don't worry man. i graduated high school weighing 155 at 6'3". Now, i'm around 230 at the same height. I know it's hard to bulk throughout high school at that age because your metabolism is so high. I actually gained all my weight AFTER i got out of high school and was able to eat more frequently between classes in college and such.

I hope so Alcoholiday... Id like to put on a lot more mass... get up to 230-250
and thanks for stopping by lance
you will. A lot of people i know were the same way. skinny in high school, and then their metabolism slows down, or they stop doing as much activity, and they're able to put on weight a lot better.

yeah I was that kid. . . ate like complete shit in high school and still weighed like 140. my metabolism must still be pretty damn high because I'm still at 165-170 right now.
I think I need to go eat.
I've been checking out your training log and its impressive man, you're one strong dude. Thanks for checking mine out.
Enjoy your high metabolism while you can. You'll spend the SECOND half of your life complaining about how your metabolism sucks and you can't even LOOK at a slice of chocolate cake without putting on a pound of fat.
Deadlifts were going well and 415 came up so easy I got ahead of myself and jumped to 465. Looking back i should have taken a smaller step. I got 465 off the ground which is usually enough for me to finish the pull, but the struggle to get it of the ground was to much. By the time i attempted 445 i was beat and couldn't even budge it. I'm one good day away from pulling 465... I want to hit 485 by November

Excellent job on the deads. I can relate. My biggest probelm is the initial pull. If I can get it off the floor, I can usually finish. It has to be frustrating to get it moving and not be able to complete the lift. But, I have a feeling we will be seeing that 485 soon.

Mahler after further review... i got the right side about 3 inches off the ground but the left side stayed pinned down... so I am right there. I CAN FEEL IT. I WILL GET IT!!!
Julie... I wrestle and play lacrosse.
I will be concentrating on my deads alternating my main exercise between deadlift singles, deadlift from deficit, and low box squats. Ill also be doing a lot of lower back work because that is defiantly my weak point
If i were you, i would not pull as much. Start focusing on bringing up your squat. It looks like your front squat is 275, and your back squat is 265? I would bet you everything i had that if you're weak off the floor, and pull conventional, if you get these squats to over 300+ apiece, and pull something like once every other week (maybe for 3s or a top set of 5), you will pull 475+.
I used to do deficit pulls, and they worked ok, but the problem is that it puts you in a real awkward position, and you never are really in that position when you pull off the floor. Bringing up my squat has helped my pull more than anything else.
Just my 2 cents.

I was planing on deadlifting every other week and squating every week...
I front squat 275 and back squat around 245 (havnt squatted heavy in a while)

Great lifts! How much do you weigh? I don't remember you being really really big. That's some friggin crazy weight your pulling. Awesome.
