True story

[HardToSquat]

Started lifting consistently 2 years ago, the first year I was lifting wrong and did not include squats and deadlifts and I drank extremely heavily. The second year I changed my diet, stopped drinking alcohol (for the most part) and started lifting with a much better routine.

Started lifting a lot better from reading forums such as this site, reading Stuart McRobert's books and from making general lifestyle changes.

[Fireplug]

Kind of hard to say when I actually started. i got my first set of weights and bench back in 77. I was 11 years old and started lifting then. In Jr High we we actually started on a structered program in football and have been lifting ever since. I am now going on close to 30 years of training. I have gone back and forth over the years on what my goals were. I have been pretty cut with about 5% to 8% BF over the past few years.
