So my gym has a challenge on friday. Im going to wrap elbows and wrists and go for 600 on flat bench. Taking thursday off. Figure last set before max will be 545...should be able to get that easy with elbows wrapped.

I would like to see this 600 pound lift attempt! Think you can have a gym buddy video tape it for us?

Honestly..ive learned im just about moving the weight...abs are for the chicks.

Im about moving the weight as well but i would like to do it and have abs as well lol. Larry wheels can do it, so i know its possible lol. I dont see any reason to think that i cant do something if someone else is doing it. Im a firm believer that i can do anything i put my mind to if i put in the work. Which is probably why i got myself in my current predicament... 4 kids, work, pursuing my automotive technology degree, and chasing the gains all at the same time. So far my grades are keeping up, lifts are progressing, killing it at work, spending as much time as possible with kids, and keeping wife satisfied. She's extremely hard to satisfy unless we're talking in bed (I got that sh1t on lock) but as for the rest im trying lol

Wow, you have a lot on your plate. I personally dont think i can do something just because someone else is doing it. For example, i would never think that i can run as fast as usaine bolt if i gave it everything i had and committed my life to it. Its just not going to happen. Genetics plays a huge role in what we are physically capable of doing. Larry wheels is a genetic freak...like most elite athletes. I could never compete at his level and look like he does...i just dont have the genes for it...regardless of how long i trained or how much gear i used. Same as i know that i could train all day everyday riding a bike and i would never be lance Armstrong. Those guys, and many other elite athletes, are in a whole different class. All i can do is make the best out of what god gave me.

i was too hard on him...that was the Budweiser talking...lol

 

[swimfan65]

IM Tren Ace killed my hunger, despite the other benefits... Added EQ and hunger returned. Being a long ester takes a few days but EQ def helps hunger for me.

I never ran EQ...how is it?

 

[PoSiTiVeFLoW]

I never ran EQ...how is it?

Lovely. It's a slow gainer, but it really helps increase hunger, no sides, and it makes me feel Fuller (not bloated).

I have/had knee and back issues and I swear my joint pain and flexibility are improved a lot training with EQ. I am thinking of basically making my TRT always Test and EQ combined. Others also doing this. A lot of people ignore EQ because they don't immediate "feel" it, which is not a good way to judge it's potential.

This is an awesome post. Knowing what you’ve got and making the best of it has to be the best way to enjoy life.......

After reading that i looked at myself. Can I be the strongest guy (or anywhere near), honestly no, I have pretty bad levers for bench and squat with historical lordosis and kyphosis from being overweight. Can’t change those things but I can be stronger than I am now and strong by average gym goer standards for sure. That’s a good goal for me for now, I’m happy with shooting for that.

I just know that if i hadnt messed around so much in life up to this point i had extreme potential. And im still young so given the right training and suoolementation and PED's who knows how far i can take it? I know i can go along ways further than most. I have great genetics and just never had constistency up until now. I trained hard but i would do it for a year then stop and have to go to rehab bc of drugs. I was in this cycle of rehab, relapse, repeat. But i went from benching mid 200's to mid 300's in a few months similar jumps in squat and deads too. So how far can i go? Who knows? But im gonna take it as far as i can and see.

My daughter is 8. They wont let her in the gym till 13. Cant wait to get the home gym going.

My kids are ridiculously tall but only 10-12, so I sneak them in to the gym and nobody challenges it.

 

[Codybenz]

We go to a local gym that's not busy so I only let him workout when nobody else is there or somebody I know. It's a 24 hrs gym that only has somebody working 3 days a week.

It's football season right now so no working out for him. Gotta rest those legs between games

 

[swimfan65]

317 after workout today...but...going out for chicken wings and beers for the OSU game tonight. Also, didnt attempt 600. I have a hairline fracture in my wrist from 3 weeks ago and didnt want to risk it.

 

[Codybenz]

You can never go wrong with wings and football.

Nothing to see here folks, Swim is just overhead pressing my bench max for reps .
Impressive bud!

Impressive that bro. Love this board as whilst everyone is always hugely supportive of individuals achieving what’s good for them, you don’t have to look far to see how much further you can take things. I did sets of 10 at 110 and was feeling it tbh lol
