lol funny but ya.. good work.. its not easy losing all that weight.. it takes hard work and commitment.. and once you burn all that fat and gain more lean muscles .. you'll burn more calories a day

if anything .. when i lost all that weight/fat ..it was because of the food i ate -> and the amount of calories i consumed too

i was once in the 200lb range too

Deadlifts. Mine are always SUPER sore after a DL day.
Moreso than when I shrug

first day of strength training , did 3x5 instead of 5x5 though. Today was chest day. finally pushed 175 on bb bench press, it's slow but eventually i'll get to where you big guys are at! haha only been going to the gym regularly for the past 6 months so i still got lots of catching up to do :P

Had some guy complain to me that I was dropping the barbell during deadlifts, and the sound was hurting his ears. Now it's not like I was dropping it with a foot left to the ground; I was setting it down near the end of the set. Apparently, the clanging bothers him.

I find it odd that he decided to talk to me, and not all the others guys in the background who were dropping their dumbbells for 15 + minutes.

Been trying to focus on upper chest and I think it's paying off. My front delts are starting to get big though. Side and rear delts are having a hard time keeping up.

Berz out.

You know maybe he can DL more than me. It was during my warm up. I just find it ridiculous that he has the twisted sense to complain to me when there are so many other people making noise in the gym. The gym isn't a library setting, and I was by no means the loudest guy there.

End of a DL set, you're tired, you want the weight out of your hands. But i'm not being a douche, dropping it with tons of air time.

I just don't like how he made it seem like I was being the jerk.
