New guy here

[Jester_EightFour]

Been lurking for awhile and decided to join recently. Seems like there is a lot of good info around here.

I started lifting weights back when I was 18 and stayed fairly consistent until I was 25 or so. I got real big into grip training with the Captains of Crush and Warren Getting grippers for right around 3 years. I did get strong enough to come super close to closing the #3.5. Went through a divorce in 2012 which messed with my head and I stopped training everything.

Fast forward to now; I'm married with a couple small kiddos and back into training. My stats are below. Thanks guys!

Age: 31
Height: 5'8
Weight: 163lb
Best Bench: 260
Best Squat: 300
Best Deadlift: 365

I'm obviously working back at beating my previous bests.

Welcome to Meso. I've toyed with the idea of getting one of those Captains of Crush grip trainers, just never got around to it.

They'll make you question your grip strength for sure lol

Welcome!! Glad you got yourself back into training. Took quite a long break myself years ago and it felt great getting back into it again. Good luck and hope you enjoy it here at meso
