Good, after alot of success with DC training iv changed to more powerlifting style training. Im about 10lbs of the weight i wanna be (tho wen i get ther il probs want more lol), but after putting on 30lbs over the last 14months with DC, im confident i can get there.Diets pretty unchanged, its just the training that has.

Im almost fully qualified as persoanl trainer,+have qualifications thru rugby union as weight lifting instructor.
Its funny tho, but even with all that, i dont know much at all about powerlifting lol. More to it than i ever thought.

Such is the way of powerlifting, haha. What are you warming up with that you only get 12 reps? 315?

lmao.. i get tired at 12 reps with 225...but i'd much rather do 315 for 10! why i'm not sure exactly... todays' pressing 225 felt just as hard as 315! GO FIGURE!

I've got 235 for 12, do have video, and I'm female, 5'5' and 175@ 16% bodyfat...or you can see me on Reality TV soon, doing powerlifting, breaking records...I can back up everything with pics and video, I know how this site is. No pics or video, it didn't happen.

all drugs.

p.s this bench press challenged has failed brutally. 2 applications from people who produced feats an average gym rat could do.

Failed? We have two weeks left.

Apparently you are more than "the average gym rat" so why not enter? Show us how its done. No need to "apply," just enter.

Oh heavens no, this is Rons site. Drug free is the way we do it around here. I think you should do yourself a favor young lady and get off the sauce, you will thank me in the future.

Yes that may impress average gym rats, but this site is called 'getbig', you would think a forum with a 'powerlifting and strongman' section full of drug users would have produced a greater score lol, especially when the wrist strap equivelant of a tapout shirt is the reward

Ime not saying ime that strong myself, ime around the same level as magoo.

so pick up a camera and beat me! i'll be going to get the 25 on camera sometime soon hopefully, and if you're on my level feel FREE to take the number one spot.

the same thing happened with the 225 deadlift. everyone said "oh 30's gonna be a snap" and lo and behold only three of us manned up and did it. now you're saying 225x25 is "average", but aren't filming it.

so come on, tough guy. you get $100 in free supplements amongst other things, what do ya have to lose?

Did you see the kind of shit that happend to squadfather?.. and anyway, i would lose the respect of everyone in the gym if i went in and recorded myself benching for an internet forum, i have nothing to prove and couldn't care less what you think, but its obvious my comment affected you because you just melted down incredibly.

-anyway, this topic has gone way off, this space should be for people who are going to enter a vid, oh yea there isn't anyone. might aswell send the prizes to magoo already.

Compares himself to SquadFather.

Believes everyone in the gym "respects" him.

Cant back up a thing he says.

Sounds like a true GetBigger!
