shortstuff Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Ok so with a little bit of help from Ghost (and by help I mean motivation) I just dead lifted 35.5kg for the first time ever. Yea sure it was only once, but to me it's a sort of a big deal. I am/was always the short and weak one, and 35.5kg is more than half my body weight (my weight being 57kg). Although I am working on my strength, the fact that I can even lift 25kg is sort of mind blowing.So thanks goes to Ghost. Now just to get use to the fact that I just dead lifted more than half my weight STR – 24.45, DEX – 13.50, STA – 23.50, CON – 21.40, WIS – 27.65, CHA – 4.50When the sun comes up, you better start running - Thomas FriedmenEpic Quest - Current Challenge - Twitter - Goodreads - Fitbit - blog Link to comment
Pat G Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Good work Shortstuff. Good work Ghost for egging you on My first deadlift ever was lighter than that, so you are gunning it. 50% bw conquered, now on to bodyweight deadlift "Strength is the cup.

shortstuff Posted August 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Thanks, although its no where near as much as what some other people around here can do, it's still crazy to me that I can even left 25kg becuase I was always the weak one STR – 24.45, DEX – 13.50, STA – 23.50, CON – 21.40, WIS – 27.65, CHA – 4.50When the sun comes up, you better start running - Thomas FriedmenEpic Quest - Current Challenge - Twitter - Goodreads - Fitbit - blog Link to comment
