Introduce yourself

[Pains-4-Gains]

Hey all, I've just started reading around this place recently as I'm pretty new to lifting. I jus turned 18 years old and have been lifting for roughing a year. I'm soon to graduate high school and am then going to attend PSU!

Starting stats: 5'5" 125 lbs
Current: 5'7" 160 lbs

I have stuck to a beginner routine for basically the entire year I have been lifting, once in a while deciding to go heavier/lighter for a few weeks at a time. I've read through numerous boards and gathered all kinds of information on lifting. I'm planning on starting DC training in a few weeks, and maybe starting a training log in here for everyone to critque/ learn from.

Have been workin out for roughly 2 years now. Done a complete turn-around from my old lifestyle of eating junk and never exercising (was 5-10 and 225lbs then), 2 eatin healthy 95% of the time and lifting/running 6 - 7days a week. Still experimenting with workout routines and seeing rapid progress. Goal 4 now is to get as fit as possible naturally (no extra T or other boosters, with the exception of caffeine....lol).....both in endurance and overall strength.

I'm 28 and just started working out again this year after a 2 year layoff.

Stats are 6'1, 195lbs around 12% bodyfat (I'd guess). My goals this year are to get rid of all the extra lard I've put on during the last 2 years and build up a good base of strength.

I'm 24 yrs old, been lifting since I was 16. I started out having to do it for basketball and football. I really got into when I was about 18. I am 227 lbs at 13% bf and 6' tall. I used to be a member of this board in 2001, I have since came back because this is the best board on the net I have found. I work as a CNC programmer and I'm in school getting my degree in Machine Tool. I really love what I do. I have a boston terrier named Tyson. I guess thats about it. Its nice to meet all you guys and gals.

hey everyone,

been here reading the post for a while, also just went plantinum, I figure even though I wasnt posting I enjoyed the site so I may as well support it.

I've been lifting on and off for about 2 years, but things out of my control always seem to get in the way ie. major surgery, war with iraq, etc, so Ive never been able to make any real gains. I dont forsee anything in the near future getting in the way of me now though.

Im 6'4", 210lbs, and not a damn clue what my BF% is.

Hey everyone though I would post here first, I normally post at BB4U but found this place and there seems to be alot more experience. Im 22 6'1" and weight 200 currently bulking so I'm at about 13% body fat. I'm in the military currently in Iraq but just getting ready to go back home. I've been lifting for about 8 years with about a 2 or 3 year gap where I wasn't lifting. I started again back in January when I came to Iraq.

K, so I've been reading here for well over a year and made a few posts, but just thought i'd go ahead and introduce myself for ya all.

I've been lifting for about 7 years now, currently at about 200lbs 6'2" and 6-8%BF. Getting ready to start up on madcows 5x5 routine for the summer so look for a log of my gains and more info!

I am a sophmore in college, started lifting seriously about two years ago thanks to a friend. I love backpacking, hunting, and Mopars.

15%BF (According to my high tech scale, can vary anywhere from 10-15 depending on how much I have ate)

My upper body is starting to look to big for my legs so I have started training all muscle groups
