Crown's Return and PL Thread
Hello everyone,
I am making my return. I am currently competing in Powerlifting, so sorry I am not some shredded up bodybuilding monster, but I look okay in my books and enjoy my sport. I am probably going to compete in a meet on 5/25 ... waiting to hear back I am definitely doing a meet in August as well. This thread will be my journey and trials towards those powerlifting meets and let you all know what good's I am running and what I think of them. I am not shy for the camera so expect a good deal of videos and pictures. Current Picture: http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/...psae764ee2.jpg http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/...ps93cb52bd.jpg Height: 5'4 Weight: 197lbs Goal: Height: 5'5 :p Weight: 220lbs Current stats (in competition, what I have done in the gym doesn't count) Squat: 365lbs Bench: 425lbs Deadlift: 435lbs My squat and deadlift are my weakest lifts and that will be changing rapidly.
