Mort. 09.28.18	i like to imagine that most of sputnik can barely stand let alone lift
SymbolicInTime 09.28.18	Just a few times a week
AffableMartyr 09.28.18	got to 260 max on bench, know it's not a lot but ended up blowing out shoulder. Been getting fatter ever since
Relinquished 09.28.18	not as hard as I used to but I got past the 1k club before
smaugman 09.28.18	Ye i did 2 tons bench not much but yea
Demon of the Fall 09.28.18	I'm very adept at lifting pint glasses, good workout
DirEnRefused 09.28.18	my bad big blob, i didn't realise there had been three similar threads in the last seven years
rabidfish 09.28.18	always thought lifting was boring af lol... could never get into it. i prefer short circuit work-outs with a group cuz i'm lazy but kinda competitive too, so having people around me to compare myself to helps a lot.
DirEnRefused 09.28.18	@affable, dude i literally just two months prior blew out my shoulder benching, you have my sympathies. the thing that helped me was not leaving it alone in the end, i had to dedicate myself pretty much nightly to rehabbing it, it just wasn't improving through rest
Cygnatti 09.28.18	I do not lift, but im tryin to my guys.
MO 09.28.18	damn that's a big total for your body weight, nice! 1325 is my total good luck on the comp dude
DirEnRefused 09.28.18	haha, thanks for the kind words. i think i have a sort of inferiority context because i lift with absolute savages who've been at it for a decade and have nationally competitive totals, but overall i'm proud of where i've gotten to so far. MO, you're a big lad, what's your training look like at the moment? i've been running an upper lower with a ton of volume for the last six months, dedicating a day to front squats and a day to back squats finally got me over the four plate hurdle
DominionMM1 09.28.18	two days of nothing but squats? damn dude that's some willpower right there
DirEnRefused 09.28.18	oh god no; more like five to eight sets, i do back work and some bodybuilding fluff afterwards, i'm not trying to end my life quite yet
neekafat 09.28.18	I dont lift anymore but I think my max was like 165 which is only good because I weigh like 120
neekafat 09.28.18	Squats I could kill at but I dont remember that max
MarsKid 09.28.18	Not a lifter, runner here. Muscles are toned but I'm not gonna be setting any bench records soon lol I log 20 or more miles per week, with ab and arm work outs throughout on intervals. Generally, one day is 5 miles devoted to running at a faster pace; next run is 7 miles at my normal/race performance pace; after that I split, doing 5 miles in the morning and 5 more in the afternoon; then the next day is 6 miles with no timer--just enjoying the run. Then the cycle begins anew. I swim and bike to break things up to get some cross-training in, and I do a full/active rest at least once a week. Recovery is the most forgotten aspect of exercise in my opinion.
Deathconscious 09.28.18	Id love to lift and run, my spine is too shitty though, so im stuck with cycling.
731 09.28.18
AffableMartyr 09.28.18	Biking always hurts my tight asshole
Sniff 09.28.18	Recovery is hella overrated
Snake. 09.28.18	wasn’t this same list made like four years ago
Relinquished 09.28.18	who cares
MO 09.28.18	"MO, you're a big lad, what's your training look like at the moment?" honestly it could be completely refined, I haven't changed up too much in a while, which has affected some of my lifts. I feel like my squat could easily be 50 lbs heavier I hit squats one day, working sets up to 405 and do 3-5 reps. deload for most of the rest of my leg workout. deadlifts work up to 450 and do 55 at that weight. chest I normally do volume 275 for 73. then a day for arms and shoulers, bit of core thrown in there. for my weight my lifts should be much higher, but life gets in the way of that lol
Sniff 09.28.18	https://imgur.com/a/Fr6x51Y this isn't the first list we've seen more than one of
Relinquished 09.28.18	fuckin life eh I could def go back to being 100-150lbs higher on my lifts but not a priority anymore
supremejelly 09.28.18	Ever since I moved 2 months ago I haven't stepped foot in a gym :( just try to keep my diet and cardio in control. For 2 years before though, I was doing some powerlifting routines. Not even comparable to you lol, 1200 is an amazing goal dude! good luck. I started with the beginners 'ice cream fitness' that had you squatting 3 times a week among other things. Luckily had no injuries besides a sprained ACL.
Divaman 09.28.18	I recline.
oltnabrick 09.28.18	used to lift before i started a new job last year but i just quit recently and im lifting again ooohhh ye
guitarded_chuck 09.28.18	im a beautiful fine tuned machine yes
Egarran 09.28.18	I maintain a muscle strength that is just above my girlfriend's so she can marvel at my physique.
AlexKzillion 09.28.18	I haven't lifted in a month 😭😭
DominionMM1 09.28.18	it's been a few weeks for me too. gonna try total body workouts for a bit and see how it goes.
DungeonBoy 09.28.18	I used to pretty diligently 10 years ago but I got so burnt out on it man. The gym is not the place I want to spend my life. I do basic calisthenics 3 days a week for around 45 minutes at my house, and it keeps me functionally strong and fit.
guitarded_chuck 09.28.18	dedicating say 4 hours of a 168 hour week to optimizing your health is surely not too much to ask
DungeonBoy 09.28.18	Yeah man, you get it! 3-4 hours tops to stay in shape a week is a good balanced amount in my book.
Egarran 09.28.18	So what are yall lifting outside the gym? Shopping bags? Beer kegs?
Deez 09.28.18	Tried so many times but the gym,weights, Lifing bores the fuck out of me. Im also terrified ill not be able to stop myself hastagging #GAINS over instagram photos. Used to box, Did BJJ for a few years, Now I look like an advert for african charities....but white....
DungeonBoy 09.28.18	I always carry a weeks worth of groceries in one trip, including cat litter, boxes of seltzer water, and gallon jugs of water. whatchy'all got on that?
DungeonBoy 09.28.18	@Deez Yeah man, I did muay thai and some BJJ for a few years and I've never been in more excellent shape in my life
sucellus 09.28.18	the most i have ever deadlifted was 400lb, just shy of 4 plates my goal is to deadlift 500lbs but i have 4 herniated discs so it's a stupid goal
supremejelly 09.28.18	@deezer I always thought lifting was incredibly boring until I got into compound lifts. That's where the fun is imo
Rowhaus 09.28.18	gotta lift always
Egarran 09.28.18	Damn straight db, I can carry 2 15L cat litter bags at least 100 meters.
WretchedCacophony 09.28.18	does taking it in the ass count as a work out? asking for a friend
Egarran 09.28.18	That's what soldiers do between wars. As is my historical understanding. So no.
Rowhaus 09.28.18	"does taking it in the ass count as a work out? asking for a friend" Ask Gene Simmons
Relinquished 09.28.18	you mean Richard Simmons
MO 09.28.18	"I always thought lifting was incredibly boring until I got into compound lifts." this so fucking hard, I didn't think it was boring so much as a chore. but with compound lifting it's so much better
GhostB1rd 09.30.18	Literally just buy a combo pull up / dip station, two 45 lb. plates and weight belt and you'll be stronger and leaner then 99.5% of the population. Lift heavy every three days. For legs just do hill sprints.
DominionMM1 09.30.18	^definitely something to be said for that
GhostB1rd 09.30.18	And if you're a tiny fucker or on juice just buy additional plate(s) as needed. Nobody needs more than four if you're a human.
GhostB1rd 09.30.18	Lol just trying to imagine doing a 390 lb. pull up with my 6'4" pterodactyl wingspan there'd be no fucking chance.
Egarran 09.30.18	On juice? Is it that normal?
Thalassic 09.30.18	I've been lifting since I was 17. I'm 6'1 and weigh about 207 lbs. Not really into powerlifting, because I'm a bit cautious with my back (back issues run in the family). More into muscle growth. Currently I can bench between 287 lbs to 308 lbs in sets of 8 to 10 reps and between 330 and 352 lbs for 3 reps.
