  1. Journey of a newbie lifter

    I downloaded the Greyskull spreadsheet an have looked at ton of info on it. Looks like a solid plan, hoping to pick up that bench and bar setup Monday. Only has 85# worth of plates so I’ll have to stock up some extras to follow the incremental increases that follow the plan.

    Most certainly will be searching tonight! Thanks for the info. I’m still suppose to go check out a bench a bar setup but now we have a storm coming this weekend so have to hold off to get over there.

  3. Journey of a newbie lifter

    I have a veggie most everyday during a lunch or dinner, usually zucchini/squash, broccoli, green beans, asparagus is the go to’s. I’m sure I can up it some more to add in extra fiber for the week. I pretty much knew this is the way, I think I overhyped myself on reading so much. I have a...

    Edited a before picture in post… Yes I’m going to drop to 10# on the lat raises an up the reps to keep form and control. I’ve got a lead on a bench an bar setup for cheap or free I’m going to check out this coming weekend when I’m off work. Friday when I do shoulder press again I’m going to...

    March 9th Sept 16th Not sure if images will work, but just wanted to post my last “progress” picture. I’m keeping a folder of them each month to see progression. In the mirror I don’t see it, but my wife says she’s already noticed my shoulders and arms looking bigger. So that’s always nice...
