Hi All,
Just joined up after lurking for sometime both here and on StrongLifts. Have been doing the SL5x5 for approx. 6 months, prior to which I did 6 months of Max-OT. I'm a pretty busy guy and can comfortably make it to the gym 3 times per week and in this regard SL5x5 has suited me well although I experienced better gains in terms of strength and size doing Max-OT. I'm very open minded and would welcome any advice from fellow members in regard to training, nutrition etc.
Anyway some info...
- Name: Jacob
- Age: 22
- Gender: Male
- Location: Gold Coast
- Occupation: QS
- Training experience: Competed in a few sports at a national level and lifted in supplementary fashion. Have become more serious about lifting in the last 12-18 months since giving away professional competition.
- Any Interests: Still play sport recreationally (twice per week) and coach. Generally enjoy an active lifestyle in between work and university commitments.
- Goals: First and foremost I would like to see my weights go up and I would be happy to put on 5kg lean size over the next 3-6 months. I feel that this is pretty realistic given my circumstances and I would hope that through the advice of ausbb members I could achieve this.
Some stats...
- Weight: 77kg
- Height: 180cm
- Body Fat: No idea although I'm pretty lean.
- Lifts: Wouldn't really know what my 1RM's are but my 5RM's are as follows. SQUAT: 90kg, BENCH PRESS: 90kg, DEAD LIFT: 120kg, OVERHEAD PRESS: 55kg, POWER CLEAN: 60kg.
Anyway, happy to be here and hope to become a good member of the community.
