Hi fellas!! Just letting everyone know, i was close to throwing in the towel!! My health wasnt real good, i was weighing around 260, my heart rate was 100+ blood pressure, 165/90..and i got out of breath just slowly walking....I got a little worried, so i decided to diet, added in some cardio, and was doing bb type training, nobody kill me for useing the bb word, i was still going heavy, well, today i weighed 251, tried my strength a little, and ill be damned, i didnt lose anything!!!! Im just going to drop to 242!! What i did was actually started eating more, but cleaner! And added in 30 minutes of cardio, 4 days a week..didnt hurt my strength at all, my heart rate is back down to 65..bp was 110/65!! and still strong!! And the ol' abs are back!!! WOO_HOO...i cant give up the powerlifting...im like a fish out of water with out it!! Hey PLJAY..we can battle it out at 242 bro!!!
 
thats great to hear dude...

hmmm i wonder what would happen if i did this. sometimes, but only at night, i have a hard time breathing. its like i cant inhale enough air. and i've been informed today by a chick that i've gotten a bit chunkier the last couple months. but i wouldnt wanna risk losing any strength..ill check my weight tomorrow
 
nice.. you probably wont lose much strength.. I weighed 138 and dropped down to the 132's, and all together i lost 9 lbs, and i lost maybe 30lbs off my total, some was just due to not thinking, not actual strength loss.

So at your weight, dropping 10 lbs should really have much effect on you.. and its alright you used the "BB" word, you'll be forgiven in time. Also, maybe the cardio will help your GPP and allow you to recover quicker.
 
Musclehead242?

Just a thought. Glad to hear you are in better health. I was around 230 feeling a bit sluggish, making my doctor nervous with my blood pressure. . . and damned if I ain''t still there.

Actually I have been keeping my weight as close as I can to 220 since my last meet, and although I am hungry pretty much all the time, I am not out of breath so much, and feel a little lighter on my feet.

I am hoping to put on enough muscle this winter to justify a move to the 242's but with guys like Musclehead and PowerlifterJay at 242, maybe I need to keep my narrow ass in the 220's.

Seriously, glad to hear about the improved health. We'd like to keep you around for a while.

musclehed275,
You did it the right way by eating more with just cleaner food.
Looks like me and PLJAY will both battle you in competition.
Anyways congrats on a good successful diet, and to a better health.

FREAK19
 
And I did not in any way forget the Freak at 242, I just hoped he would have the decency to stick with the juniors, at least until I get to the submasters.

B.
 
and you forgot Deciever at 148 (yup , thats right im movin up)... and dont think i wont jump up to 242's and show all you big guys how to really lift :)
 
My plan is to take the next couple of months to pull my weight down to either the 148's or 165's. I want to meet Deciever & IRBD in these weight classes so we can get it on. I'm ready to rumble! I will be tallest in my weight class but I will also exhibit a "wirey" strength that cannot be contained.

I have thrown the gauntlet on the ground. Who will accept my challenge? All comers are welcome to meet me in the designated weight classes. I will not be stopped and I cannot be contained. All will fall. There can be only ONE! :bigbuck:
 
hehe, i accept your challenge.. under one stipulation...
For every inch difference in height, i get 50lbs added onto my total.
 
Ya see Screwball,

Once again you have opened my eyes. I have been thinking about this whole thing the wrong way. If I was in the 148's I would be putting up some decent numbers, at least till the bar hit the floor, then I would still get my ass handed to me.

Wirey strength. I almost shot frosted mini wheats out my nose.

B.
 
No stipulations! I can see that the thought of my "wirey" frame frightens you. If I can keep my stick-like arms and legs from snapping like twigs under the weight, I know that I will be a force to be reckoned with. Meet me like man on an even playing field. In the unexpected event that I should lose, I will continue to pull weight until I find a weight class where my dominance will be seen in its' full glory. I will not be denied. :D
 
fine we'll meet on an even playing field... and if you win, maybe i'll buy you dinner.

Hell, if you come w/in 100 lbs of me in the next few months, i'll compete against you for total.
 
There is iron in your words as there is iron in your heart. It is done!

Oh, by the way, I have a fake idea that says I'm 15. How 'bout them apples? I will contend for all of the teen state records. If someone asks me why I look "old", I will lie and say that I have a very rare, accelerated aging disease. I have all of my bases covered and I aim to do some damage. :D
 
Just what I need. Someone else who totally out-benches me in my weight class.

Glad to hear your health is better, M275.
 
"My heart rate was 100+ blood pressure, 165/90..and i got out of breath just slowly walking. " That would scare me. Sounds like
you made the right decision to move to the 242 class. A few
extra pounds on your lifts are just flat not worth it if your health
gets pounded.
 
Hey Musclehed i love competition. But i got two guys i train with Jimme Dean and Freak19. Jimme is official at 523lbs @250lbs. He is gonna drop to 242. Maybe. Then Freak hit 518lb at 240lbs. You take them guys out , and then come knock on my door! Iam the undisputed champ of Florida! APA Florida State, AND APF Florida State record holder at 242 open! Shit ...Florida is my house!

Just messin with ya Musclehed! Lighten a hidden fire for ya. Actually you can just get in line with the others who have a fire burning for me! 242 in florida is the biggest class. I can name 8 to 10 guys that are over 500lbs.

Besides the Nationals were i will be 242, the bench bash i will be 220lbs, then if i qualify for the Arnold i will be again 220lbs. Then after that or The BB for cash if i dont qualify i will move up to the 275's, and go for the 700 plus! So really i have only one more meet at 242 for a while.

So to all of you 242's out there who want some, come to the Nationals in Oct and bring about a 650lb bench with ya! Cause with out that you will not challenge me!

All in fun bro's!

Wait one year. I weigh 222 as I type this. I will grow.

Jay, I'm coming for you! I have a years worth of juice and I plan to roll it all into one 15 week cycle that will culminate in me showing up at the Nationals at 242 lbs. @ 2% BF. I will be sporting a new LEGAL shirt totally redesigned and hand-stitched by a small asian family that resides on the forested slopes of Mt. Fugi. It will be a one of a kind shirt and it will easily add 300+ lbs. to my bench. I can't wait to savor my victory. I will be the first 400 lb. raw bencher to press 700+ lbs. shirted in competition. If your not afraid then you will be; you will be! It is my destiny. :D


CAN YOU DIG IT!
 
Hey Freak19....i in no way would forget about you..with that big total came a big bench too bro!! Your definetly a freak!! keep hitting it hard bro!!
 
Hey, I'm just not all good looks. I'm also an intellectual with quite the wit. Sometimes it's hard being so cool. :D
 
Hey guys i was just talkin shit! Musclehed is putting up big numbers in the gym, so who knows. In a weird way i wouldnt mind getting passed up. I need some more motivation. I look to Kenny Patterson as the man i wanna beat, but he is still way the hell away. A good rivalry is good for ya! I am glad to live in Florida were everyone is strong as hell!

Hey screwball dont you worry bro , you dont have to come down weight classes to me , i am coming up to you! 2003 i want 700 plus and i need body weight to do it. Then after i feel good withit i will drop to 242 again and try to beat the new record of 715lbs. That is my goal. And i am gonna do all i can to get it. And i got 2 yrs worth of shit too!
 
Jay, you're coming for me... :( And you have two years worth of shit... :(

Damn, I'm placing an order tonight. I need more goodies! :D

I was just messing around man. No need for you to move up in weight class. You look your best at 250 and under. Trust me, you need to stay lean and mean. You don't want to get chubby do you?
:D

Well i dont wana be chubby , but i do want 700 plus. I wanna get to 265lbs. That isnt gonna be hard, but i need to pack on more mass to up my raw bench. Believe me i plan on coming back down to my 242's. BUt ya know who knows, if I get a propr fitting shirt , i might hit 700 below 250lbs. I can lock it out on a 3 brd with my shirt its just the last 4 inches down.

I was just havin fun with ya! I mean you are the biggest dude on the board!

Screwball dude what's up with you and all this messin round 15 years old, dropin like 150lbs, YEA you'll look real good at 148 sure since ur like 6 3 or whatever. Have fun cutting weight.

Damn 242's guys that's horrible how much did you guys weigh at 17 or 18???

I'm hoping I stay in 181 or at least 198 for a while it seems like if I bump up to 220 I have to have a good 400+lbs on my total from whatever it is at that point
