Feel free to post here on progress, I am admittedly making this to mostly track my upcoming bulk up for the winter.

I fell out of the gym when I moved, then the pandemic happened, and my trips to the gym over the past 3 to 4 years have been very, very sparse. Been consistent with it the past 2 months though while trying to cut down weight, and gain some of my muscle mass back.

Currently at 153 pounds, my goal is 150. Lost about 18 pounds over the past 2 months, and the good news is my lifts have been improving, not stalling, or getting worse, while losing that weight. Which in my mind means I should have a fantastic bulk up session and should be at or around where I previously was in regards to strength.

My PR's from the past were;
Bench-275
Squat-395
Deadlift-450

I was around 190 pounds at those numbers. Right now at my 153 weight, squats and deadlifts are definitely taking a bit longer to get back into it. Current PR's are;
Bench-195
Squat-205
Deadlift-275

I fully expect to be at 150 or less in the next couple of weeks and will be posting progress as I go along.

Feel free to post advice on lifts, how your fitness journey is going. I'm always willing to put my meager 2 cents in! Losing weight, gaining weight, exercising, lifting, yoga, running, all this shit is hard! It always will be hard. Keep in mind that motivation is fleeting so you can't always rely on that and at the end of the day it will always come down to discipline. Keep it up! and don't let bad days discourage you, get your shit in and done. You'll feel better in the long run.
