  1. I've thought about changing gym but the place I'm going to know is a university gym, which is ridiculously cheap. However! I have been hassling the gym manager about the rack and I think I might’ve convinced the guy, so I’ll hang around a bit longer. Untill then I'll try frontsquatting instead
  2. Thanks for all the kind replies It's really motivational with comments like these! I'm beginning to feel confident with the different techniques and right now I'm adding min. 2.5kg on every workout, which is proving a bit difficult on my squats. The reason for this is that my "gym" has no squat rack, only a stupid smith machine, thus forcing me to power clean+overhead pressing the weight onto my back.
  3. I've already had my first victory in the gym I was doing the ol' deadlift (70kg) and was breaking a bit of a sweat. So my carni friend, who's your typical capt. upper-body, walks over and starts making fun (all in good fun though) So i ask him to join me.. And wouldn't you know it, he collapsed before making a single one
  4. Haha! I might not be as friendly as him but I'm definitely just as pale
  5. Body info: Age: 25 Height: 187 cm Weight: 83 kg So! i just started working out and i'm following the Stronglifts 5x5 program. I've spent 1½ week going really light to focus on technique/form and another week going a bit heavyer. Current lifting stats - Squat 47,5kg - Overhead Press 32,5kg - Deadlift 70kg - Bench press 37,5kg The photos are from November 23. 2008 So this is me.. http://i399.photobucket.com/albums/pp76/CasperXVX/mig6.jpg You know you're a rookie when your chin is more flexed than your arms http://i399.photobucket.com/albums/pp76/CasperXVX/mig4.jpg And the ol' back http://i399.photobucket.com/albums/pp76/CasperXVX/mig5.jpg
  6. Hi everyone! Been lurking around these boards for a while now and finally mustered up the courage to introduce myself, haha. A few personal facts: My name is Casper and I'm 25 years old. I live in Meatland also known by some as Denmark. I've been vegan for some 6 years now and I'm taking a BA in teaching at a university here in DK.. bump.. bump.. Oh and I'm way into hardcore (No... not that kind) I spend a great deal of time going to concerts and setting up concerts.. A few BB facts: I'm a complete and utter newb at lifting anything - the only time I've ever done any heavy lifting was when i worked at a steel plant. However! I just recently started lifting with two of my carni friends, who ofc made all the usual comments about how only girls don't eat meat ect. ect. Therefore I have made it my mission to destroy them and make a complete mockery out of em' both So that's about it.. I'm looking foward to being a part of this community, and hopefully make a friend or two
