thank you
I am 44 years old
I have been squatting and deadlifting for about 18 months following Rippetoe's Starting Strength... as best I can
In May I was up to Squat 285 x5 x 3 ; Dead 365 x 4
I twisted my hip stepping out of amusement park bumper car in June so I have, taken several weeks off this summer, deloaded the weight over the summer and went to a 2 day split / reverse pyramid after a few weeks off (similar to jp.rippedbody.com); using reverse pyramid once a week helped me learn to breath better on high reps but now that kids back in school and easier to follow routine I am restarting Starting Strength three times a week -- slightly modified to compliment physical therapy for many upper body injuries
more importantly, my diet is very low carb and high fat since November 2011 (Primal, Nutritional Ketosis, Intermittent Fasting)
I usually fast 12 - 24 hr prior to lifting, then take 25gram protein shake prior to lifting
my goal is to get strong and lose fat
in 2010 and 2011 I was well over 320 pounds
I lost 120 pounds initially (14 inches off jeans size)
With squats and deadlifts I have gained 20 pounds of mass and continue to decrease clothing sizes
both my shoulder have torn rotator cuffs; on shoulder is chronically dislocated; had bicep tendon rupture repair in Feb 2013 so my upper body lifting is high rep, light weight, slow negatives; developed by expert physical therapists
I feel half my age and keep feeling better - I sleep great - great mental focus - more info on my blog: ketones.jlovely.com
