I'm just not dropping weight at all lately! I have a broad build and have always had a larger upper body. Seems like a disadvantage, and I'm wondering if 165 is even going to be possible.
Big up top, toothpick legs that dont put out any power at all. Im 180, 155 when I graduated high school. When the road goes up, I come off the back. My knees are screaming for a cool down. There are guys in my group that have legs my size and they are 135 to 140 so I am at a hug power to weight disadvantage. Only option is for me to get it back to 150.
