Background

I started weightlifting during wrestling season to improve my strength while staying in the 165 weight class. Doing a one hour workout 5 days a week along with 2 and a half hours of wrestling practice every day was enough to rip me down to 160, with 5% bf. I liked how I looked, but there were guys a lot stronger than me, and I didn't like it. So after wrestling I started going to websites like Teenbodybuilding.com, and I bought Arnold's New guide to modern bodybuilding. I started working with low reps, trying to increase my strength. It worked. I went from 160 all the way to 184 in a few months, though my bf rose to about 10%, I was actually stronger for my bodyweight. I got hooked and the rest is history. Updated stat: Bench Max is 315
