Hi I'm Cheethers and I'm new here. I've been training (predominantly powerlifting style) seriously for about 3 years. I don't count messing about for a couple of years before that as I had no aims or programming.
I competed a few times but never placed in PL comps but really enjoyed them. That said, I lost the bug for it a year or so ago and moved to bodybuilding. Whilst I enjoyed it I didn't get the same buzz as I did for powerlifting so I've found a routine I can do that combines the two.
I am currently 5ft10in and 200lb with high bodyfat. I need to lose a good 20lb to get down to a respectable bodyfat percentage then I'll reassess goals from there.
Training is 4 sessions a week lasting 4 weeks which includes a deload in week 4 before starting again.
Below is my session today which is workout 2 of week 1.
First deadlift session in nearly 3 months. Was super super excited for it. Turns out I did pretty good at it too.....

Still a way off my 200kg 1rm but I'll get it again soon, I'm sure of it. The aim in the long run is a 500lb deadlift (227kg), 200kg squat and 120kg bench. Current best lifts are 200,175,115.
