Making the Switch!!!

[kingc_79]

i've always wanted to powerlift instead of bb but always thought i was way too small, but i've finally said fuck it... after my surgery, i'm gonna start training for powerlifting.(dunno if i would ever get good enough to compete) but i really intersted in strength and size more than anything.
the improvements i've made lately really helped change my mind. i just started doin heavy gm's and doing dl's, etc.. all the basic compounds and all i can say i wow!

welcome to Strength Tranining!!!
you dont have to be "good enough to compete" because you are only competing with yourself.
just go and set your own pr's and you will do fine
