I just feel like going alone, mine are not that heavy especially bench press, good lord you guys are beasts! lol

Bench: 160-175
Squat: 320
Deadlift: I've never really done these, I can do 100, but thats all I've tried, I'll keep at it and see how high it goes.

And that kid who posted this, if those stats of your are for real, thats wicked and all guy, but your ego is getting so big it might go round the world and up your ass if you don't watch it.

i dont know why people are concerned with max's you get way more out of doing about four sets of bench then you ever will with trying to hurt your self so you can say oh i bench 900000lbs now fall to your knees and suck my dick ,



when you cant hear the music in your head phones ,cause the guy next to you is grunting out one more rep and cussing at the weights remember .... that guy is probably me

Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them: A desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.

1st off,, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.
2ndly, What reason does anyone have to lie about their lifts on a message board? To get compliments for something you really don't do? If so,, what weight does that compliment really have? So with that said, I have no reason to doubt your poundages. If it's true it's fantastic expecially at your age.
3rdly, personnally max lifts don't mean much to me. I'm 41 years old and I can't remember ever waisting a workout to find my max bench etc. My goals are different then how much weight I lift.
4thly, Hi numbers on bench are important if your a powerlifter. Being a bodybuilder that number isn't as important but what is important is how well you handle the weight you do push and what your physic looks like. I fall into that category. I only care about the finished product.

To answer your question as best I can though, My all time best bench press was 495 x 3 (last set of 4 working sets)
Currently my last bench day 4 x 365.
I don' t do heavy deadlifts due to a back injury 10 x 225 8 x 315, 2 sets of 6 x 365
2ndly,

How can it bother you? What they do has nothing to do with you so why worry about it? It's their loss for not doing them



Homer: Hey! I saved your life! That egg sandwich could have killed you by cholesterol.
Lenny: Pfft, forget it, Homer. While it has been established that eggs contain cholesterol, it has not yet been proven conclusively that they actually raise the level of serum cholesterol in the human
blood stream.

bothers me in the fact that they neglect to do it.. what didn't you understand? same way it bothers me someone keeps a messy house, does drugs, wont do their homework.. whatever.. they can make whatever choices they want in their lives, but i have the right to not like those choices.. do i lose sleep over it? of course not.. so if you're questioning me for having a problem with it, thenmaybe you should question yourself for having a problem with that

Some of the members pics are in the members pic section. Just look up a name to see if they ever posted pics.

What is the main point here...stength or mass?

The point is Neither one. The point was Comparison and curiosity. The kid who started the thread was looking to compare to others on the board and I believe looking to compare to others his age. His other reason for posting was curious to know peoples max lifts.

Good response.

Actually I think many lifters on here knew what Prophet meant by his original statement. I've seen many many posts in the "what pisses me off the most" thread and similiar threads stating things we don't like about what others do in a gym. It didn't appear his statement was insulting to anyone directly.

The point he is trying to make is: Squats are the meat and potatoes of any leg program. If they are not included then the program is lacking substinence. Same phylosophy for Deadlifts.

Regardless if your a bodybuilder or a powerlifter those are 2 of your core excercises.

It is an incomplete piece of advice everytime you read that statement. I dislike it tremendously. A person new to the iron game will not know how to perceive that correctly and think "oh kewel, all I have to do to get muscular is to workout and eat like a pig. NO you will get strong and fat. EAT EAT and EAT means eating a balanced diet of your recommended number of calories for your current weight and spread them out throughout a day so you are eating Frequently 6-8 meals a day. That statement does not mean to run your ass down to Burger King and order up 3 whoppers, 2 fries and a milk shake and think your on a bulking routine. The only thing your bulking up is your mid section.

what about tricep pressdowns huh Fire?? where do those fit! HA HA HA
not the lifters of today, I never see anyone doing deads anymore, the old school way of training is long gone for most, too damn bad IMO. I will keep it old school for ya though fire.
