Aside from being a strength athlete, have you trained for any time of sport fighting?

It'd be nice if Nintendo would think a little less of money and a little more of consumers and give us a proper Switch VC, rather than releasing everything they should release on that separately...and with limited stock, too.

I think maybe Chrono Trigger wasn't on the SNES Classic Mini because it's already available on the DS, perhaps? Although that would be a pretty poor excuse still if so, because a fair few SNES games are available on the N3DS VC...

How did you gain an interest in being a strength athlete?

So if my actual, real name is "Taro Tanaka", then I have no dignity? XD

are you currently dieting?

lmao ill main doomfist next

"Some weeb sh*t". You're the worst kind of lazy, the kind who has no dignity. XD

Well, I kinda wasn't here from mid-July through to mid-February, so...
/reads back over VMs to remember what we were talking about omg

That's pretty impressive...I always though the VG covers were a lot harder to learn for some reason?
Kinda hoping Nintendo will do the smart thing with the Switch and give us a Gamecube VC with Baten Kaitos on it...too much to hope for, maybe.

I would be very happy with 225/305/315 for five bench/squat/deadlift by May.

LOL omg not much! I stopped lifting in December to prepare for exams. January was trying to get back to my previous PRs. Bench is now 190 for 5, Squats are 270 for 5 but much more confident - I've been doing box squats and speed squats and partial Anderson squats to help my sticking point which is around the half-squat position. The box and speed squats are super helpful, actually, bar speed and confidence rapidly improved just from doing two sets of them the week before. Deadlifts were at 285 for 5 with not-so-good form - my back had some unlocking and pretty significant rounding as the bar left the ground, although bar speed was always good with a rounded back - so I've decided to dial it down to focus on my form. I plan to go on 265 with uncompromising straight-back form all the way and all the way down this Friday. My deadlift training came from Starting Strength which just advocates training deadlift once a week for one set of five, but I think I would benefit from greater volume - 2 sets at the working weight and a back-off set of 225 or so to focus on the form and movement under less pressure.

I train only twice a week now so I have more time for school - squats and bench on one day, and deadlift, overhead press, and some more bench volume two days later. I also incorporate assistance exercises (squat variations, dips, round-back straight-leg deadlift for spinal erectors, back extensions) on the second day since I have four days of break until my next training day and I would rather all that volume occur after deadlifts.

central florida. what part of florida are you going to?

Nope!

Awesome, I'm happy for you dude

Too much to mention here. Still lifting?
