Just curious - you've been doing this for a little over 3 months now. How have your gains in terms of size been? Looks like most of your lifts have gone up, but deads not at all?

First of all, i didn't want to restart deadlifting at my max right-away...


As far as my gains are concerned... i'm still around 180lbs but with less bodyfat... maybe it's time I go to get all of my stats taken (bodyfat%..size.......)
