Ky Meet Results

**Kystatechairman** · 10-09-2002, 10:38 AM

Awesome time @ OCT 5 NASA KY REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP @ Lexington,Ky! Their were more than 50 lifters from KY,WV,OH & TN. Solid Rock Strength Team put on a great Christian event for the lifters & audience. A lady walked up to my wife & starting crying

because of the words she heard from Solid Rock Strength Team. Also, I'm a member of Solid Rock Stength Team too.

This meet was a great learning experience for me. I was testing 2 different shirts. The denim was too big because it was a borrowed shirt. So, I got no support @ all. The 2nd attempt totally fatigued my triceps a little. Even though I missed my 3rd attempt with the Phenom @ the middle of the lift. The Phenom gave me unbelievable support lowering the weight & off the chest. 530 felt really light coming down. I need to get the arms taken in 2 inches because I could pull more than 1 inch of the shirt off my arms. So, I got less tricep support. Definitely, once I get the arms of the shirt taken, 530 & more will fall! I'm going to send it back this week because I plan to compete @ NOV 9 NASA WV REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. I'm going to give 525-530 a ride again. If I make this lift, Phenom will give me a 80lb increase in my bench. Otherwords, 450 + Phenom = 530 @ body weight of 207!

NOTHING COMPARES TO A PHENOM
GOT PHENOM?

1st attempt: 463(poly)

2nd attempt: 507(denim) X

3rd attempt: 530(PHENOM) X

Good job man, you get it dialed in and hit next time.

**Cubanito17** · 10-11-2002, 03:10 PM

what's your weak point in a lift and what's your raw max compared to lift in a phenom. I've been wondering about this shirt that's why i'm asking.

And when you ordered how'd you go about measurements?

Great lifts bro.

**Kystatechairman** · 10-12-2002, 09:17 AM

As of now, my weak point is the lockout. My raw max is 450(pause) & 475(touch-n-go) @ body weight of 207. I'll probably get from 70-100 with the Phenom because it's the best bench shirt on the market.

I gave my relax measurements.

Way to go man, have you ever tried a denim? And where do you find the phenom helps you MOST.

**Kystatechairman** · 10-12-2002, 07:48 PM

I used to have a denim, but it blew out last month. The difference between the phenom & denim is that the phenom gives a lot more supports lowering the weight & a lot more push or pop pressing the weight.

Is it a type of shirt that takes a certain weight to touch? Or is kinda like a poly that you can bring your arms down by forcing
This is important b/c I'd love to try one out but i'ma be pissed if I order one and then after orderin I'm not strong enough for it.

**Kystatechairman** · 10-14-2002, 11:57 AM

It takes a certain weight to touch because the shirt is extremely tight & the matertial is thick too. Also, this can occur with any type of shirt too, not just a phenom.

I knew about other types of shirt, trust me I know my double denim I can't get anything that I can lockout to touch it so i'ma have to put off on that shirt.

That's why I was thinking about trying a phenom but I wouldn't wanna give exact measurements then it not work for me and I have another shirt lyin round til I get strong enough to use.
