    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

ok... I'm in...

this is by far my worst exercise due to an old shoulder injury but i've been having some osteo treatment on my shoulder and it has been working an absolute treat.

I'm 101kg bw and have just started back at this after a couple of injuries. Current OHP is 35kg (i know, laugh in my general direction), however I am going to easily get to around 50kg i think... watching SS was a great help, really enjoyed it.

be seeing you guys up the leaderboard soon! will post back on when i hit 40kg.
starting date - March 2009
starting weight - 107kg (230lbs)
Bench goal - 99kg (220lbs) 5x5
Deadlift goal - 125kg (275lbs) 1x5
Squat goal - 125kg (275lbs) 5x5

Tharrr it is, right tharrrrr (Rippetoe). Starting Strength is great, highly recommend it.

as my previous PR was 5x5 I had to test 3x5 and give a try at 55kg. I got it and don't think I had been able to make it at 57,5 for today so it was a good guess.

Thanks Vlad but I was just being sarcastic, which is hard to do with text alone! i'll slowly but surely get up to around 50/60kg, there's no rush as this isn't some fad that i'm going to stop next week, I'm here until 1.5BW!! see you up the leaderboard mate! ;)
