Just reached a goal youve been aiming for for months? Just squatted 3pl8 for the first time? Just got laid because of gains?
ITT talk about your milestones because everyone wants to talk about their achievements.
I just benched 1pl8 for 5x5 for the first time today. Needed spotter help on the last 2 reps but otherwise it went well. I'm fucking thrilled, because I started off in August struggling with the goddamn bar. Never imagined i would make it this far before 2016
next goal is 2pl8
I reached 2 plate squat this week. I think I'm gonna stay on it until I can do 8 reps with it and then I'll start adding again.
Started with 155 bench finally got to 2 pl8. Was a scrawny distance runner in HS.

Holy shit brah, starting at 155 bench you must've at least been one of the stronger HS xc runners.
I was also a hungry skelly xc runner and I started with the bar.
Anyways though, Nice progress with 2pl8. 3pl8 next brah?
How much is 1 pl8? 20kg/ 45 pounds ?
Does it mean that 80 kgs bench = 2pl8s ?

I was a bigger runner. 6ft 155. Mile was 4:42 5k 17:30. Even in wrestling I was weak, but I was cut like a mother fucker.

Yes sir

1pl8 means a 20kg/45lb plate on each side of the bar. 2pl8 bench would be 100kg/225lbs

Good job
But I hate you.
I can squat 2pl8 and bench 1pl8 now. Am I getting close to getting a bf yet?
Just hit 3pl8 on the squat
Trying to get 2pl8 on the bench before the new year

No, the guys that go to your gym aren't going to even say anything to you because you squat 2pl8 and that means your ass is probably really nice.
Having a nice body just makes you more unapproachable than you already are just by being a young female.

Why is it suffering? What are you missing out on?
I did three sets of 12 good form pull-ups today (dead hang, two seconds up, 1 second hold, two seconds down.)
Once I reach 20, I can start progressing towards one-armed pull-ups! Right now, it's time for accessory curls!

Pics?
Just hit lmao2plaet!!!1! squat, continuing in stride towards 3. Hoping to hit 300x5 dl before the new year, at 285 now. All in all its been a good year for lifting.
