I don't have a problem with Mark commenting on my diabetes. I give him full consent to do so. Thank you all for your kind words toward my accomplishment, and Starting Strength has helped manage my diabetes. If i had not done barbell training prior to being diagnosed with diabetes i certainly would have died. No shit. Dead as a nail. I have my diabetes under control, so i don't need any one on this forum telling me how to manage it. Arkadian, don't fucking worry about me, worry about yourself.

Congrats Chase. That is a tremendous feat. I've got Crohn's disease and it definitely impacts my training. Which makes me respect your accomplishment even more.

I learned about SS at 43 years old. It's definitely been a huge positive impact on my health.

I hope I get to shake your hand some time.

Mr. Lindey,

that's an inspiring press! Congratulations and thanks for sharing it.

Now I understand why you scold me...

"My God, It's Full of Assholes!"





P.S.: a “2001: A Space Odyssey” classic!

Not to be an asshole, but I don't think David Bowman said it in 2001. I think they added it in the sequel, 2010.

Congratulations on an amazing press. Unbelievable. You have done something most of the men who will ever live will never even come close to doing, even if they try. Bravo.

need a do-over for this thread, one without all the distraction

instead of the cluster fuck it became, it should have been a celebration of your accomplishment - as the good doctor said, you've done something most won't even come close to!

nicely done, chase - kudos on your awesome press

[MiddleMike]

Chase, To jump on the band wagon, that was a MONSTER press! Congratulations and keep up the training! Like many on here, I wish I had had the sensibility and commitment when I was your age to recognize the possibilities for strength training. Can't wait to see more as it really does provide inspiration!

[crookedfinger]

Holy shit. To both topics on this damn thread.
Fucking insanity (again applies to both, but that damn press. Dear God!)

Ho yeah... right apparently: http://wiki.c2.com/?MyGodItsFullOfStars

I really can't wait to see what happens if and when Chase goes up to the 270s in weight. I could only imagine that press ballooning.

[David Kirkham]

Damn sweet press Chase. Keep reaching.
