Overall Goal: eventually get up to 200lbs. of muscle and to just look good naked.
Fit Status:
just getting back into the swing of things. been going three weeks now using light weight w high reps to get body used to it. so far so good
took weightlifting in gym class. each quarter had something different but was able to take it at least half the year. going into high school i was around 120 maybe 130 and that's probably pushing it. i was really small for a freshman considering i graduated weighing around 150.
Why I Love It:
it makes me feel more energetic. i just started back up after a year from it and felt better.
How I Stay Motivated:
i subscribe to flex and i like how the guys look in them (a little too big for me but cool anyways). i want to stay fit and not be skinny like my dad. he's around 160lbs and looks bony. plus i have a dog over 100 lbs and still growing that makes me look small.
BB Accomplishments:
i competed in a bench competition at the illinois state fair around 4 years ago and won in my weight class (only lifted 225), i weighed around 160 or so.
two years ago i was able to bench 235 for two reps with a couple of friends witnessing it but haven't checked since then.
Forum Signature:
no matter what you use (weights, machines, body weight, etc.) or how low a weight you use, it's better than nothing.

eventually get up to 200lbs. of muscle and to just look good naked.
Goal (Long):
i lost 15 lbs of muscle in the last year and gained 5 lbs of fat back. i want to gain that muscle back so i can be back up to 185 and work my way up to 200. once i achieve that we'll see where i go. i've always been skinny due to my dad's genes and hated it. by the time next summer comes round i hope to be at at least 190 or 195.
Right now 15-20 to get my muscles used to it again and also to try and burn some fat gain endurance.
Also 6-12 for heavier lifts to gain strength. Any less than that i don't think the muscle is getting worked to enough to be built.Right now 15-20 to get my muscles used to it again and also to try and burn some fat gain endurance.

How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
between 30 sec. to 1 minute. i wait for my breathing to calm down after a set.

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
that's a really tough choice. Brad Pitt from Troy; The Rock from The Game Plan; Vin Diesel... there are quite a few.
i've been back in the game now for about three weeks. it feels great. i didn't want to post something sooner cause something usually happens to halt my progress, so far so good. been doing light weight with high reps (around 15). next week i'm start heavy lifting for a couple of weeks then go...
Actually so far everything is according to plan cos I did want to see their kittens...perhaps there will be one with blue eyes ;) They are getting fixed after the kittens are born. Furry will have to be the first to go...poor him!!!
truth is everybody's got the abs, just hidden by some fat. thanks for the encouragement though man i can get pretty pessimistic. what i want so bad is bulk enough that people (well, girls) would notice without me having to take my shirt off...and to be big enough that people stop calling me skinny. i hope i can bulk up like you eventually but its hard not to be impatient.
Wow that really sucks...So the question is what did you do to your hand? A buddy of mine hit his armoire and he couldn't lift because he hurt his hand...I don't know whats up with you guys and hitting things but it pretty funny...well not really just silly more than anything...well keep me in the loop on how your doing!!! :-D
