This is Seth Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 New woot of the week : 2 plates for my last set of squats. Love me some squats. Starting to think I should spend a few days finding out what my maxes really are.. Quote You ever see those guys who look like they totally used to be in shape? I'm working to get back to that...

This is Seth Posted October 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I kind of forgot about this thread... Woots for the past few days: Paid off a ton of my student loans, as they were really starting to nag me. Got to two plates on my dead lifts. Really need to work on grip strength before I progress any further here. Quote You ever see those guys who look like they totally used to be in shape? I'm working to get back to that...

This is Seth Posted December 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Haven't exactly added to this thread all too regularly, but this past week has been pretty woot worthy. I wanted to share with everyone because a lot of the things that I've accomplished is because of the poking and prodding, I mean helpful encouragement, of my fellow rebels. This past week, I hit 300lbs for 5RM @205bw for both squats and dead lifts. I also just went out shopping today for some random presents and ended up picking up two new shirts for myself. One is a "fitted" and the other is a "slim fit". I don't think I could consider myself a true slim fit, but the fact that this shirt looks damn good on me has me pumped beyond belief. Thanks to everyone for pushing me through this last challenge. Quote You ever see those guys who look like they totally used to be in shape? I'm working to get back to that... Link to comment
ETFnerd Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Congrats dude. I've also been buying the slim fit shirts. Great marketing gimmick isn't it? I also picked up some athletic fit suits and they are stll loose in the torso. It's a perk and woot-worthy but hard on the wallet. Well, after I donate my old clothes maybe someone can use it at an interview and get a job... Quote i don't care what u think of me. unless u think i'm awesome. in which case u're right.

I'm super impressed and more than a bit envious. New FAIL goal: catch up to Seth. Quote Link to comment
Gainsdalf the Whey Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Nice! One of my goals for next year is going to be to look good in those express fitted shirts. I almost got there last time I lost weight, so we'll see.

This is Seth Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 A large Express MX1 Fitted is a perfect fit for me at my current build. Pretty pumped by that... they're so stretchy and shiny. And I keep getting massive coupons from them in the mail. Love me some bargain fashion shopping. Sartorial MeatHead for life.

ETFnerd Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 This must be the only (mostly, I guess) straight forum where guys hang out talking about clothes...
