What are your lifts?

[Robboe]

Hahahahahaha.

You slept on it funny?!

Hahahahaha.

That's like the goal keeper who missed the world cup through injury. Not through playing but cause he dropped a bottle of aftershave on his foot and cracked the bone and then stood on a sharde of glass from the broken bottle and severed some tendons in his foot.

But i feel for you, Al, I really do.

( nine to ten plates a side is what I push as well . 9 plates is close to 900 ish pounds )

Except this dude weighs below 170 and he's not a short guy either I think?
Very impressive for his weight.

was the except..... for me?? I already know it's an imppressive weight I lift it too.......

 

[Training God]

I know you can lift that weight, I was just trying to convey a point that it is all the more impressive that he can do it at a much lower bodyweight.

 

[Trap-isaurus]

why convey the point....are you his promoter?? I am so very impressed that you have picked yet another thread to become beligerent and argumentative, waste a post if ya want but you have nothing to say that I will ever read, take seriously or respond to ever again.

Not to take anything away from that lift snake eyes, a very impressive weight to lift for someone of small stature or large

The way i read his post (above) was not taking anything from you but actually just giving props to snake eyes.

Where are Snake eyes stats anyway? I thought he was gonna be like 200+.

Fade...you can bent row 315, but only bench 265? That is one of the strangest imbalances I've ever seen. Please don't take it as an insult at all...its just very very uncommon to see that. I would expect someone that can bent row 315 to bench at least 405. Is there a reason for this imbalance?

Oh and I don't actually lift...I just do yoga and use one of those muscle stim machines...

*** If you're going to pick an argument at least make it a valid one. All I was saying, was great job!
Can I not do that or do I have to be chastized everytime I make a comment that is of a positive nature?

I'm not sure. This has frustrated me for a while. For some reason my bench strength is low. For years (10) I've done incline dumbell and decline hammer strength. I started flat benching about 1.5 years ago but I still feel that I should be stronger considering my other lifts.

Now I my attitude on chest day is crappy and I know that's not helping me any.

I'd say he was patronising him.

 

[Training God]

I'd say I wasn't.

I wasn't pointing out that his lift was unimportant nor stupid, just giving praise where praise is due.

Ok?

Yes but you were patronizing BjUaFyF to praise Snake, my guess is because you don't see eye to eye on many issues. Which is fine but it just seems kind of a cheap shot.

*** How about this? Look up the defintion of "patronize" and get back to me. Then you'll see I wasn't. Back to my original question. Can I not give someone praise for their lifts. It's not like I only gave props to Snake Eyes?

 

[Slim Jim]

"patronize"
To treat in a condescending manner

Seems to me you were being very condescending toward BjUaFyF 7 while giving Snake praise.
it wouldn't happen to have anything to do with the fact that you and snake are both members at WBB and like to come here to "stir things up" ?

Can I not give someone praise for their lifts. It's not like I only gave props to Snake Eyes?

You give BjUaFyF praise by telling him that a guy almost half his weight can push the same amount of weight? That's sure to make him feel better.

*** That was my point, I wasn't taking a condescending tone with him. Although it's quite hard to explain that to people when you're on the internet.

*** Great conspiracy theory. But it's wrong. If you would back track you'd Snake Eyes is a positive poster, myself, well it look like I've been labled a shiat disturber.
But that is far from the truth.

You give BjUaFyF praise by telling him that a guy almost half his weight can push the same amount of weight? That's sure to make him feel better.

*** Ok, will it make things better if I say that he is much stronger then me? If you are so offended by my post just tell me.
This is fairly childish, could we move on? It's becoming a bore really.

It wouldn't matter to me if you were stronger, what offended me is that you belittle BjUaFyF to praise Snake

I agree, lets argue about something else

Hey buddy...go find my thread called, "the mind in lifting." That will get your bench up!

The way I read it is "you should be able to row what you bench", and vice versa, which is to say my row sucks and his is pretty freaking high!

I know my back needs work though, but while I used to think my bench sucked it is seeming like its one of my better movements now, so perhaps I'm blinding myself here.

Yep, I should have clarified, I touch the plates to the floor I dont touch my toes with the bar any longer. I think it puts the spine/discs in a compromising position, and I am mainly doing it for my lower back not my hams.

Just so anyone who is unsure knows, the "haha" at the end of this indicated that i said it in jest.

i.e. I wasn't being serious.
