Started lifting about 4 years ago at 19 years old, just turned 23 now.

Started out bodybuilding because I wanted to compete but my genetics just aren't there for me to try and compete and for it to completely take over my life. Fortunately I am naturally quite strong, also tall so I hold bodyweight easy, and within the last 6 months I've moved over to powerlifting.

The diet is more enjoyable as I'll be competing in the top weight class due to height so I need to get to 22.5 stone/313 sustainable to start a competition prep. I am still growing so this high rep grows you nonsense isn't accurate for everybody.

I play American football as well (I'm english) which has really increased my flexibility, endurance and overall strength in my lower half however I play D Line so I'm usually banged up after a game which affects my training.

I'm fortunate enough to train with some strong ass guys, Ben Brunning (Wales strongest man) and a few other local strongmen who compete regionally not nationally.

Do you prefer the BB training or PL?
Bodybuilding for me is way more enjoyable.

I used the ultra a few months back, gave me energy whilst I was at work but I still nailed pre workouts at the gym so not sure of the effect they had. Used them on a cut with a healthy diet and dropped 7lbs of fat.
