Who is our biggest, most shredded member at Meso?

Fuck me man. That's some serious power...

I definitely loss some strength, deadlift was at 725lbs 3RM now its at 605lbs 3RM (mind you i couldn't deadlift for 3 months). Squat went down from 695lbs 3RM to 600lbs 3RM and bench was the less disappointing loss it went from 435lbs 3RM to 365lbs 3RM. So yeah strength is down quite a bit and size is down quite a bit as well. All the clothes that was tight on me is now baggy as shit lol

Thats some BIG lifting , I cant hardly get 725lbs off the floor !

I'm sure I wouldn't move that weight, yet...

Hubris and possibly some fudging
Certainly possible. But that comes out to 3.6x his bw on the deadlift...

It was more like 3x my body weight my goal was 4x never reached it though not even close lol mind you i was on TNE and took some halo when i preformed that. I was running test e tren e & EQ.

And would you ever pull that 725 with confidence ever again? Great you made a recovery and you should be able to get your gains back soon

405 for a single for me recently. Hoping to do more at my age lol

 

[Oregongearhead]

My best deadlift is 530lbs , never tryed more so Ive always figured my PR is around 550lbs. Never wanted to blow out my back and Ive came close .

Idk to be honest with you. It took a lot of dedication to get to that kind of power and most my time spent in the gym was centered around getting my deadlift up. Seeing that i have a lot of friends that think i should be bodybuilding i thought i might try and compete some time in the near future. So to answer your question i don't think ill be attempting it any time soon.

When i first started lifting i could hit 405 for reps as a natty.

Bro don't lol if you feel like it'll blow out your back then fuck that. I still have terrible sciatic pain every now and then especially the day after i do deads.

Still a very respectable weight to pull.

I don't go pass 500lbs very often any more.

I am hoping I can pull a 495 on my next cycle this summer. And I will certainly not bring my ego into that lol.

Form is everything when doing deads, and training for different parts of the pull will get you there and beyond.
