Dirty D that is awesome I am so glad you got things figured out and now your kicking ass in the gym again! I should have known you were a powerlifter! I look forward to hearing about your progress and 15lbs of muscle in 3 months is incredible! Keep it up D.

Thanks BB. My natural weight used to hover around 130. When I was lifting it was 142. 15lbs may seem like a lot, but I tend to set hard goals for myself; rarely have I had failed. And if I don't meet it, all the more reason to keep trying.

5'5" flat. I've never competed, but I came close when I was 20; a bad hip injury took me out of the game for a while. By the time I was recovered from that I didn't have the time to dedicate to it anymore.

The legs felt great today... no fatigue or stiffness.

The calories: I would love to be at 4000 a day, but I think the best I can do is 3200-3500. If I could have my own fridge in my office at work the 4000 could be attainable... given that they don't suck me into anymore 5 hour meetings.

How was that back workout today? I was lazy and didn't even go to the gym!

The back is solid. The pull downs were a little rough since my back is a lot stronger than my grip strength can support.... for now.

I'll be posting my complete progress at the end of the week.

Cool I worked back really hard and did a few lifts I hadn't done in years and I'm still a little sore. I look forward to hearing about your progress!
