and get very strong. I have recently started doing deads about 2 weeks ago along with legs. So I am working on form with deads right now
After my 2nd time ever doing deads I tried a max and pulled 500lbs. Hey it’s a starting point
On squats I go all the way to ground with it. Kind of like a catcher in baseball I go all the down and just sit there for about 3 seconds and try and explode back up. I got 405 for three reps the other day like that.
So there you have it. I believe if I had the right training regimen I could possibly get stronger. So any feed back negative or positive is greatly appreciated. Sorry for such a long post to!
