I saw 2 of the most awesome things at the gym today...2 guys who stood out in all those ways we love so much.
Guy 1: about 6'2" prob about 180...doing flat BB bench. Weight used, 315lbs for about 5 or 6 reps...if "reps" are what you call them. His arms were kind of long, so when he lifted it off the rack, the bar was several inches above the set point...OK, so he then would proceed to bench, but the bar only came down to where it was originally sitting before he had it racked...about a 4-5inch rep. I honestly doubt this guy could have benched 200lbs with a full range of motion but apparently he felt pretty good about his form.
Guy 2: this guy wins biggest douche outfit of the year award. Everything he had on was Under Armour. Under Armour shirt, pants, head thing, gloves, wrist wraps, and elbow wraps...and to top it off, an Under Armour towell tucked in his pants. The guy was probably about 170lbs, but if he took all the Under Armour stuff off of his arms, he'd have been about 155. What made it even better was the die hard, hard core look he had the entire time. He did 90lb DB military press where the DB's never even reached the top of his head on the way down...but he turned them inward on each rep...sort of a half ass 2inch rep Arnold press, lol. After this, sternum crusher bench press with 135lbs, followed by 80lb reverse curls that were really just a crazy hybrid of front raises, clean and jerks, and hard core hip thrust.
Anyway, these 2 guys absolutely made my day!!!
