Good diet, and smart training.. I'd say 8 months. But like ignorant lifting? 3 years i'd say.

HoldDaMayo · 02-13-2004, 04:09 PM

almost a year

PreMier · 02-13-2004, 04:22 PM

Close to 8 months educated. Before that... umm about 4 yrs.

**Mudge** · 02-13-2004, 05:48 PM

I've been pretty good over the last two years, got my first weight set when I was 11 years old.

lifting for 18 months. for the first 12 i was pretty ignorant of legs and nutrition but since then ive been putting on the beef.

**CowPimp** · 02-13-2004, 08:16 PM

I would say almost a year. However, I went on vacation for 7 weeks over the summer. Although I didn't do any heavy lifting, I brought some dumbells with me and did what I could. I just started a new routine based on the information I learned on this site at the beginning of this year.

RCfootball87 · 02-13-2004, 09:51 PM

almost 16 months now, and what does everyone mean by the "mind-muscle" connection?

titans1854 · 02-13-2004, 10:08 PM

2.5 years on and off because i don't lift during football season so that takes out around 8 of those months.

squanto · 02-13-2004, 11:25 PM

been about a year and 2 months of real lifting... started "lifting" about 6 years ago, but didnt gain all that much because of my diet. nice progress in the past year tho

x~factor · 02-14-2004, 07:06 AM

Joined the gym 8 years ago... not all were very productive.

**P-funk** · 02-14-2004, 07:11 AM

what kind of training? I started lifting weights when I was fourteen and pretty much have never stopped (24yrs old now). there were a couple years inbetween that I took of from lifting to persue distance running (beleive that!?). So if you are talking about just exercisesing then stragiht since is was 14yrs old.

DeadBolt · 02-14-2004, 10:04 AM

On and off for 1.5 years and serious for the past 9 months (educated and strict form)

JLB001 · 02-14-2004, 10:46 AM

On and off since July of 99, but steady since March of 2002.

myCATpowerlifts · 02-14-2004, 06:46 PM

i still do on and off....i dont know what to say
shit happens

myCATpowerlifts · 02-14-2004, 06:47 PM

its hard to keep steady when ur in high school
and when ur lazy, but i have been doing real good for the past month or so now lol
so hopefully after another month i wont quit for a couple of weeks and then do one workout then stop
then once a week for a month....I plan to really do it good now

myCATpowerlifts · 02-14-2004, 06:49 PM

but on and off is better than not at all

JerseyDevil · 02-15-2004, 05:42 AM

Started training 13 years ago, in my early 30s (yeah I'm old). Had a couple of lay offs in there, but have been training solid for the last three years.
