Training History: 8 years, never taken really more than month off in that course of time

Challenges: the addiction to lifting, which can be good but can also be detrimental...but the biggest thing is getting complacent, always know that someone is nippin at your heels

[Fitness Nut]

Age: 25
Goals: Get bigger, stronger, and stay healthy.
Training: Been training for almost 2 years now. Lifted a lot before that, but had no clue what I was doing.
Problems: I'm married, 3 kids, full time work, and my wife works full time and just finished school full time. Finding time to hit the gym and cook is definately a challenge.

 

[suckamc44]

Age: 23
Goals: Get to 210-215lbs range(currently 230, was 260), bench 400, squat 600, dead 600(current PRs 365 bench, ~500 squat, ~500 dead). I'm not really in hurry to get the lifting goals, because I'm focusing on getting down to my goal weight first.
Training: 8 years, football,wrestling and track in high school, so for the first 3 years training was focused on improving performance in those sports. Since then it's been on and off, but mostly training for strength
Problems: School+Work=No Time to cook for myself(which is why I need to lose weight)/a lot of skipped workouts. Formerly, I used to do a LOT of snowboarding and I ended up hurting myself fairly often, which hasn't helped my consistency. I'm just now getting better from a back/hip injury I suffered last march. Between that and losing 30 lbs, my squat and dead have suffered pretty bad.

 

[Scotsman]

Age: 29
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 308lbs
Been training off and on for 16yrs seriously training for 10 and pure strength training for 5.

My goal is to eventually win the IFSA strongman championships.

Biggest obstacle is not being able to keep a regular training schedule due to travelling for work.

Cheers,
Scotsman

Your goals: goals are dependant on my back injury (bulging L5-S1) when everything is fine, I train to be a powerlifter with the goal of getting a qualifying WPO (world powerlifting organization) in the 220 (that would require a 2051 total). when my back is flared up, well, I just train the best that I can.
How long have you been weight training? 10 years
What is the biggest problem(s) you've had achieving your goals? biggest problem is my back injury. when it is flared up, it cripples me.
