Since there is a space for introductions, I thought it would be a good idea to introduce myself.
My real name is Sven. I'm 22 and I've been lifting (seriously) since February. Before that I dabbled in bodyweight training and calisthenics.
Initially I did Starting Strength for about a month. I hit multiple plateaus so I abandoned it, and I moved on to a more "bodybuilding-style" program. Basically an upper/lower split, training 4 times a week. Did this for about 2 months and decided I wanted to train more frequently.
Right now I'm doing a different upper/lower split, and I'm doing it 6 times a week. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I'll train chest, back, biceps, triceps, shoulders and traps and on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays I'll train quads, hams, glutes, calves and abs. I've been doing this for 6 weeks.
Back when I started I weighed about 74kg and now about 78kg. My body fat percentage has stayed about the same (between 15% and 20%), based on visual estimates only.
Right now my lifts are about 130lbs for squat, 190lbs for deadlift and 150lbs for bench. This are not 1RMs because I never tested them.
That's about all there is to it.
