I only juiced once and that was back in 1986 or 1987 and I took a shot of testosterone at the time.
Would I shoot now if I didn't have a bad liver.... maybe.

I have Hep C. But it is ironic that my sister died from liver disease and my father now has it from years of drinking.

225 is a good benchmark weight for testing raw strength & endurance
Depending on ones weight. I used to do 225 til failure every week. To me, it tests endurance, raw strength & is a great way of getting hard. One of the best workouts I ever had came when I did 3 sets of 225 burn outs with only 1 min. rest in between sets. I did this for incline bench & regular bench. The whole worout took a total of 20 mins. ( 5 min rest between the transition of reg bench & incline)
If a person wants to look good quick, do this workout 2 times a week for 2 to three weeks & watch your body change right between yor eyes. Hola !

I saw something this year about a player from Virginia Tech that was throwing up 225 like it was nothing. Showed him doing 15 reps. He holds a lot of the lifting records on campus. Coaches called him a freak of nature. Don't know if this is the same guy that Foreman posted about earlier.clemson357 said:
225 five times was my best, but that was back in jr-college when I was playing ball and was in decent shape. Hope to be there soon again, hit 205 five times two days ago so maybe it won't be much longer.
225 isnt shit on bench or incline imo... guys at my gym are rocking a lot more than that... some realistic goals for me are 315 for reps on flat and incline
Who is that in your sig mudge?
Btw my reppage is 12 1/2 with 225. Pitiful, I know.

is the test at 225 lbs for a specific reason ?
then you might think about taking a gram a week of testThe Monkey Man said:what if 225 is your max -
(or above your max)
Back in the late 70's it would of been interesting to see how many times i could have repped 225 lbs.
Now at this present moment 225 maybe 7-10 times. Bad rotator doesn't like lots of reps and I'd be afraid of tearing it even more.

it isn't meant to be "shit." it is a measure of strength. if it "isn't shit" then you must be able to do it 20-30+ times, meaning you are strong. I don't think anyone here was asserting that it was actually a heavy weight.

um..i wasnt putting anyone down about the 225 weight... i understand its a measure of strength and no i cannot do it 20-30 times... i dont think i was giving the impression it was easy weight for me.. just a measurement that i would like to surpass by far someday

I can get 225 around 12 times and I max at around 285, so 275 might be a little heavy for you. just my opinion, try it if you want.
clemson357 said:
Hmm, I have a friend who can only ever get 6 reps, and he can put up 275. Supposedly if you can do 13-14 reps you can get 315, but it varies for each person.
BigDyl said:
Yeah, 6 is about the most I've put up and I got 265 without a lot of struggling.
