When I Started:
Nov, 2006
How I Started:
I started out in a weightlifting class my sophomore year of college.
Why I Love It:
Because I love to improve both on routes and in the weightroom.
How I Stay Motivated:
There is no better way to start the day than in a weight room and no better way to end it than topped out. Setting realistic but difficult goals keeps my motivation high. V6-7s and 5.13s here i come
BB Accomplishments:
When i first hit 225 on bench i was very excited, but every time i reach a goal i set a new one
What do I want.... good question with a complicated answer. I want to crimp up an overhung 5.13. I want quick feet. I want to dyno up to a 2 finger pocket. I want to work through a V7. I want to beat the crux.
I do not want to be big. I try not to forgo the benefits of functional athleticism for strength. I want to be as strong as possible without losing flexibility, agility, and endurance. It's all for the climb!
Heavy Workouts to improve strength and light workouts to keep my form in check and help sculpt. I am also an avid rock climber and i do that every other day.
G'day,great to hear from you. Training still cranking hardcore and just hit 6 mths! Still on the boxing drive at the moment and lovin it - though still hittin the beers hard of late! How are u, must be enjoying summer and the rock climbing. Cheers P
170 hey!...great achivement. Rock climbing sounds heaps fun - you are motivating me to wanna try it!! Hope you are havin a good week. Sat is my stat update day..think its good as the t'shirts are getting tighter in the right areas. Also, you must be enjoying the heat.
Mate - 180lbs..awesome!! Let the cutting games begin!!!. I just dropped another 1% BF in 4 weeks and gained 6.6lbs back..got another 6.6lbs to go. Thinking good training times are ahead - I keep track of your progress. Once again, great achievement!!
Rock climbing sounds cool. Yeh BSN Syntha 6 is high in BCAA's so you may want to consider this as a protein powder. Choclate flav. tastes awesome dude
Cheers.
Mate, just droppin by to see how your are going. What did you decide on the BCAA's? Hows the training coming along and studies are not too draining. Talk to you soon bro
Dude, thanks for the nutrition and cuttin advice way back - this has really helped me achieve 10% BF goal (2 weeks early!!), really stoked. Thanks heaps. Gotta get leaner though!!
So you were carb loading and salad dodging for spring break - good strategy hahaha..totally keepin it real!!
Hope you did not have any of those lite beers... wtf is that all about..
No doubt you will bounce back soon enough.
ah, thanks for the reply, bro. SO, u reduced calorie mainly by reducing simple carbs, right? and no carbs at night time.
My problem is I workout at around 7-8pm, then I have carbs (rice) at 10pm, then go to bed at 12am. If u were me, would u eliminate the rice?
