Bothell High School Attended 2009 to Present Bothell, Washington United States
When I Started:
Jun, 2009
How I Started:
June 4, 2008 - Hospitalized due to Anorexia Nervosa.
I have pretty much always wanted to be "ripped". so I thought eating less was the way to go. But... it ended wrongly with my heart practically not beating and me almost dying; depression and anorexia. 3 months after being diagnosed I was at 145 lbs, 45 pounds in 3 months. yuck. Barely any muscle.
My parents got me a YMCA membership in June 2009 and I really liked it. Now, it is September and I have just started getting more serious with the free weights and dieting.
Why I Love It:
You never stop learning.
How I Stay Motivated:
I don't need much motivation. Nobody forces me to workout, I just do it because I love it.
Eating and living a healthy lifestyle also just feels great.
BB Accomplishments:
None yet.

What baco_bacon Is Up To:
Nov 29, 2009
baco_baconupdated Fit Status "Started a new 4day split. Today was back, so far so good."
This was taken 2 weeks before being discharged from the hospital due to Anorexia Nervosa. It shows how much I've changed and keeps me motivated. 100 lbs
Back Relaxed COLD - 129.5lbs
2 months progress from first back picture.
Become 150 - lean. To inspire... and be proud.
My long term goal is to compete in at least one competition.
Goal (Long):
I'm looking to gain size and muscle mass while staying at a low BF, improve for sports, and sculpt a body that turns heads for sure.
I'm looking to reach my set out goals. Some examples are 135 bench, 100 military, 200 squat, and 220 deadlift all for 5 reps.
I used to run with a guy that ran 1.53 last track season, If anything my favorite is road running, did a few 10k events last year, but right now im cutting out the cardio to minimum
Because i only have 3 days i spilt it up inot Back/Bis Chest/Tris and Legs Shoulders. Usually my routine looks like this:
Squat 1x10 5x5
Leg extension 4x10
Leg press 2x10 2x6
Calf Raises 4x6/8
More calf work
then shoulder exercises like arnold presses and stuff
I've been using both and do the same weight on both but i prefer the plate one as you can get a fuller ROM on it. What does your leg routine look like?
not too great tbh haha, started squatting recently and also deads, my bench is 60kg, my squat is 50kg, and my dead is 50kg aswell, im still workin on proper form so havent gone heavy yet, just doing light weights for a week or two untill i get the form just right. My faveourite is the leg press on which i press 360 for 10 or Db benhch where i do 40s for 10, im just looking through yours and your squat has improved alot!
