The Tin Man Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 This past weekend at the Fall Brawl for it All showdown at the Boston meetup, I got my first every powerlifting total! After beginning Starting Strength in mid-July, it turns out I'm stronger than I thought I was.Bodyweight: ~165 lbs (75kg)Bench: 160 lbs (72.7kg)Squat: 250 lbs (113kg)Deadlift: 335 lbs (152.3kg)And, from this, I hit two Epic Quest goals.☑ Squat 1RM 1.5xBW (☑ 9/8/2012)☑ Deadlift 1RM 2xBW (☑ 9/8/2012)Edit: Originally posted a mild self-congratulatory gif. To be honest after that deadlift I felt more like this (courtesy of chairokey): The Tin Man: Cyborg Ranger Tin Man's Out of Date Epic Quest I am what I do. Link to comment
Dapper_Kitty Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 That is so awesome! I'm in a mix of awe and jealousy right now! Hope some day I can do as much as that too [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Attempting Assassin STR:2 DEX:2 STA:3 CON:2 WIS:3 CHA:5 The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be- Ralph Waldo Emerson Link to comment

WizardTrip Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Awesome job Tin Man on the lifts and being able to mark off a couple of your epic quests! Stronger than you thought and only after a few short months...you'll keep getting stronger and stronger and stopping even these numbers in no time. It was great meeting you and being able to lift with you at the Fall Brawl for it All.
