Cswol doing 55 x 225 at the gym - video

[_aj_]

On another thread, I said I could do 10 or 11 reps at 225. Looking at this video, I want to change my claim to 30. And I am 48, FFS.

this is pisspoor.

sorry cswol, despite everything, i love you man, but this is piss poor performance.

this isnt even half reps i dont care what anyone says.

Yeah, I gotta agree. Props for posting the vid, but wtf was that?

[cswol]

its hard to hit chest when your pumpin the reps, i ususally train without hitting the chest to keep pressure on the chest muscles, just something ive always done, either way im gona be 39 still good for a regular gym guy, half reps or whatever, i said i would video and did, and arce saw me in the gym far from small or fat about 270.

[OTHstrong]

Sigh I have to agree, got to at least touch the chest bro.  I'm sure OTH will agree with me that this isn't even close. 

No you guys are right but hey at least he followed through to the best he could and it was some good time here but we need to keep these lift videos and challanges coming, this is so much fun, lol..

No you guys are right but hey at least he followed through

If one rep had touched his chest he would have "followed through" in his baggy pants.

  cswol is not a small person   he was 285 on the scale


  he likes to be big   he is a bouncer, body guard, security, etc



  he is what he is



 he has been nothing but a loyal and good friend to me in person


so all I can do is be the same to him in return



we win together


we lose together

Yes I give him credit for posting the video.  I didn't think it would ever happen, especially if it was a failure.

[anabolichalo]

of course he is big

but his lack of muscularity makes him look small


basically he's fat

Good lifts there in the video cswol being a tall guy as you are keeping tension on is important.

[Quickerblade]

[ukjeff]

Reps or age?

[cswol]

hey i stand by what i post, i said i would go meet arce and video it....................my age, 39 years old

[Parker]

 Parker, I said, we failed. Total failure. We lost.

Arce, you didn't lift the weight. You didn't fail, he did.
Don't suffer through other people's delusions---for it encourages them. And it the end, it never looks good.
You are a good man. Cswol failed due to COUNTER intelligence causing him to miss his anabolic window.

  See you at 07am on Wed at LAX bro

[Kim Jong Bob]

haha i saw one full rep ..on the way down on the first and up on the last

[King Shizzo]

I don't get it. I have never done half reps like that. I was always taught that a rep consists of: the bar touching your chest, and almost (if not) full lockout.

Good way to look at it.  His reps were terrible though.

[ukjeff]

my age, 39 years old

Wow, simply wow.

[cswol]

galeniko no your not, no way bro i stand by my comments i would smoke you in the gym, arce saw me in the gym, im not fat or small, pretty big at 270

Depends on how you train.  I personally like 1/3  1/2 reps when training sometimes.  Helps me develop explosive power out of the bottom part of my lift, which is important in raw benching.  That being said I made sure my reps were slow and controlled with full extension in my 39 video.  I knew if I cheated at all it wouldn't have counted for the contest.
