The ComeBacKid85 Report

[ComeBacKid85]

Starting from a clean slate. Everything before was practice. Shit just got real! 34yrs old 5’10” 185lbs. My first goals are 200lb everything. My weight, and max bench,squat,and deadlift. Definitely working mainly out of garage gym but will join outside gym in the future. I have a Gold’s Gym starter bench and bar with 110 lbs on it. But I’m repping the hell out of that for now. I will post some pics soon. Going to buy some plates ASAP then I will be able to post up some numbers. Any advice on where to get cheaper plates would be much appreciated. I got shorter 100lb barbell different size. Update soon. You guys all have inspired me sooooo much so far I figured the least I could do is share my story and try to encourage someone else.

Facebook marketplace will have lots of stuff from local people.

$1 per lb is about the average cost of new plates. About half that is good for used.

Checked local. Nobody had anything bigger than 25lb close by. Small city close by has a target 8$ over priced on one 35lb plate. No thank you! Had buddy get them online. Cap brand good price free shipping. Smelled like a deal. Got them in the gym tonight. So total weight I have on 2” bar 180lb. Deadlifted it for 8,9,10,10,8,9. Feels great. Gets heavy quick in my hands like I can barely hang on but I don’t let go. I got glove /wraps but not the kind that go around bar. I want my hands stronger not tie weight to me. I’m using my old belt. Gold’s too. Had to dust her off. Got a pinch in right shoulder at the top of front felt lifts. I’ve been doing a bunch of trigger point therapy with it and extra stretching besides my full body everyday routine. So for now using 20lb rubber bands for strengthening it. Isn’t too bad and I keep getting stronger everywhere so go baby go. Will go to the chiropractor in the future.

Seen a good thread on where and what blood work to have done before ever starting a cycle. So hope to make contact with them this Friday and get all set up. That will be money well spent. Excited to see where I’m at numbers wise, and can’t wait to feel even better yet.

Are we talking Olympic style weights, or something different?

 

[ComeBacKid85]

Olympic for sure. Got good deals online. As long as you can get free delivery it’s a good deal.

Today’s dead lift with 180lb 10,10,8,10,10. I will get more today. Beauty of the home gym. 187lb on the scale once a week weigh in. I will keep posting. It’s been a challenge to eat as much as I need to. I have to write it down and watch videos of huge dudes. It helps haha. Been living on this forum. Haven’t watched any videos in a week. That’s is strange my wife says. All you guys are great keep up the good work. Hope to have some bigger numbers tonight and if I can figure out how some pics.

Black Fridays coming up too. Few years ago I got over 700 lbs in plates. Most gold's gym style. For under 400. You have to find good shipping deals if you can't go pick it up. That's where you will get killed.

Found the deals on eBay, even though most of it shipped from a Walmart distribution center somewhere. Doesn't make any difference to me. If it fits on the bar I'm good.

As you can see I’m starting with no back. I will always be able to look back at this and remember how unhappy I was at this size. For as long as I can as strong as I can be I’m getting FRICKIN HUGE!!!! And when the numbers say stop I will and look like Dave Palumbo haha. Dude still looks great.

Studying a lot on technique and just everything bodybuilding. Dorian Yates is amazing. Never herd of the negative of a lift before. Was taught push and breath out and suck in when the bar drops. I like it total control. Thought I had good form before. Yeah not so much. Went way lighter this past week and it felt great. I never did warm up sets ever. Now I understand it’s importance. Holidays been crazy so only been getting the most important lifts in. Bench,squats,dead’s, and sit ups. My fitness pal is working great I eat almost all the same few things boring but I like it. Always over 3300 cal, and getting cleaner with the choices. Taking two rest days on this new schedule I’m putting together cuz I’m joining a real gym Buddy I’m excited. Time to up faze this experiment haha. Anytime fitness will have to do for now. Next week after holiday I will go sign up. Then it’s just pain and gains baby. Post when I got something. Kill It!!!!
