A little less than 2 weeks ago I did my first ever rep of 300 lb bench press. The same week I increased my single-rep squat max to 420 lbs. The numbers have me pumped, but recently I have been concerned with my size. I don't feel like I look like someone who should be able to do that much weight, so I've provided some stats and a pic (more to come later if needed). Maybe you guys can help me out.
18 years old
just a hair under 6'3"
184 lbs
not sure about my BF%, I'll let you all make a guess at that
been training on and off for 2 years, pretty steady for the last 6 months
diet: I'm a poor college student, so I basically eat whatever is available to me. I try to keep my calories to a minimum of 3000 per day, and I have some protein to make sure I get at least 180g per day, but that's the best I can do without much money. (Luckily the semester is over this week, and I'll be eating better for at least a month while I'm at home.)
gear: I have never taken any steroids.
Also, you can tell my forearms are laughably undersized. Any advice on specific workouts that can help with size, despite my poor diet?
(Well, shit, its telling my uploads are failing. Give me a minute, I will try to get pics up.)
