I am a 24 year old lifetime natural. My dad got me started on weights at age 13, but I've only been training seriously for about a year. My training is centered around heavy free weight exercises, with some machines mixed in. The 5x5 training system has given me my best gains, which is why I use it on almost all upper-body exercises. I'm currently focused on increasing my bench press numbers, though I may start doing deadlifts and squats again in the near future. I am a little under 6'0" tall and weigh 245 lb, but I'm trying to lose weight at the moment.
