[Lifting_Dad]

I decided that in the spirit of powerlifting, I'd roll with a paused rep version of this challenge.

Nice lifting...


Not takin it as a challenge but I did 315 for 10 Paused a fue months ago, but I'm about 50lbs heavier then you.

Pausing imo is what separates the men from the boys. Nice work man keep it up.

Yes, pausing is no joke.

My cousin played football for Marshal. Ended up hurting his knee, which hurt his chances to go pro, but he was very strong. There's a video on youtube of him bench pressing 225 for 50 reps. Just search for "Ian Hoskins." He weighed about 270 when he did that
