Any Lifters?

Once upon a time long, long ago...

 

Bench reps were with 302#

 

Both knees and both shoulders scoped over the years.

 

I live in pain...

 

If I had to do it again,  I'd do it way different.

I would never change it. I had too much fun in the process of getting how I am now.

I've got tendinitis in both shoulders and in my wrists. Both my hamstrings were partially torn 3 years ago, while leg pressing a massive amount of weight. Football and lifting has worn my knees out. For the most part I hurt every morning when I wake up. I hurt when I just lounge around for an extended period of time. Liftingand exercise ate the only things that makes the pain go away. Be it small weight at high reps. Or big weight at low reps.

Lifted a lot when I played high school football I was 17 the last time I lifted 19 now.

Bench - 400

Squat - 600

We power cleaned didn't dead lift I was horrible at it

Power clean - 200

Never hit the 400 mark on bench press. In high school I was maxing:

Bench: 330

Squats: 650

Power Cleans: 405

I don't lift any more but I did in high school. I was only 145 lbs lol

Bench 205

DL 450

Squat 250

Used to have fun on the peg board though!

I went to a really small high school and our gym teacher was also our football coach and basically our strength coach. What a joke. I feel like most kids don't get trained properly. I knew absolutely nothing about retracting your scapula, etc. I used to have shoulder pain all the time from lifting, that doesn't happen anymore. Never fully lokcout on presses where it puts pressure on your joints, always retract the scapula when you can. 

Always wanted to get into working out to help with my motocross and just to be healthier, but between being lazy and worried about embarrassing myself I never got into it. The most I done was pullups, situps, and pushups in my house.
