I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

Hello from Canada

Hey, My name is Rick. I found this site through 4chan (of all places) I need somewhere like this to discuss things and hopefully get some answers to some questions. I have been lifting off and on for about a year. I just purchased a squat rack so I decided to re-start SL. After 4 weeks so far here's where my lifts are sitting.

6'2 190 lbs

Bench - 195lbs
Squat - 245lbs
Deadlift - 290lbs
OP - 120 lbs

Current Bench - 215 Deadlift - 305 Squat- 275 Op - 125

Just wait here and we'll get someone by to hose you down before you come in here. :wink:

Joking aside, that's great progress you're making there, long may it continue.

The hose down may be a good idea :oops:

Thanks
