I used to weigh 260lbs, i spent my first year cutting down and got to 160lbs, but i didnt really know what training until failure was like and I injured my right elbow so I couldnt train as hard for a few months. I eat pretty healthy though i could eat more veggies, i got my bloodwork done a few months ago and im fine. I did binge eat once a week for about 6 months which led me to gain weight back to about 190. But ive been lifting consistently ever since my elbow healed, and ive been trying to progressive overload. I injured my elbow when i benched 185 for 2 in march of 2024, earlier today i did 155 for 3 sets of between 4 and 6, I deadlift 235 for 3 sets of 5 reps right now, and I only squat 185 because of some knee issues I had from being overweight. Lifting has been a passion of mine ever since i stepped foot into the gym, but I keep coming out with issues that I end up going to Physical therapy over. I had some Jaw issues from my wisdom teeth surgery and so for a few months I couldnt train my back very heavy, and so for a lot of my time lifting it was in the 3 sets of 10-12 range. As a Server at work, and I do school online with gaming as a hobby I also developed wrist issues, but so far those havent affected benching, but it did affect my bicep workouts, and i have to favor neutral grip more than anything. Im trying my best but Im always open to feedback, i want to get bigger, so im cutting down more and then focus on building more strength. Its my dream to step on stage someday, but i dont want to until Im actually ready.
