bench PR

[deciever]

I was benching tonight.. wasnt quite sure what i was going to do.

i was really tight and sore all over from my squat workout, so i figured i'd go heavy for a single or so.. well i wound up doing..

95 x 6, 135 x 6, 155x3, 175 x 2, and then i wound up getting 185 x 3 for 2 sets

my old PR was 175 x 3 for 3 sets. and the most reps i've ever done previously was 1 with 185.. so i was pretty happy with that.
just thought i'd share

way to go man, HEY it's progress and that's always good. I think u got a good 215 or more pause in you for your next meet, not sure if your using a shirt or not.

[deciever]

i've got shirts lined up for ever.. the people just need to bring them in.. i've got a size 44 inzer now, and i've got a size 40 crain , 42, and 40 inzer, maybe 1 or 2 more 40's or possibly a 38, all willing to be handed to me otherwise they will go to waste....

gotta love trianing with people who give hand me downs.

im aiming for 215 in november with a pause.. just nervous because i dont usually do well on bench after squat.

ALL these people are giving you these shirts?????, share the wealth hey if there's anything in there with like a 43 chest relaxed 53 shoulder relaxed and 15 arms relaxed, HOOK A BROTHER UP. If the measurements are a lil smaller than that then I'm guessin the shirt will be tighter and better????!! not so sure about the shirt fittings either.

[deciever]

i doubt i could get one of those... i have a 37 inch relaxed chest (maybe 38, and im a size 42-44.. so you'd be like a 50.. dont think i could get you one... sry man.

and i dunno if they would want me just giving them away.. not really sure.. and besides, your getting benches shirt.

[Cubanito17]

ye i'm gettin benches shirt to hold but remember once you fit in it or i'm done with my OCT and DEC meet unless I have another one soon and I don't have a shirt. I promised him to u that it's urs.

Naw but it's cool, I just gotta stop buying stupid shit for my car and save some money for my lifting. I mean hell if I can do what I do off a 4 board in a double denim then if it's tru that at lockout I had about 380lbs as long as I can push that with all my force and lock it out. Then I don't mind paying somewhere round $200 for a shirt I mean it adds about 60lbs to my bench. And if I give it more hell and train harder for that meet well I mean harder I mean smarter than 400 will go FOR SURE by the end of this year. I want 375+ in OCT and 400+in DEC.

nice job little girl!

right now im 5'7 140, tiny chest, tiny arms, tiny legs. im just tiny..

im about a 37-38 inch chest relaxed, 13-14 arms maybe, and shoulders, maybe 44 or something, not a clue.
i'd only be getting a single ply blast shirt.. so i think you velcro double would be a bit better..

my bench shirt goes up my arms in like 15 seconds.. so i doubt that can be good. . so that why i need a new one!

[Cubanito17]

little girl what weight class and division do you compete in. THATS AWESOME 195!!!!

i doubt if i got the shirt, i'd ever use it. remember im USAPL, i may as well just wear a t-shirt.

and it'll take my years to grow into it any way.

[Cubanito17]

ok so you want the shirt to sell it??? Or just like keep it in your room??? I thought you were gonna grow into it over the years and then use it maybe if you find another fed.

I was in 132's but i hate dieting, and i alreayd made my mark in there.. and im a growing boy
