Hey

Diesel13 · 02-28-2006, 02:28 AM

Hey, How's it going? I'm new to the forums, and I have been lifting for a little over a year. I am 15 and will enter my first competition in early march for bench, and strict curl. I'm 5' 8'' and 170 lbs.

**Grunt76** · 02-28-2006, 03:13 AM

Cool, welcome aboard. We're all here to help, so feel free to ask questions!

Hey Diesel welcome to Ironmass! What are you currently benching and curling? Good luck in your competition.

DarkFalcon- Yesterday was my first Bench attempt shirted, after many sets without the shirt It was put on me, and I did some doubles to break it in. With 175 the bar barely went down. We tried 200 but it was about 6 inches over my chest. At 225 the bar hovered two or three inches over my chest. At 235 I was able to pull the bar to my chest and did two reps. I tried 245, again I pulled the bar to my chest, it wasn't the cleanest attempt in the world, but I locked it out. As for curling after a few sets my max is 110 nothing special, but I think it will be better than other 15 year olds. I have always had "average arms" but each year, they grow an inch, now they are matching my age.

Very impressive! :nosthumbs: Are you thinking of leaning toward powerlifting training?

HClubPrez- I'll take pics on Friday, I forgot my camera on Monday. I'm cutting to the 165 class so hopefully I'll make a killing.

DarkFalcon- Thank you, and yes I currently am leaning towards powerlifting, but my brother being a bodybuilder I can't help but look at myself, and try to improve size, and symmetry. But as of now, I'm shooting for making, and breaking records. Although that may change in the future.
