PUMPING IRON

Quote from mrmarket:



Wow..that's awesome...I only bench 385 lbs and I'm a whale at 255 lbs.

Hey mrmkt, funny you should say that. I was just thinking about you. I remembered you and I exchanged a few posts on the benchpress subject about a year or so ago (I think it was one of those piss fights that are omnipresent on ET and ended not well :D smth like me inviting you to come over so I could kick your butt :D - kidding of course). Back then I was doing around 340 if I recall correctly. I was prepping for a benchpress meet at our univerisity - really wanted to get that bronze statue to show to my grandkids one day - it's on my desk now :) Luckily for me the African American guy who's in my weight category (166-181) and beat me the year before that didn't show up this time :D

Hey 405 is better than I have ever done. I still haven't given up although a disc problem in my lower back has slowed me down (a little).
