Just hit a new PB 1 RM dead. 115. Over the strawberry floating moon. Me and trainer both thought after that I had a 120 as 115 went smooth, but as Id just done 105, 110 & 115 we didnt want to push it. Next week we are going for 120 and then going to bang out sets of 100x5 which was my next personal goal.
I also have some gooseberry fool progress pics. They are gooseberry fool but its the best I can do right now. I should also clarify I dont think Im in any way impressive or bragging, but Im pleased with how far Ive come.
Before:
Now:
I stumbled upon the before picture the other day when I was sorting some folders out, and found it pretty shocking. At the time I remember reading about Christian Bale in The Machinist and how he was 55/56kg and looked like he was dying - I was a couple of kg below him but I didnt think I looked that bad. I can see now that I was strawberry floating dying, and it coincides with some of the shittest times in my life.
The now pic is over 4.5st(!) weight difference.
Im having people actually come up to me and tell me that Im looking healthy and that I seem to be growing out, which is good.
