And am looking to do 300 once by the summer. I think it's easily doable. What do you think?
no doubt it is obtainable.. you want to add 50lbs on your bench by summer? I think you can for sure if you work hard.

yup i do believe it's obtainable since around 6 months ago i barelly did 200 a couple of times

That's really good, Kaliber. How tall are you and what weight are you at right now? 300 isn't THAT far above 250. You could probably get 260 or a bit more if you can do 250 for 2.

Ah, ok. You'll definitely get it eventually, but make sure you don't go heavy all the time or you'll burn out.

Ah, ok. You'll definitely get it eventually, but make sure you don't go heavy all the time or you'll burn out.
Well i usually do a sets of 8 reps at 205lbs
Plus usually 3 different sets of different chest excercises
I do have to say i don't do decline much, i mostly do regular ones and some incline but close to none decline? Should i do more decline?
Buddy Rydell
01-01-2008, 07:10 PM
I wouldn't do a lot of decline, but it's a good idea to do a little just to strengthen those muscles. It's an exercise where you can do a lot of weight easily, so I wouldn't overdo it.

Do heavy close girp bench presses to build your tricep strength....Nothing gonna be worse than having to have your spotter lift 300 the last 2 inches because your tris arent strong enough to finish the rep

:lol: I will speaking of people giving spots..last time i was the gym not too many people were there and i was doing cardio when this pretty big arabic guy was benching and he was gonna do 260 i think so he needs a spot so he gets this little mentally challanged fellow who was hanging around lifting 5 pound weights...i dont' wanna make fun of mentally challanged or anything but how stupid of that guy to put your life in the hands of a mentally challanged fellow!

kaliber is a powerful machine :clap:
if you get 250 twice now.. everytime.. you might get 300 right now on a good day. just keep at it, I'd add a 2 1/2 on each side of what you do for reps..

How many times a week do you train bench-press? I'd like to know since I have been working out for quite a while but I get results very slowly and t me getting 50 lbs more before summer sounds just unbelievable

i do chest once a week..sometimes two but that's very rare
The day i do chest i do at least 4-5 different chest excercies..it takes me roughly hour hour and half...to me key is really pushing it so my chest kills after...and i think it's good to keep trying to do more weight each week..even if you can't do the full 8 reps for example do 4 or something with more weight just to get the body used to heavier weight

So do you do five exercises, all 3x8 reps or something like that?
If so, I think that pretty much vīcovers it if that is what brings you results. I don't train my chest nearly as much at one time, I have thought that is overtraining

well even 4x8 ya and i think overtraining would be if i did chest again the next day or day after that but since i rest it for the rest of the week then i don't think it's overtraining at all..

I rarely use heavy weight in this, but I hopped on the bench yesterday and was repping with 225. The problem with bench press is that you can use so much more weight than any other exercise except squats and deadlifts. Thus there is the possibility of more injury. I actually felt a twinge in my shoulder, but it goes away as soon as I start doing pushups.
I'm not gonna tackle heavy benches until I can do 25 consecutive pushups with good speed. That way I'll know my shoulder is stable enough to handle the really heavy stuff!
how many pushups are you at Buddy?

I'm doing the same thing with pushups that I do with chinups, which means 7 consecutive pushups at 6-7 times a day. I could do more, but I want to develop it gradually so that it is an everyday thing.
cool Buddy..
I do them as well.. I do a min of 100 pushups everyday.. which is really just 5 sets of 20 or I'll do 4 of 25
I want to get 100 straight, last I tryed I got 82

You take thousands of steps everyday. Doesn't that interfere with your leg workout? Of course not, your body has gotten used to it over a period of time. Same goes for every other exercise, but you have to get the muscles accustomed to it.

Surprised you didn't say you breathe don't you :rolleyes:
as Buddy knows I'm all about "grease the groove"
do something enough (without going to failure) and your body adapts.. I do this with Chinups, pushups, handstands, handstand pushups, hindu squats, and even running..
my running every day, 7 days a week but only a mile.. I'm really sold on this., the distance is not much but I run it fast, it's getting easier and easier.. it is now just part of my daily routine and my body is adapting
for "ME" this type of exercise is more practical and 'real world' than having wacked ass splits and gym routines that are all muscle specific and complicated, calisthenics really make you practically strong, handling your own bodyweight easily is very practical. I've known guys that are strong as hell in the weight room but can do chinups or pushups good.. I hope these guys never fall and need to pull themselves up to save their lives.. in the real world you need to move around in your own body all the time, to me it makes sense to do so effectivly and easily
I used to be a gym rat and a trainer.. and I realized that the only time I really needed or DID 500lb squats was in the gym. It is much more pracitical to be able to handle your own weight a lot and quickly IMO

who me?
to me my mile a day thing is just as much about the "every day" thing as it is the "mile"
doing things everyday is good for you, especially a healthy habbit..
the grease the groove theory is do it all the time, very often..
1 mile a day is better than 1 mle every other day "IMO"
the distance is so short that the body can handle this as a daily task.. for me, it's easier to do something every day than it is every other.. it's just routine, they say after doing somthing every day for like 30 days, it becomes routine and it is just as easy or easier to do it than it is to not.

Every other day gets easier and easier, you have a better chance of getting burned out everyday because there will be more times you will feel like skipping opposed to every other, simple math :dunno: I bet you couldn't measurably prove it is better every day vs. three times a week :nono:

You do walk until you can't walk anymore when you're first starting out and developing the leg muscles as a child. And yes, you rest afterwards. I believe it is possible to develop the arms in much the same way. One guy in NY did it and he walked down the Empire State Building stairs on his hands.

You are most certainly are right, I'm not trying to prove that though..

It would be more convincing if you knew how to spell mackerel. I don't mind conceding a point if I'm wrong, and you definitely have a point about the different centre of gravity, but the mass is not a point. The mass comes as a side effect of using the legs so much. You doubt it, then check out someone's legs who can't walk. Toothpicks.

If it an intense workout, then yes they need to heal. If it is just regular calisthenics, then they are low-impact and they don't strain the muscles enough to tear down and require that period of healing. It's like jogging or walking; after awhile, you get used to it and it doesn't tax the muscles that much.

You are pulling out all the stops, spell check and baby legs :laughing: Now go research someone who walks on their hands to see what kind of problems they have :slap: You are bringing up someone with small legs or no legs at all, brilliant!

Dude, I'm just talking about what works and giving anecdotal evidence. You're the one who wants to argue. Whether you want to believe it or not, it's working for me right now. I do chins 5 days a week ad I've never been stronger. Don't take it from me; LOK posted article links that came from MILO, a strength-training magazine. Those guys know more than you or me on the subject. They set work records in it. :dunno:
If you read what I posted, I said if it is an intense workout, then you need to heal. Doing the chinups day in and day out without pushing as hard as I can is making it less intense. I don't need to argue because it's working for me. I do calisthenics everyday, but when I do HEAVY workouts like squatting 405 for reps and deadlifting 300 for 12, then I definitely need to recuperate. That's why I do squats and deadlifts once a week. Same with bench presses. I can bench 300, but I don't do that everyday. I bench heavy once a week, and usually I don't even go heavy.

Like Buddy said, if it is intense, or really if it is heavy weights.. you do need to rest.
I was a certified trainer for years so I do know a thing or two, your muscles have little micro-tears that have to heal but... bodyweight is different... now if you have not done any and you start doing mad pushups.. you'll be in trouble.. but you recover, the body can handle the body's weight IMO... and it's not just "IMO" look at all the armed services.. you think these guys dont know what they are doing? you know what the staple of their workout is?? DAILY running and pushups and other bodyweight stuff.. it's just not such an overload like pushing extra heavy weights in unatural manners...
I agree with you, I would not recommend this type of workout to anyone.. you have to be in shape somewhat first. Just as when I was a trainer at a gym, the NUMBER ONE reason people stop coming quickly is they over do it.. they have been sitting around getting fat and they get in the gym and see what they can bench.:doh: muscles have a hard time with that..
doing pushups daily and gradually increasing them is fine for the body

I guess you don't see the irony in calisthenics in a weight lifting thread as I do. You don't want to lift heavyweights, then don't. I've never been a supporter of heavyweights and I think I even asked why people would want to in this thread. It's dumb for everyday people who are looking to get in shape and lose some weight to lift heavyweights, it's not needed....just like doing chinups and pushups everyday vs. three times a week. But now it's down to five days, so nevermind :dunno: You said everyday, and I took it as that. It's not worth the risk getting burned out, in which you will have a better chance by using simple math. It's like drinking a beer a day because it's supposed to be good for you, but it isn't worth the risk of becoming an alcoholic, get my drift?

I know a thing or two myself as I have been reading about this stuff for 23 years as I am sure you have too given your age. It's a weak argument, so let's get past the flexing stage of who knows more than the other :lol:
You know what I am talking about, you go start doing a bunch of pushups daily, you will never have time to heal.......yes, I heard you say after some time you get used to it, fine.....but you are admitting you are not letting yourself heal at first :dunno: I know plenty of people in the services over the years, and they push you to get your mind right and get you obsessed with what you need to get done. they want you to get past the apin and deal with it. Making them puke is fucking dumb. They do not train any faster than someone who does what they are supposed to do if they take a day of rest at least every third day. They are way too sore, too long because they don't rest, silly....especially when you can get similar results with more rest. They don't train like the way you suggest year round either, which is another point I made, only if it's temporary or training for something. Boxers don't train the way they do in three months all year around either, same with bicycling, marathon runners, NFL, you name it.
Edit: I also see you are saying this is recommended for someone in very good shape, that's a bit different. I still don't see why you guys think this is a good idea. I know you can't make a bet and know for sure, but let's try. I say my workout will last longer than you guys will this year :dunno: :cheer: Let's do this :blobbox: How can we at least try to prove it?
I'm not pushing what I do on anyone Tyler, as I said before, I LIKE doing it every day..
and to be clear, I shouldn't say EVERYDAY really.. I do one day on the weekend as in yesterday, (saturday) I'll do 100 chins maybe some pushups, then today I'll do nothing but my one mile run, then mon-fri I'll do probably around 50 or so chins a day and 100 pushups a day.
the only thing I'm doing 7 days a week is the mile
i wont recommend excatly what I do for anyone, you gotta find what works for you. I wouldn't bet you on who will fail either, for now this has been working great for me and I can see doing it for the long haul, the mile I WILL do everyday for a year no matter what and I cant see changing my 100 chin days either.. but I wish you sucess as well..

Edit: I also see you are saying this is recommended for someone in very good shape, that's a bit different. I still don't see why you guys think this is a good idea. I know you can't make a bet and know for sure, but let's try. I say my workout will last longer than you guys will this year :dunno: :cheer: Let's do this :blobbox: How can we at least try to prove it?
I don't even believe this
I struggle to bench like 70lbs. By struggle i mean i probably can't bench it.

I guess you don't see the irony in calisthenics in a weight lifting thread as I do. You don't want to lift heavyweights, then don't. I've never been a supporter of heavyweights and I think I even asked why people would want to in this thread. It's dumb for everyday people who are looking to get in shape and lose some weight to lift heavyweights, it's not needed....just like doing chinups and pushups everyday vs. three times a week. But now it's down to five days, so nevermind :dunno: You said everyday, and I took it as that. It's not worth the risk getting burned out, in which you will have a better chance by using simple math. It's like drinking a beer a day because it's supposed to be good for you, but it isn't worth the risk of becoming an alcoholic, get my drift?
Irony? Calisthenics are a good warmup for your whole body. Since you want to be warmed up before lifting heavy weights, they seem like a good idea, and they also provide strength-building applications...at least the ones that you haven't previously done on a regular basis (and for me that would be chinups). As for whether I want to lift heavy weights or not, I figure that benching 300, squatting around 500, and deadlifting at least 400 is pretty heavy.
I could do the chinups everyday, and I do usually do one set before hitting the weights because it warms up all the muscles in the back and arms. The alcoholism reference is kinda sketchy at bast, and that's not an insult.
In plain English, if it works and it doesn't hurt you, why not give it a whirl? If you find it beneficial, use it. If not, don't. :dunno:

I know a thing or two myself as I have been reading about this stuff for 23 years as I am sure you have too given your age. It's a weak argument, so let's get past the flexing stage of who knows more than the other :lol:
You know what I am talking about, you go start doing a bunch of pushups daily, you will never have time to heal.......yes, I heard you say after some time you get used to it, fine.....but you are admitting you are not letting yourself heal at first :dunno: I know plenty of people in the services over the years, and they push you to get your mind right and get you obsessed with what you need to get done. they want you to get past the apin and deal with it. Making them puke is fucking dumb. They do not train any faster than someone who does what they are supposed to do if they take a day of rest at least every third day. They are way too sore, too long because they don't rest, silly....especially when you can get similar results with more rest. They don't train like the way you suggest year round either, which is another point I made, only if it's temporary or training for something. Boxers don't train the way they do in three months all year around either, same with bicycling, marathon runners, NFL, you name it.

Define longer in this context. It could be the amount of time you work out, or the number of workouts this year...or something else. Duration isn't as important as say intensity to me. I love a challenge though, so I'll give anything a whirl. The majority of my workouts last less than an hour because I hit the gym on my lunch hour and I have to travel back and forth from the gym to the office, and the travel time varies depending on the traffic.
We could do the ol' three lift total (bench, squat, and deadlift)or we could see who does more chinups in one sitting. The end of the year will be December 31st, 2008. I'll do my one-rep max in each of the three major lifts that week, and I will also see how many chinups I can do consecutively. That could be one set of chinups or several. :dunno:
we can do the 3 lift thing.. like next year or something or in the summer but everyone has to have video of it so no one can BS.
I'll video doing chins or lifting or whatever, I know right now my bench would prolly for one rep be around 365 or so.. and that prolly wont go up as all I do is pushups

100 pushups a day and how ever many chinups you do a day is more than just ordinary warmup. I didn't see an alcohol reference :dunno: Oh, and you spelled "best" wrong :clap:
What I've been saying, it does hurt you when you keep training without no rest.....not sure why you can't get this rationale, I really can't wait until your next post of "you get used to it" again.

I don't bench, but I do butterflies with dumbells laying down on a bench.....and like I said, I don't try to use heavy weights, especially working out at home. The only way I could show I was in shape on the chest, would be me doing butterflies so many reps. How many chinups do you do? What I am looking for is motivation, it worked last time for me. There should be something we can work out :dunno: It should be easy for either of us to prove we are exercising even if we are doing it different.

You seem to think that it hurts you if you "keep training without no rest". Well, I'm of the opinion that bodyweight training affects the body differently than training with free weights or nautilus-type machines.

I guess in the final analysis, a person will know what works for them and what doesn't ONLY IF they try it out. For me, I started off with a couple of chins about 5 times a day, and now I am seeing significant improvement upon that. Eventually I may need to change the routine, but it works for now!
thats what I'm sayin Buddy, Tyler Turden acts like I'm saying bodyweight stuff is for everyone and I'm tryin to convert people, I'm just sayin it works for me

Nah, Tyler just wants to make sure that we're not overtraining and risking injury. My guess is he hasn't tried to do the chinups and other bodyweight exercises with the frequency that we do them. If he did, he'd realize that the same rules don't seem to apply to the bodyweight exercises. They are, simply put, easier and less taxing on the body.

Nah, Tyler is just saying what he has been saying since post one, you are more likely to get burned out and if you train every single day, you are not allowing your muscles rest. Of course you get used to it :rolleyes: But you do not get in quicker shape because of it, I argue it slows you down until you do. I also have said since post one, I do not believe you cannot significantly measure training being better doing it everyday (7 days a week) to someone who trains a little less. How this is being argued against is beyond me. People who use Atkins diet "works for them" and "they get used to it" but they usually fail, get much fatter and hurt their health, so "it works for me" and "get used to it" means :shit: and that's not any kind of argument. :warning:

A couple of chins, that's a little different than training everyday to fatigue as I was OBVIOUSLY insinuating. If you would have just said you start out slow, very slow like that, I wouldn't have argued with you unless it was 7 days a week :dunno:

Like I said, I bench, squat, and deadlift once a week. I do chins 5 days a week. I guess a good question would be physical dimensions. Right now I am 220lbs and I stand 5ft8.
Whether there is or isn't a bet, I'm gonna get pics of me doing a one-rep max in those three lifts as well as a vid or two to commemorate a year of solid training. I only get to train at lunch hour most days because my wife and homelife takes up the rest of my time.
How about a vid of # of consecutive chins? That way we can keep track of whose method is more effective? How about one-rep max in bench, squat, deadlift, and overhead press? I mention these because they are what I do weekly.

I have a routine I follow, and getting down in weight, I am not going to be lifting alot as I do not want to bulk up.
Example: 60 pound dumbells at least 6 reps horizontally. I know I won't go over that weight, or at least I shouldn't if I am going down in weight. That should be proof of being in shape for chest. I will post my exercises I do and you can choose some more from them.

I'd say.. if you are going to train in boxing.. and weight training.. the main thing is not to bulk up, as you said you wanna me lighter and leaner

Tiny Turdy, I could be wearing a rainbow jumpsuit with pink rubber dicks glued to it and still be more manly than you. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
If you want a challenge, do a basic compound lift that incorporates a number of muscle groups instead of doing nancy curls and butterflies.
As for asking why would you do the routine that I do? The answer is simple: you do it for awhile and maybe, if you're lucky, you'll come to be like your hero, Buddy Rydell, who is loved by women and feared by men the world over! :lol:

Tyler doesn't do squats. He prefers to do reverse toe raises on a hydraulic machine with extra padding on the bar. It's a wonderful isolation exercise. He can already do 5 whole lbs on it. :bears: :lol:
:lol:
I think Turd boy prolly avoids reverse toe raises, they are just too compond, he likes to work EACH toe seperatly and go to complete failure with 2oz weights on each toe

These lines were getting old when people were using them on StingerKarl. :lol:
I might decide to do the butterflies at the end of my workout, and I'll make a vid or a gif image of the weight and me using them for 6. That's not the hard part. The hard part is getting permission to film in the gym, and the hard part is also not disturbing other peoples' workouts with the videocamera and stuff.
But I'll get'er done sometime. Don't you worry, Tiny Turdy! Mighty Mouse will make a video for you! :lol:
With all this talk of being short and such, along with you using little sissy weights, I have to imagine you might be projecting. What's your height, Tiny? It better be a lot more than 5ft8 since you're talking so much. :eeeek: :lol:

I did, I admit that.. I took a yoga class last year and honestly it is ONE of the things that got me into bodyweight training, it is suprisingly hard.
I went there to try and get my back in better shape and it helped a LOT! But I noticed that on top of making my back feel better, I was suprised at how strong some people there were. And this is when I was still lifting a bit, and not 60lb dumbells:laughing:
Lucky for you, there isn't even a post about you doing Yoga I could find, at least you admitted it.....although you say you don't do it anymore :rolleyes: :lol:
Man Buddy, I wish I still had my heavy dumbells I sold before I moved..
You know.. when you are in the gym, there are people that THINK they are strong then there are people that are STRONG! when I worked at Golds none of us would brag about 60's or even use them unless it was in a progression up to the heavier stuff.
Like I think I told you, I have done nothing but bodyweight training and when I did go try to lift a few weeks back I was suprised at my strength.

Yeah, for me it's just logical progression. All my old lifts are getting back up to speed, and I'm doing stuff that I could NEVER do as a teen...like super-widegrip chins. I'm just slowly but surely regaining my form in everything.
But there's always someone out there who is much stronger. The world bench press and squat records are at 1,000+ lbs now, and the deadlift is also. Now THOSE are amazing lifts. The stuff I do is good, but looking at the big stuff puts it in perspective.:dunno:
I'm gonna send you a clip Buddy.. I have a new exercise that is awesome

I'm not saying I'm doing 120lb flyes right now because I don't do flyes often, but I know I could get that easy before the year is out. I bench 300, dude. Do you really think I can't handle two 120lb dumbbells which combine to 240lbs total on the flat bench?

Perhaps it's because I'm a novice (and relatively weak) but it seems to me that 60 lb dumbbell flyes aren't exactly easy. I don't see too many people in the gym doing 120 lb dumbbell bench presses let alone 120 lb dumbbell flyes.

Nothing wrong with that. From what I've seen, I'm one of the stronger guys at my gym during lunch hour, but I imagine there are many stronger who train at different times like in the evening.
My uncle, many years before he died, benched 500 before he hurt his back. I'm now, at age 35, around the same weight and height as most of my uncles were. They were all about this size or taller, and they were strong as hell. It runs in the family. :dunno:

I'm sure you're just giving Tyler the business because he's doing the same to you.
I've been doing a lot of chinups and pushups for about two weeks now and I'm already seeing results, especially in my biceps and back. Hopefully, I can continue to get bigger as I stick with this new routine. I'm going to try varying my chinups (different grips, adding weights) to see if it helps even more.

Untwist your panties, Tiny Turdy. You definitely have a hair or two stuck in them, and it's making you pissy. If you didn't know that I lift heavy weights, then you haven't been reading the threads in here, and it follows from there that you don't know what you're talking about. :lol:
I was curling 45s for sets of 10 when I was 20. That's 15 years ago. Heck, 10 years ago, I could dumbbell bench press 100s for 8, and I wasn't training specifically for that...I was supersetting with flyes to shape up after exams. :dunno:
I just think a grown man, if that is what you are (which would be surprising because you sound like a teenager measuring yourself against men and getting mad when you don't measure up), should be lifting more than a measly couple of 60lb dumbbells in chest exercises. And now you're saying you can't even do that. :lol:
Sounds like someone is upset for realizing that they are weak. Not everyone is cut out to be strong. Don't get mad about it, Turdy! You could still play pingpong, right?:dunno:
I'll still be plugging away at the heavy weights at the end of the year, and I'll be glad to show you. :dunno:

Wow, such hostile angry language. Not everyone starts out a 98lb weakling like you, Turdy. I know guys who don't lift weights who are 6ft2 and 220lbs (One fellow at work does no weights, and he's a big big guy).
Granted they carry some bodyfat, but they could walk right in and use 60s no problem (though I suspect he'd warm up with lighter stuff first). Where did you grow up? With circus midgets? :lol:

It's not that much weight if it is the only heavy chest exercise you do. He doesn't do anything else for chest apparently. It'd be more impressive if he did it after doing Incline Press, Bench Press, and Decline Press. You need complete chest development or else you may eventually get hurt. :dunno:
I have seen people get hurt doing flys..
IMO it is more of a finishing lift.. after some heavy pressing motions..

Nope, he doesn't bench or do anything else for his chest apparently. Kinda dumb because you need complete chest development to protect against injury. But that's ok because he says I'm a liar. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Untwist your panties, Tiny Turdy. You definitely have a hair or two stuck in them, and it's making you pissy. If you didn't know that I lift heavy weights, then you haven't been reading the threads in here, and it follows from there that you don't know what you're talking about. :lol:
I was curling 45s for sets of 10 when I was 20. That's 15 years ago. Heck, 10 years ago, I could dumbbell bench press 100s for 8, and I wasn't training specifically for that...I was supersetting with flyes to shape up after exams.
I just think a grown man, if that is what you are (which would be surprising because you sound like a teenager measuring yourself against men and getting mad when you don't measure up), should be lifting more than a measly couple of 60lb dumbbells in chest exercises. And now you're saying you can't even do that.
Sounds like someone is upset for realizing that they are weak. Not everyone is cut out to be strong. Don't get mad about it, Turdy! You could still play pingpong, right?
I'll still be plugging away at the heavy weights at the end of the year, and I'll be glad to show you. :dunno:
15 years ago you were in your prime, unless you age like a fine wine.....in which you must be going through your second child hood :doh: . 45's curling? I thought you were He-man :lol: What happened to the 120's :rolleyes: 100's on benching? Again, that's not butterflies now is it :nono: How many posts will it take until you see you are the one bragging about lifting weight, in which so far.......it is all talk, and two, when you were prime it wasn't alot :notallthere: I sound like a teenager, but I'm not the one who is talking about pink weights, nor bragging about how much I can lift more than you. You can post a video now doing WELL over 60 pound BUTTERFLIES correctly, then you can post curling well over 60 pound dumbells, NOW :laughing:

No, I'd be patting the top of your head while you're bringing your mother a beer as she nibbles my balls! Are you sure you're not a teenage girl? That would explain the anger and inability to lift weights over 40lbs. :lol:
I'm a teenage girl because you want to smack me? :lol:

Seeing as how I can cheat curl 175, powerclean more than 205, and do 10 chinups at a bodyweight of 220lbs, it's not hard to believe. :dunno:
People should do what they say they can do. :dunno: :dunno:

let me say if we are talking purely "FLYS" then 60 is a lot
dumbell presses... it's not
flys are really for bodybuilders or bitches though
That's what the hell I've been saying :notallthere:
And to stop further madness, no......I am not saying that's alot of weight. I am saying that's where I stop and that's proof I must be in fairly good shape. The MAJORITY of people cannot lift that right off the bat, this is a fact. Personally I have never seen anyone do that without working out, but I will concede I have not seen every person workout :dunno: If you guys think it's pussy, then fine......I am not in shape enough to do it easily 6 times, give me a month or two :dunno: I'm confident I can do 50's now, but I will try tomorrow :blobbox: Keep bringing me my motivation, I appreciate it :popcorn: Maybe you will get it in a few pages :rolleyes:

It's not that much weight if it is the only heavy chest exercise you do. He doesn't do anything else for chest apparently. It'd be more impressive if he did it after doing Incline Press, Bench Press, and Decline Press. You need complete chest development or else you may eventually get hurt. :dunno:
Why did you assume I didn't do other chest exercises :popcorn: I only said I don't do benchpresses, and I listed I do several chest exercises :dunno: I constantly alternate to keep my muscles shocked, alternate weekly, twice a week since you can't read.

Incline and decline only on the bench. I also do cable curls for chest, and in the summer I do flies in the water after a chest workout too......I also do vertical butterflies with my Smith Machine. Not all at once, but I mix it up. I do multiple exercises, multiple ways a week.......for each muscle group.

I like them because I think it has given me speed and maybe a little power with my hooks :dunno: if it doesn't and it's all in my head.....it's ok because I like the movement. Like I said, I don't try to go body builder type of weights like Buddy does :doh: You can't if you want to box Cruiser, correct? :dunno: :warning:

15 years ago I was in my prime? Nope, I didn't stop growing heightwise til I was around 25. People in my family age slowly. As for the rest, read the posts. As far as prime goes for strength, different people have different primes. I doubt I've reached mine. Fred Hatfield was 45 when he squatted 1,013lbs.
As for posting videos and such, now you're spinning worse than IandI. First it was the end of 2008 and now you want to try and goad me into posting a video in January. Are you that desperate for something to jerk off to, Tiny? :lol:

Hilarious. You sound like a jealous bitch. You're talking about prime and such, when it is known that many people gain strength right into their 40s. Talking about what I was doing then as opposed to now. Dude, people gain strength over time, and I made that point in this thread if you had the brains to go back and look.
And frankly you DO sound like a teenager, daring me to post something now or you'll call me a liar? Big fucking deal. I lift weights for enjoyment and health, not to validate my lifts for you whenever you feel like whining about them.:lol:
