Wow. Lol we had our own weight room dude. Problem is coach wasn't as involved as he should have been. I just can't put on weight I've tried.

You are contradicting yourself. Earlier in the thread you said you never seriously got into weightlifting. So did you try or just half try?

Okay. So I've had weight lifting classes before. I did not put full effort into them. I half tried and didn't want to eat healthier on top of it.

How hard? That's a relative term. When I lifted in college, I generally lifted 1-1.3 hours per session. And I wasn't one of those dudes just sitting around talking. In all, I probably got in about 25 sets of whatever I was doing that day, on average.
 
I mean look at Hayward. The dude had probably been lifting since he was varsity. He didn't really put on substantial gains til he was 23/24. Weightlifting takes time, especially when you are an active athlete in the process and not just focusing on bulking for the sake of bulking.

LOL. Not D1. I never put enough into XC or track sadly. I'd lie and simply take waaaaaaay too many days off. I think I could've been a good, maybe even really good, D1 5,000 or 10,000 meter runner though.

Me too. Basically. I didn't burn out. I'd just get hurt or injured and set myself back so far for so long that I had to stop working out for a fairly long time. And once I had, that drive was lost.

This happens to me every time I get going good on a workout routine.

I will be doing great and going to the gym for 2 hours each day, 5 or 6 days a week.
Then my forearm or shoulder starts hurting to the point that I can't even do anything. I have to stop for months to get rid of the pain.

God damn that's skinny dude. But you're fairly young still, right?

I graduated high school at about 6'1", 155. I drank a ton in college but was always active, and was 6'2", 163ish when I ran XC my junior year. By the time I graduated, I was 6'2", 183ish, but far more explosive than I'd ever been, dunking, running around a high 4.4's 40. I just always ate alot, was active in sports, and lifted to help fill my body out.

Claiming a 4.4 is like standard issue "back in my day I could..." Old man boasting talk.

I was at 208 before the baby was born.
Lost 8 lbs simply by not eating out as much. (Trying to save money now that my wife isn't working)

Pretty sure I don't have it but if I can find the VHS tape of me playing qb and taking off for a 55 yard td, I'll convert it and upload it. ****'s legit.

I'm in my mid-30s. I just want to be healthy and look good naked. Past glory doesn't matter.
