New powerlifter on the block

[plhorse]

I began lifting about 5 years ago, and competing in the last two. For me, this is a lifelong journey that I hope won't end until I'm dead haha. Next year, I am confident that I will start winning competitions.

I found this site while looking for lifting/bodybuilding forums in tapatalk. I'm not ashamed to say I'm interested in learning about certain chemicals, and perhaps one day I'll partake. The allure of pushing my body in both size and strength above and beyond its natural boundaries is very exciting!

welcome to MC brutha! I first started out competing in Powerlifting, AAU i believe it was back then and I think NPC might have been a federation , but im going back 20 years lmao, Powerlifting meets were a fucking blast! But then i got into bodybuilding and then competitive bodybuilding, so the bodybuilding bug might still come bite ya at some point! lol

how old are you?

I'm 34! I originally began bodybuilding, actually. But to be honest, I just don't have the discipline to get incredibly ripped for the stage. At least in powerlifting, they don't care how you look as long as you can heft massive amounts of weight, haha.
