About 6-7 years ago I did a few months of fairly structured lifting as part of a weight training for semi-trained cyclists study at Glaxo (they were selling a new drink and wanted some data to point to the 'makes you super strong if you drink it' claims).
Had the benefit of lifting 3x a week in a quiet gym with a guy that knew what he was talking about telling me what to lift and how often, and making sure I warmed up properly and rested fully between sets.
I got to squatting around 165kg. I weigh about 73kg so it was objectively quite good.Been doing the standard StrongLifts routine for the last couple of months to try and get a bit of strength back rather than just running and cycling. Tends to be a couple of times a week, and mixed in with mostly cardio.
Fuck knows how I got close to 165kg before. I'm at about 100kg now and while that's not uncomfortable then it's a world away from the other numbers.New Years is upon us. Any wild goals or resolutions you lot are making?
2x bodyweight seems a decent goal given the /CSB above.
But then I would also quite like to get under 18mins for 5k, so I'm not sure how well those two combine.
