What is something in the past year that makes you happy or proud? Maybe you learned something new, finally got that thing you wanted for ages, managed to make a hard decision with a good outcome. etc etc.
No pressure to share if you don’t want to. Hope you all have a good new years eve :)
It took two years but I finally achieved a 1000lb powerlifting total. It’s not a huge number but I do feel proud of myself, and physically I have never felt better. Outgrew my wardrobe twice, and can’t find jeans that fit but otherwise 10/10 would recommend lifting to anyone
I was going to post about having lifted consistently for four months going from a 20lbs dumbbell press to 45lbs and seeing results. Then I see your 1,000lbs and it blows my mind that you don’t think that’s impressive!
Great work! My one rep max on a deadlift is 200 and right now I am over the moon that I have lost my beer gut. Let’s keep the momentum!
Seems huge to me man. Congrats
You know I think that’s the social media influence showing. Fitness influencers post these incredible lifts and physiques that are seriously impressive, it’s important to keep in mind that these are genetically gifted people posting their highlight reels, in their prime, and on gear
holy crap
