Do you guys even lift?

[partounian]

Serious question, I was just wondering the amount of people in FRC that do any kind of weightlifting. I personally concentrate on powerlifting. Do you guys lift recreationally, powerlift, do olympic weightlifting, strongman, physique, bodybuild?

Do 12 oz curls qualify
If not, then no.

closer to 145 lbs with bumpers & batteries, don't shortchange yourself.

I know quite a few mentors who do. I just started getting into it over the summer. A lot of fun and a great way to de-stress.

Not lifting per se, but I run and do CrossFit/TRX.

I lift in the (rugby) offseason, but I'm more interested in mobility and endurance than raw power.

I have recently started weightlifting. Don't have super high weights yet. Deadlift: 3x5 185, bench 3x5 115, Squat 5x5 150, seated Squat press 5 reps at 560

That's pretty good! Are you on a specific program?

That's awesome and still counts as lifting!

i lift on a regular basis. a strong mind and strong body are key to a good day! I make sure to get as much use out of the half a million dollar weight complex my school has.

I am a competitive cyclist (road and cyclocross) and part of my training is weight lifting. Given, cyclists aren't "built" in the sense of bulk, I do a lot of endurance stuff and squats.
