I was a fat kid my freshmen year of high school, and I built up some big muscles by senior year. I went from 165 lbs, not being able to do a pull up, to 185 lbs, doing 22 pull ups at a time. I good friends at the time were these two sticks who weighed in at 125 lbs each. I was proud to start showing the lines forming for my six pack, but they convinced me that I was still a blob. With my ego crushed, I quit regularly exercising for about 5 years.
Two years ago, I weighed in at 210 lbs, 5'6" tall, and now I weigh in at 185 lbs. I started going to the gym on a semi-regular basis, and now I have a regular training regiment. Tuesdays and Fridays I walk up and down a large hill backwards for about an hour, and Sundays I walk stairs for about an hour (averaging 300 flights per session). My legs are tree trunks, but my arms are sticks. It also helps that I work stagecrew periodically.
I think if I had to bench press, I could maybe max out at 200 lbs.
I think if I had to leg press, I could do 10 reps of 1000 lbs.
I can't test this because my gym membership expired.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
