Another new guy

[Adam Witzel]

hey...just thought I'd take a moment to introduce myself.

I've been interested in strongman for quite some time, but only really started training for it about 5 months ago...followed by a wrist injury 3 months ago which put me out of commission for about 2 months. I've been lurking around here for a few months, but finally decided to sign up. I've already learned alot, but hope to learn much more from everyone.

Some of my ever improving(yet still weak) stats are as follows, for anyone interested:

Squat - 285x4
Deadlift - 410
axle deadlift (2.2" dia. bar) - 335
Powerclean - 185
push press - 175

Once again, I am really looking forward to spending some time here:D

Welcome aboard adam. What are your stats?

[Grant Buhr]

Welcome, Adam.

[Adam Witzel]

Welcome aboard adam. What are your stats?

19 years old, 6', 210-215lbs. I've been weight training on and off for years, but mostly just for health reasons, as I use to be around 230lbs with 30+% bodyfat, and just felt horrible. So it started off as a vanity thing, but has evolved into a personal pursuit to see how strong I can become:d.....or something like that anyways.

I haven't competed yet....I was hoping to enter a local contest in august, but I don't think i'll be ready due to a wrist injury that put me out for a while....I couldn't even squat it hurt so badly. if I think I can still be ready, I'll be competing this summer. If not, I'll just have to get that much better for next year.

thanks for the welcome everyone!
