The real deal GHR.

I think you would say that I used to be a powerlifter. Now I am a raw powerlifter/bench presser/non competing bodybuilder. Basically I want to be huge and strong. I don't really care about fitting into a weight class. At the moment I would be in the 110 kg class with room to grow into the class. The only powerlifting thoughts I have are for raw (as in no supportive equipment).

No idea mate but it's fair to say I am not lean. :pfft: After the Eastside raw comp on 28 November I will probably have a bit of a think about where I am headed. I would like to "clean things up a bit" and get a bit closer to being in shape (whatever that means!).

If I ever did go on stage in my undies, I wouldn't want to be one of those guys who faded away and entered a shrinking contest. To me bodybuilding is about being huge. In shape but huge.

So mate it's a work in progress. As I said I want to big strong and huge and this keeps my options open.

Nothing too special mate. We are 24 hours to members who have their own keys. But I am there from about 4 pm to 7 pm week days and 9 am to 12 pm on the weekends. I usually train at 4 ish on the week days and 10 am on Saturday.

Pop down bro. My number is 021 339 711. Drop me a txt and we can sort out a time.

My identity crisis runs very deep. Like Arnold said regarding Franco "he needs all of the help he can get"!

Pics are not on the radar, Rosie. I have too much respect for this forum. I do however have a plan to have video logs for me and young Fry up from next week.

Hey "Doc" great work there, more importantly I am really looking forward to you bringing out those abbs in 12 weeks. You must have a well developed core from all that heavy lifting you do. Can't wait bro!

You are funny bro. The 12 week challenge has been issued has it? And what is your challenge Freek? Shoulders, chest, arms, lats, nails?
