Excerpt: Ladies we need a thread where we can brag about our most recent fitness related personal record. Years ago we had something like this, and it was really nice to have sort of a PR shout box. Any milestone that marks your personal best needs to be bragged upon right here. Just achieved a lean body weight you've been working towards for ages, or hit a record low bf level, made a record lift, managed to stay on a super clean diet for x months, whatever.

Bench is finally up to 120.
Comp 2 weeks from today...hoping to smack another 5 lbs on there by then
Hey I guess I have one come to think of it. Today I did 9 chins with a 8.8lb plate attached to my waist.
This is my first post here, but have been lurking for almost a year, so please be kind.I love power lifting so do not have the low body fat most of you girls have, but am working towards it slowly.
I hit my personal best on bench yesterday at 2 sets of 245lbs raw for three reps. My goal is 250lbs raw so I am almost there. My best deadlift is 225lbs and my best squat is 245lbs. My goal is to be the first female at my gym to make the 1000 pound club with the men and I have just about a year to get it done before we move back to the States. Wish me luck!!

You are I believe officially the strongest woman who has ever posted in the Women's forum. Do you mind disclosing your bodyweight?

you're amazing!!!
welcome
Willow... I don't mind at all. I am 5' 1" and 160 lbs. Alot of that is muscle though my body fat is higher than I want, but it is a trade off!
Holy moly!!! Congrats on the PB... That is awesome!!!! Go girl
That's a PL'er body alright.Willow... I don't mind at all. I am 5' 1" and 160 lbs. A lot of that is muscle though my body fat is higher than I want, but it is a trade off!
I'd love it if you stick around and contribute. No doubt there's a lot we could learn from you.
Willow.... I plan on sticking around. I want to start competing in power lifting when I get back to the States in a year. I would try to compete here, but do not know where to start and my German is little at best!
Hi peili! Welcome! Welcome! Those are some numbers to be proud of! Amazing strength girl! I admire that!!!
