Working Out
5'9'' 125 pounds. I'm a complete twig.
And I do like PE in school and play Baseball and Volleyball a lot in the spring and summer, that's kinda it.

you do not need to lift that much weight. you have to keep steady at what you are doing and maintain a sustained rythm.
Oh yeah, my school is a workout in and of itself. Seriously, the entire place is one six story hill.

No no don't give up...your goals are probably different then mine 😃 Like if we were to go and run up and down 5 flights of stairs I would probably have a mild heart attack while you were doing it backwards haha! ;o) its all for relaxation and joy 😃 Like your music, that sounds like your stress buster eh?
Bench: 505 x 1... ... Verman. HOLY ... FREAKING ... F*CK! ... ... That's a lot of weight. @_@'

I use my legs a lot more than my arms, so I can push more with them. Back in High School I could do like, six reps of 400 pounds with both legs, 2 of 250 with either individually. I haven't checked what I can do now. That's after a year and a half of heavy duty walking and stairjumping. I know it's not really an official workout or exercise or anything, but I've begun to jump stairs every chance I get. I'm up to a "casual" two up, and a "majority" three up, with a casual 2.5 stairs a second down, and a majority "two at a time" for two every one second.
I run 3-4 miles almost every day. I have been trying to loose just a few pounds, but its taking FOREVER. I've gone from 200lbs -> 185 in a few months, and I hope to eventually reach 170-175. It feels like I am putting more energy into it then what I am getting out. Maybe I need to focus more on my diet. :shrug:
Stairs = <3. My school is like stairmaster training ground.
My exercise usually involves walking several blocks from home to the 7-11 at the edge of downtown, at 3 am in the morning, to get some energy drinks. Which will later be consumed in the relaxation of my own room, in front of a TV and a computer screen, where only my arms will actually be utilized.

Bro is right, the school is insane...built on a hill, six stories, and the gym is many stories underground. It is a huge workout to climb them all everyday with a big weight on your back, and possibly carrying books as well.
I'm not that in-shape right now, just a lot of time on my feet at work. Hopefully I'll be swimming soon, which is my best/favorite sport but I need to build up to where I was a few years ago...
Personally I don't see the point in sculpting the fuck out of your body for no apparent reason. If you're going to be that good with it, you might as well be a police officer or a vigilante...
Ass to the grass... lots of those little saying around haha! Like "go hard or go home", "shutup and train", "balls to the walls" (sounds highly homosexual) and lastly "die young, die strong, Dianabol"
But yeah..low as possible on squats so that you think your gonna blow out your knees 😉 Deadlifts are the best! my favorite eva! Nothing hurts like them...theres times when I cant get out of my car the next day because my back is so sore... (course my car is low to the ground).
Sounds like teh fun. Pardon me as I go move my back.
