My lifts are increasing but my weight isn’t. My eating habits are not as good as they should be. The veggie thing is pretty hard to pull off. I think I’m going to make tuna in a can my bread and butter. Also I do a lot of cardio in my martial arts class so that can’t be helping either. But I’m going to do it no matter what it takes.

Shlt I just weight myself at the gym I’m 163 on an empty stomach too. Gaining isn’t that hard at all lift more eat more equals more weight. I slacked a little but now I have motivation to continue the pressure.

your leg press going all the way down? I'm surprised at 410 (5 plates / side??) for 6 yet a 170 lb squat, and a 100 lb deadlift.

Looks to me like your orders of business are:

a) throw weight on the deadlift bar!!!

b) go all the way down on the leg press!

yah that's what im going to do, put more weight on my deadlifts i kept it down cause hurt my back a while back but now everything is good. Sometimes i cheat on leg press and not go all the way but mostly i do.
