First off, I'd like to say that free weight training has done a lot for me. I don't dread the gym anymore, I'm not bored when I'm in there, I feel confident, and I've found something I'm actually quite good at!
Following the semi-Paleo diet has not been so easy - but by building in some cheats here and there, it's a lot easier to cope with.
So with that in mind, here are the stats!
My weight:
86kg to 82kg - loss of 4kg or just over half a stone. Not much maybe - but not a vital stat to me.
My clothes:
Size UK14s are a little loose now, whereas they were a little snug before.
Bench press - my weakest lift! :
20kg on Jan 25th.....
...60kg on Mar 29th.
Squat - my favourite lift :
20kg on Jan 25th...
...80kg on Mar 29th.
And the mighty Deadlift:
28kg on Jan 25th...
...and 90kg on Mar 29th.
90kg! 90! I NEVER thought on that first day I'd ever lift that much. Even better, my 1-rep max (1RM) on deadlift is now 110kg.
So proud. I know these numbers are nothing compared to some...but they mean a lot to me.
