So Today I was feeling really pumped so I said to myself "I'm gonna bench press 315 today, I'm not leaving the gym until I hit 315"
So I go to the gym like a man on a mission, missed it the first time, Sat on the bench for about 5 minutes listening to my music visualizing myself bench pressing 315, and I did it! :D
Hit 305 x 4 for ATG squats, feelsgoodman.
also currently cutting CKD style
keep hittin PR`s everybody!
Congrats to Samskwatch and Bally!!!
good stuff and shows the power of visualization!
Previous 1RM at bench was 205, and i got 225 today.

appreciate it. that was the goal before summer and already got it, it was like Christmas today
I ran a 5:08 mile in high school.. would have broken 5 my senior year, but halfway through the season I had to quit because my friend wasn't allowed to run anymore... breaking 5 was my all time high school goal... some day I might try to break it again. The main thing that holds me back is that I'm trying to add some mass right now and breaking 5 contradicts that. Quitting track is by far the most regretful decision I have made in my life thus far.
[QUOTE=MOC9140;626478563]I ended up beating this and pushing my squat five rep max to 230 lbs.[/QUOTE]
Upped it to 235lbs about an hour ago!
Was at 350x1 DL about 1 and half weeks ago, smashed that this week going 375x2.
Tried 4 plates, got about half way up Ill have it within the next 2 weeks.

In June last year I raeched my goal of benching 200lbs. The reactions of kids at school kept me going hard on chest every 4th day since and last night broke my record by pressing 270(1rm). Now i'm going for 300 and can hardly wait for chest day!

[QUOTE=jetlynk;624655523]flat benched 2 X 80lb Dumbbells for 6 this weekend. DOn't think its the most I've ever pressed but I do think its the most I've ever done with dumbbells.[/QUOTE]
Got out an extra 2 reps today for 8 reps of 2X80lb DBs, also got 100lb overhead tricep extentions for 10 tonight, kinda scared myself on that one most I had ever done was 70lbs. All in all was a sweet night, had the gym almost all to myself. But what should you expect at 10pm at a gym on a friday night.
Got 95lb dbs x 8 today.
Feeling pretty good about this since it is the first shoulder related PR I have set since my injury.
245x3 on bench
My 1RM on flat bench is 100 lbs. I know it's not much, but I've only been hitting the gym since Jan. 8 so I'm pretty happy with that.
Also, I can push out 408 on the leg press sled 8 times, 500 is my 1RM.
Like I said, not much, but its huge for me and for less than 2 months in the gym.
Hit two PR's in the past week
Pulled 405x3 and squated 315x1 deep.

4 years and 5 days after being hit by a car on my bicycle, F'ing up my left leg and fracturing three lumbar vertebrae I'm happy to say I'm back to squating over 365 lbs.
Set went like this (supersets of Leg Extension then full squats)
Leg Ext: 150x12, 180x10, 210x10, 240x10, 270x8
Squats: 185x10, 225x8, 275x8, 315x6, 365x4
Still won't do a 1RM on squat, still need to work on my core and this is without knee wraps, which I need if I want to go heavier due to old injuries worrying me
:D
interestin day at the gym.... ill usually use this machine to warm up, and then at times, load an extra 45;bs weight on it, to equal out 350lbs.... guess after about a year of that, and other use (college gym) it took its toll b/c today, i broke it! lol. snapped the welds that hold the "thigh pads" and bent that whole bar back...
