She was an extremely muscular child from infancy, with a sixpack by the time she was 18 months. She's still crazy muscular, and I was also very muscular as a child and build muscle bulk at an unusually rapid rate. Probably some minor mutation.

Orkadian is not minor.

I kind of envy you about the IGF-1 thing.

I'm starting to understand the desire to juice up. I'm not going to do it though, but I do understand those who do.



Also: I'm now squatting 300 pounds without spotters. A nice little milestone.

Nice.

I am now able to squat, period.  There's enough muscle around my right kneecap.

Only 185 LBs, but that's better than not being able to do body-only  bench squats a year ago.

I need you guys to come move a piano for me next week, if you don't mind.

Sure.  If it's a grand, Waffle has to use both arms.

And Roger can lounge on top of it in a red cocktail dress.  :oops:

I naturally have the figure of a stick insect, so I've recently I've taken working out my arms to approach the size and shape of a regular human.

I'm starting with ten pound weights. I'm working my way up.  :lulz:

That's in fact how you do it.  Steady progression beats absolute numbers, and trying to be the Hulk on day one is how you fuck your shoulders for life.

Did a fairly OK comp on friday.

Missed all my third attempts, but still won the gold medal (don't ask how many I competed against).

Ended up with
155kg (342lbs) squat, 100kg (220lbs) bench, and 185kg (408lbs) deadlift for a 440kg (970lbs) total.

Of these, the deadlift was my only actual PR. The bench and squat were comp PRs though.

I am, right now, in a class by myself, so I feel ya.  It's also  why I don't compete.

Then I died.

Bench is now 315 LBS/142 KG.

That's the Olympic bar and six 45 pound plates (3 per side, not 6 per side).

In related news, my arms are swollen meatbags full of poison and sickness.

Your bench is almost as much as my squat.
Tested for maxes yesterday.
237 bench (107,5 kg)
353 squat (160 kg)

Testing dreadlift tomorrow.
Xmas meet on the 19th. Should manage a 1000lbs total.
