Soul Legacy Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Does anyone here do Weightlifting?, if so, how long, what do think about it and your advice to others. I weightlift and have done it for 2 years, i think its good, you can feel your muscles growing afterwards (Well, to me anyway), and sorry, no advice except, try it.

Enrise Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Let's say it's when your crotch starts to hurt really badly after trying to lift something wrong. Always life with the legs, not the back, or a hernia is coming to your crotch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ragnarok1945 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I used to, but only on the squat. For those who don't know what that is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squat_(exercise) I put the weight onto my shoulders and lifted it up by straightening my legs. Was able to lift 355 pounds, which by then I weighed only 140, so 2.5 times my body weight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit when I did it I nearly ended up breaking my thighs in the process[/quote'] Lol its what I use to leg lift. I don't have one of those heaps of metal, that pros have, so I have to use what I can get my hands on. Though the YMCA does have a decent, simple but effective sitting leg lift.

ragnarok1945 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Yeah I only used the school's gym for it, and I only did it for PE because our coach said he'd give 10 points extra credits for anyone who can lift all 355 pounds and lift it 50 times without stopping.

End Of The Abyss Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I can bench around 80 lbs. On hand weights, the heaviest I have is around 50 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsterikcAde Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I lift weights also, I've been doing it ever since I had weight training when I was a sophomore, I haven't been working out for a month now, but when I hit the bench, I'm always strong at that. My bench max up to date is about 290 or something, I'm not sure...but sometimes I get lazy and don't workout as much. Tips and Advice: If it's your first time in weightlifting, don't be all cheesy and tough by lifting 100 lbs or 200 lbs that will only slow down your muscle development, if it's your first time go light then when you're strong enough you can go ahead and attempt a heavyweight, going slow and easy actually builds muscle. And oh yeah, don't be a dumb ass and take steroids, it's not worth it! Just believe in yourself if you want to lift a very heavyweight, works for me! ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, I usually just practice with 12 pound dumbells, and rarely ever bench (when I was 14, I had NO strength in my arms, could barely bench the 45 pound bar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
