Bench PR?!?!?!?
NICE!

looks like this new programming is working for you man.

[bigwade800]

This is good and good work.

More to come!

[Black_Spit]

A PR this early on is awesome man.

I see you went right to work supersetting. I already do that with some exercises... Especially smaller exercises. But I might start with bigger ones too.

Mind boggling right????


Counting the decline sessions, this was my 9th upper session and I hit a 5 or 10 (can't remember...inb4old ) pound PR. Good stuff

Thanks man.

Yeah...I'm glad we had that discussion in your log yesterday...it definitely saved me some time.

[NC_Tarheel]

This is good and good work.

More to come!

Thanks!!

Looking forward to it!!

Like I said, the 295 was pretty much smoked. If I know Matt, he's going to want to put 300 on the bar next time we're in the gym together so I hope you have another 10 lb PR coming soon .

He can do whatever he wants....





And by whatever I mean continue to post seductive hamstring pronz for me and BMont

[Raigs]

Nice bench PR! Your getting stronger weekly.

[NC_Tarheel]

Nice bench PR! Your getting stronger weekly.

Hopefully my form is improving weekly too....that's the main issue right now. After I get that worked out, hopefully I can start moving some big boy weight

[HARRYBEAST]

Nice PR!

[NC_Tarheel]

Nice PR!

Thanks Harry!!

[coloBB]

negged for not going for 300lbs bench

[NC_Tarheel]

negged for not going for 300lbs bench

All bench numbers are irrelevant until you can bench tree fiddy. Until I get there...anything else is meaningless





EDIT: I just do what I'm told

[bigwade800]

The not doing 300 is called dangling a carrot.

I know damn well he thought, I can do 300. I know he can do 300 and now, it's only 5 lbs away and, he hit a clean paused pr that's close to his all time best Sealy Posturpedic slam of the chest and heave at a much heavier body weight.

So, he will be focused on doing what needs to be done and hit the 300 in due time albeit in a short period of time.

[FrmrHoss]

Thad you can borrow my micro plates if you want 297.5.

[bigwade800]

LOL, that's awesome

We even have 1/4 lb plates at the gym, I shat you not

[mmorton]
