Hey guys I weightlift and just wanted to see if any other people do this too. Big strong arms produce HUGE sleep times! :wink:

Um I think my DV888 was pretty heavy once I stacked it. But I did like tons of reps (in between combos). I guess I could call myself a little over average :wink:

Bro, do you even lift?

I shoot archery so it’s kinda similar. I would like to figure out how much I can bench but my school doesn’t have a weight room and I don’t have any at home.

I lift about 4 times a week. I use small weights and just do a lot of reps. I need to get some heavier weights soon.

I do kendama for cardio and lower body.

I have only been doing this routine for a month or 2, but I have already lost weight and gained some muscle. Being a stocky guy, I put on muscle very easily.

I use a 4 day a week split, cardio 2 days. Its part of my job to be fit, but only to a certain extent. I really only need to be able to run, but I like weight training better. If I didn’t have to be able to run, I would bulk up more, but I already sit at a pretty muscled out 200 lb., and my max weight for my height is 206.

I’m not big on lifting weights, but I do p90x which does involve some weight training. But it’s mostly bodyweight stuff/cardio. I’m actually going later today to interview for a job as a fitness instructor.

I mainly do it for football, but I also like to be in the weight room whenever I have time. About 4 times a week, 90 mins or so each day.
