Lifting the heavy things


Recommended Posts

Sorry bud I can't really help you out there. The thing that attracted me to the Paleo diet was being able to eat as much as I want. And that I did :) . I essentially just made sure I had enough protein in each meal, and filled up the rest with veges/fruit/nuts and oils etc. No calorie counting, and next to no macro tracking. what are your goals? and what shape are you in now?

I see. I'm also trying to do a semi-paleo diet. I'm currently doing 5x5 Stronglifts right now. Are you fmailiar with that one?

My current stats are:

Weight: 188 lbs

Height: 5'8

This is my 3rd week of doing SS:

Squats: 175 lbs

Deadlift: 200 lbs

OHP: 75 lbs

Bench Press: 135 lbs

Barbell Rows: 120 lbs

I am also doing some accessory work:

Max Pushups/Chinups: 13x

Dips: 25x

I also do occasional running and even sprinting

Everyday (if it is not raining) I walk with 2 10-lbs dumbbell in my backpack.

So far im doing ok but of course any input is very welcome!

I have never tried strong lifts but it is always highly recommended so I would definitely finish a full cycle of it at least :) I'm probably not the best person to come to for advice, I just sort of make it up as I go along and if I have a problem, or something I want to know I do some research. But best of luck!

Leg day this week, I tried to close up my front squat stance a bit. The stance is probably only slightly narrower, but I think it looks significantly better. Knee's traveling in a much straighter path. Also recorded some random exercises for fluff.
