Well then.

Let's have a race to 80kg. :tongue:


That was a nice physique for sure.

Well on your way to being able to get the better of most women. And some men. :u:
Since 14' on and off, I find it really hard to stick to a routine. I'm good with cardio though.

You look close to that, have been lifting 1.5 years but have the following stats:

bench: 20kg
ohp: 10kg
squat: 30kg
deadlift: 45kg

Something doesn't give...

What are your actual (or approximate) 1 rep maxes? And c'mon ivy you can't look anywhere near that picture and be OHPing 10kg...most girls even with absolutely no muscle could OHP 10kg a few times having never stepped into a gym.
Nearly 10 years LOL

80? that number scares me :redface: i wanna get to 70, that'd be enough for me. its really hard for me to gain weight anyway so 70 would be amazing. however i gain muscle super fast, luckily :biggrin:

*most men :colone:

why would i lie about it? :lol:
depends, mostly 2x5 and 1x3 for deads

i noticed that i follow a routine that is different from most people, found what works the best for my body, nothing wrong with that. and its working so why should i change it

and um thats a face pic, that was actually taken back in summer. i get criticised for my gym routine a lot lol, nothing new tbh :/
