Noice.

Awesome job. I've actually used a video of you pressing to convince a friend of mine to learn the excersise.

Things im happy about is that im starting to learn the Power Clean after having subbed it with rows for the last 4 months.

Seriously? That's awesome! Glad I could help convince someone to press!

People used to say I had a big head (physically).

A few days ago my coworker cut me off in the middle of a sentence and said, "You know, I used to think you had a big head, but now that you're all big, it's not. That's weird."

Small victories.... ?

Awesome Tbone!

You are stronger than most guys that I know.

I am "cutting" (not really, but am trying to lose a bit of body fat/weight), and am going for a press PR Friday, and had a rep PR on squat this past Tues. Go me!

Thanks.

You need to convince those guys to lift more.

And, don't get all skinny on me because I will cry. Make sure you video your press for me. If you want to do it without a shirt on, I won't complain.

Haha, thats hillarious actually.

Too bad it doesnt do much for perspective of dick size. "I used to think you had a big dick, now that you've grown I actually think it looks quite small."
Not based on a true story.

Bench press 305x5x3, pretty cool. My 21 year old 1RM was 405. I'd like to beat that at my advanced Geezling age of 40.

Also, I pressed 182x5x3, which means that if I were a Dungeons and Dragons character, I'd have strength=18.

Skinny won't ever happen. I like food too much. Just want to be a bit more agile on the field.


Press will be video'ed. I really don't expect to get all 3 sets of 5, but I will be content with a single completed set.
