I'm not nearly as strong as I used to be (in college) in certain areas. My biceps can only lift about 2/3 of what I used to, and the same goes for my legs and abs. Everything else seems to be about on par strength wise compared to when I was my strongest. I can bench press 225lbs about 6 times, squat 275lbs at least 12 times, and leg press 800-900lbs about 10 times
. I'm not lifting as heavy as I used to for fear of injuring something.
Little update, after losing all the weight I described by January, I had a 2 month "slacking period" in the eating, sleeping and exercise dept during April and May due to working insane hours (80-90 per week). I probably put back on about 7-8lbs, but have since lost most of it in June by getting back in the gym, eating healthier again and getting more sleep. Right now I'm at about 157lbs, and trying to get back to where I was in January. It just amazes me how quickly the weight gets back on after just one month off of my diet/exercise routine.
