last year me and my friend worked out together and all he said all day was he could bench more than me and i would never bench more than him and shit like that by the way he could only bench 115lbs and every 1-2 days we worked out and he would train chest and arms only and i would train every muscle 1-2x a week and now he is still benching 115lbs shit if not lower and i'm benching 175lbs but you know what i don't throw it in his face and shit like that i atleast try to help him and shit..what would you think if you had a training partner like that? every time i looked at him he would be flexing or some shit(not that flexing is bad, but how he was it was bad)and kept talking about himself. finally i stopped working out w/him and thats when my bench and other stuff started increasing.

it's very hard to find a good training partner.

solo is the way to go...especially since I workout at home. One day the cleaning lady will find me dead with a 400lb Oly bar on my throat however.

Functional Lifting = Life
|
I almost always workout alone. If my friend works out with me, I get distracted because he usually talks a lot (of course I talk as well so it's a lot my fault too, but I try to stay on topic) and then I have increased rest intervals and decreased concentration. He's about half my size, but I would never throw it in his face that I'm stronger. I mean, come on, what can you expect when there's over 100 pounds of difference between two people?

I guess I'm blessed that I have such a great lifting partner. We have been working out together for 4 years, since middle school really.
Another guy used to workout with us all the time too, but he's on the year-round baseball thing, we rarely get a workout together anymore. |

Yeah, people like that suck... It's also annoying when people know you lift and every time you see them all they ask is how much you bench...
About the training partner thing yeah, I definately prefer solo. Not only is it hard to find a good w/o partner, but your schedules would most likely be very hard to work around as well. |
