What are your goals?

[Hot_Tub_SATAN]

My goal is to be that TITAN that frightens 800 lb gorilla mothers into clutching their children in fear as I walk by their cage at the zoo. My goal is to be the man who scrams so loud as I press bench five-hundred pounds, pregnant women six blocks away are frightened into premature labor. My goal destroy every challenge that faces me, and anything less is failure.

I'm currently 5'10 and weigh roughly 180 with approx 10.5% BF.
I'm totally natural... although the dark side has almost pulled me in a couple times and is always sitting in the back of my mind.
I have a few problems for instance,
my rotator cuffs are quite irritable , and I had been making great progress healing them until 2 weeks ago I had a few drinks and thought arm wrestling was a good idea. So they are resting around 85% right now.. they've already healed significantly, but Im guessing a few more weeks before they feel really good again.

Short Term Goals (before september)
-Have body fat down to roughly 8%.
-Stregthen rotator cuffs so that I don't have any pain
-Learn to sleep on my back
-Dead Lift 300 x 5

1 year goals (July 2003)
Weigh 185 with less than 10% BF
Deadlift 400+
Squat 400+
Dumbell press 110's without shoulder pain
17" Arms

2 year goals (July 2004)
190lbs+ with less than 10% BF
18" arms+
Be injury free


I think my goals are pretty reasonable, so they shouldn't be too hard to achieve naturally...
Thanks
Ryan

I write down everything I do in the gym, reps sets and weight, so my goal is to get more reps at the same weight with as perfect form as possible next week and keep going until I can up the weight as a result of hitting my target reps.

I dont have any longterm goals, I prefer to concentrate on smaller ones, i.e weekly goals at the moment as I am still learning how different variables effect my progress.

When I leave the gym I have to feel that I have given my all and I could not give anymore, if I dont feel like that then I always feel guilty that it was an opportunity missed to make progress.

I'm sure my goals are slightly different than many of those already posted, but here goes.. (these are both running goals)

To fit snugly in a medium shirt. I like my shirts tight, but damned if anyone makes anything in size smalls. Shopping is a complete pain in the ass for me.

To look good to myself. This means putting on muscle everywhere, and having some definition. I have nobody else to please, and I'd rather not want to sob when I look in the mirror.

Past that, I don't have any weight goals or anything. The fact that I'm lifting at all, and slowly adding weights to my lifts is enough for me. It has nothing to do with my three-lift total being 355. Really.

i want arms as big as legs and legs as big as people.

I'm at 5'5 172 13% right now. Unfortunately, I'm coming off a shoulder injury that I got snowboarding and finishing up some rehab. I bet my legs are slightly stronger, and my upper body presses are at about 80-85% full strength.

Bench: 1RM 300
Leg Press: 8x710
DB Shoulder Press: 7x100 (This was my fav. exercise, and my best, so I like to include it)
Deadlift: Don't do them anymore

I'm kind of at a point where I'm more concerned with size than strength.

5'5 (I don't think I'm going to grow anymore) 185 11%BF.

Bench: 1RM at 315, eventually 8x315.
Squat: 8x405
DB Shoulder Press: 8x100

I'll be able to hit my goals within a year if I continue to train hard, and if my shoulder comes back 95-100%.

my main goal, by june, is to squat 300x20. currently at 240x20 (although 250x20 WILL go down this saturday).

right now i'm 200lb. and i'm trying to maintain that(slowly lean out) for 5-6 months before making the jump to 230 or so by the fall/early winter.
