Am I allowed in this? :)
-
You should enter Wolfie! I would love to see 400 reps with 225!
Im in, but why is there less than 2 weeks notice? It gives no time to prepare/practice.
-
You fat permabulkers are all 250 pounds plus. It is not impressive seeing a 300 pound guy bench 225, 30 times. How about having weightclasses?
-
i'm in. expect 25-ish outta me.
-

hahahaa, we would eventually have to sleep sometime big guy and if you entered we'd be counting for 24 hours straight, hahahahhaaa........222,223,224,225.......................... ;D

Good stuff guys...looking forward to it!
If you assume that most guys who train at least a little should be able to do 10-12 reps at 225, then a good weight for girls is probably about 95 pounds. I'm in if I can do 95 pounds. ;D

I was just joking. How about 115?

do you even know what 225 looks like ya big bastard?!?! ;D

because i'm one of those permabulkers..and there's no way I'll be able to put up more than twenty in this...stamina is different than pure strength ;D
-
I was just joking. How about 115?
Well I was kinda joking too. 115 would be reasonable...but the timing isn't good on this one for me, so I'll sit out and just be a cheerleader. :)

this should be a "how many reps of your bodyweight" challenge.
can't do it because there only using 45 pound plates and you weigh less than 135. :D

this should be a "how many reps of your bodyweight" challenge.
good idea, but too easy to cheat.

Yeah, definitely...Hell, I would only weigh 130 or so for that one!

I'd be happy if I got 20 reps on this. :-\

I tried it today. Busted out 15 can probably do 2 more but thats it. i suck

Is there going to be a weight class such as under/over 200lbs for this challenge?

I don't see how that could be enforced.
If you can't run with the big dogs - stay on the porch.

Sorry for asking "hero". I geuss I'll have to gain another 100lbs to "run with the big dogs". Without seperate weight classes, this competition is useless.

Here it is: http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=192641.0 (http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=192641.0)
And yes it was natural as far as I know. It was open to anyone on the board with 100+ posts, so a pro (unnatural) could have come in and cleaned up.
The point is to encourage people to push their personal limits and put a show on for GetBig. If you win some prizes along the way then cool, but if not then what did you lose by entering?
Everytime Im in a comp I am surrounded by a "bunch of juiced up apes" and you just cant let it affect your performance.

Well after a heavy bench workout going 600 for 4 reps Raw off a 3 board I managed to muster out 47 reps with 225. They were all legit locked out no bounces. At 40 my chest was burning so damn bad it was not funny. I wanted 50 I'll try it again on a Freash day without doing my heavy work first :)
I've got til June 1st right?
-
YOU DAMN RIGHT MIKEY! hahaha
feels alot lighter than 900 i'm sure! ;D damn man i'm so glad you're okay.. good lord that bombed pic was scary!
would you mind maybe throwing up a "exhibition lift" of 500 for a handful too?! HAHA!
-
Alright. I guess I'll start it off? 5 reps, anyone care to raise?

So are there any restrictions on hand spacing--ie ultra wide is allowed or not allowed.
And pausing isn't allowed at any point?
-

i can't imagine why pausing wouldn't be allowed. unlike the deadlift, there's no point in a bench press where the stress isn't on your body.
so what rep range are we looking at to be competitive here? i'm going to toss my hat in the ring anyway, but i want to make sure i'm not embarrassed like last time. ;D
-

nope none.. just cant use supportive gear outside of wrist wraps and belts.

haha who knows.. unlike pulling..yesterday I gas'd at 10 reps on 225 during inclines.. SUCKS!
20 or so would probably put you at the top!

Dude, I'm guessing 30-35 or more minimum to put you at the top. 20 should be mid range. The thing that would do me in is breathing, because at some point I'm going to be gasping for air, which will mess up rythm. Thats why I was wondering about pausing on the bottom or the top to take a deep breath if that was allowed.
-
Wolfie will post 50 reps, no problem.
Perhaps a looped video is the answer? :D

well i'm going to set the pace in about 45 minutes. roundabout 3:30 EST expect a video of magoo hitting somewhere in the vicinity of 25 reps. who knows, since i'm doing it fresh, i might even hit more.

MISTER MAGOO'S GUIDE TO FUCKING UP THE BENCH PRESS CHALLENGE
1) start off with a heavy close-grip workout. it helps if you aim for a 3RM, and then immediately afterwards going back to wide-grip to 'feel the weight'.
2) totally mess up your foot and hand placement, but rep out anyway. you'll be a good 8-9 reps under your target, but do it regardless.
3) take a second attempt. don't wait too long either. just enough for the inflated feeling to fade off. remember, this WON'T mean you're back up to full strength, so don't worry.
4) BONUS TIP: the night before, do all your laundry so you have no blankets in your room. assume that because it's may you'll be plenty warm. fortunately you won't, so you'll wake up every 2 hours or so throughout the night.
end result: one shitty attempt at 16 reps, one shitty attempt at 19 reps. video forthcoming. next week i'll try it again.
>:(

eh. depends on your definition of a "good rep". each one was from chest to full lockout with nothing resembling a bounce. however, my butt definitely popped up slightly on a few. judge for yourself. :-\
my head was just not there. i guaran-fucking-tee i can get 25 on a good day.
and in my defense, here's 21. not sure if this one'll count either though.

Lock your arms out ;D

I think your ass came off on every rep, Magoo?
We may be tied at best. :D

what fucks me up is that the bench at that gym is, no joke, six inches closer to the ground than what i'm used to (normally i'm at the gym at my school). i have to completely change my foot placement and i don't have a damn clue exactly where to go. it pisses me off.

How high is that bench at your school? The one in the video doesn't look that low.
Try putting your feet out wider, it'll help with your stability and the butt raising too.
This is completely off topic, but I gotta include it because it was linked to your video. This dude just cracks me up. Does anyone actually know him?

i'll give it a shot next week. i'll put up a vid of the heavier workout and the 225 rep. hopefully it'll work out.
the one at my school was just a few inches higher, enough so that my knees were a hair lower than it when lying flat, and that made it work fantastically. i could push with all my might and my butt stayed down. it's how i hit the 365.

23 on the 22nd of this month, and i haven't done any real meets yet but i plan on it. ADAU meets because it's local, it's all raw, and i have a few friends that have lifted in it.

ahaha, if that ain't the line of the year i don't know what is! ;D
i train raw for mostly practical reasons. i don't have a PL crew, and trying to train fully geared by yourself or with a single spotter is both difficult and suicidal. plus after i dropped 50 pounds nothing fit any more and i don't really feel like buying a whole new set every time i trim down or put on a few, y'know?

LOL. I end up squatting and deadlifting in loose gear by myself from time to time. its amazing what you can do with a hook on a powerrack and some well placed cusswords to get into a looser "training" suit. I also squat with "spud straps" and rarely go over about 90--93% without at least one spotter.
The last meet I was at I saw the epitome of "loner" powerlifter. This one guy came in by himself. Watched the squats talking to other lifters. Then disapeared for a few minutes at the start of the bench press. He apparently some how got into a relatively tight Katana by himself. No help other than to ask one of the spotters to pull the neck down for his 3rd attempt I'm not sure how he got out of it. It was one of the damnedest things I've ever seen to watch him adjusting that shirt by rubbing against the gyms squat rack. The only bench shirt I've ever been able to get into by myself was my old Inzer Denim and once I was in it, I sure wasn't getting out of it without help.
It took him about 20 minutes to get into his deadlift suit, and honestly I'm not sure how he got out of it either, but he did that by himself also. He had one moment of apparent panic when his belt locked up on him and had to ask one of the other lifters to loosen it after an attempt, but other than those two times, he apparently did the push-pull part of the meet by himself.

i shit you not.

youd think that someones wrists would break or their elbows would dislocate with material like that in a bench shirt. Same thing with spinal compression fractures in a squat suit.

give it time. i doubt it's any harder than today's shit, given mendy's inability to touch 1049 in a shirt a bit ago. eventually, limbs will start popping as people put themselves under weights they should NEVER be under.

hm. i should have a spotter on wednesday for it (buddy just got a gym membership in town), so... sure. i'm not sure which grip i'll use. i've got a feeling the ROM bonus from middle fingers on the rings will be good, but i feel stronger using pinkies. meh, we'll see.

Alright. I guess I'll start it off? 5 reps, anyone care to raise?

Im in the lead!
Please excuse the mess. :D
Looks like you had at least 15 more reps left in ya. I'm guessing this is a joke ???
-
put me down for 15-17 reps
-
I totally support this challenge, but based on the DL "contest", entries will be few and far between. Apparently, most Getbiggers prefer posting their rep count to actually showing you their rep count. Either that or videocameras aren't available nationwide as of yet!
Does Magoo's lift count? Can my ass touch the ceiling? Can I bounce? Can I do 'em like Dennis James? A little help here...

Magoo posted another video where his ass didnt come up so he is credited with 20 reps.
Yes, the DL contest may have been too heavy. 405lbs would have had more entries. I think that 225 is something almost everyone on this board can do so more people SHOULD enter.
No bounce. No ass on ceiling. No half reps. We have judges who will count the number of "good" reps.

Everyone needs to remember that you must do something to identify yourself in your vid. Say your screen name or write it on paper and show it on the vid.
-
So how many people have done it and what numbers?
MM i am aiming for summat similar to yourself. Tho i will be doing it after my flat benching on friday. 290lbs 5x5 paused
but i dont know what i iwll get with 225. Could be 15 could be 25 play by ear.

*UPDATE* OUR OWN RON AVIDAN HAS SAID HE HAS ARRANGED TO CONTRIBUTE PRIZES FROM MUSCLE ASYLUM PROJECT, SAN, AND CYTO SPORT FOR THE TOP 3 COMPETITORS!!!
With these 3 companies, ATLARGENUTRITION.COM (http://ATLARGENUTRITION.COM), and PROWRISTSTRAPS.COM (http://PROWRISTSTRAPS.COM) sponsoring this competition, why wouldn't you enter?!?!
-
So how many people have done it and what numbers?
MM i am aiming for summat similar to yourself. Tho i will be doing it after my flat benching on friday. 290lbs 5x5 paused
but i dont know what i iwll get with 225. Could be 15 could be 25 play by ear.
you're guaranteed a spot so far. i've got 20 and L4S has... five. i did my 20 without a spotter and without really pushing, i'm pretty sure i could hit 25 again. i've done it before.
-
whats the point if someone has 20 I can get 12.... :P
-
Id still like to know if wolfy is entering, and if so is he using 225 of 315?
davie

i think him and hoornstra are in the "freak of nature aka professional" category of the contest.

Ok, i'm thinking seriously about this now considering the prizes. Whens the deadline? I gotta find a camera that records digital so I dont' have to fart around with VHS tapes and what not.

Holy shit, you have a VHS camera ??? ;D
Vids must be in before June 1st. Check the rules so your vid isnt DQ'ed.
-
I totally support this challenge, but based on the DL "contest", entries will be few and far between. Apparently, most Getbiggers prefer posting their rep count to actually showing you their rep count. Either that or videocameras aren't available nationwide as of yet!
Does Magoo's lift count? Can my ass touch the ceiling? Can I bounce? Can I do 'em like Dennis James? A little help here...
So you in Juice Monkey or what??????????????? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yeah, it was a wedding gift in 2000. I haven't found a digital camera I like that I think is really worth the money becuase about the only time I use it is for videotaping animals at work. I typically use remote cameras for that anyway, which go directly to a DVR.
I'm a bit behind the times in terms of personal video cameras :-[
-
most cheapy digital snapshot cameras take short videos. i picked up a canon SD1000 for $150 and that's what i've filmed everything with thus far.

Yeah, but the video isn't worth a shit--its all grainy. I've got a cannon A530 and an olympus C4000. The Olympus takes great still photos, but the video sucks in my opinion.

Ill post my first effort on friday.
chest still sore from monday so hopefully im ok by fri.

honestly it's not that bad. if i could upload the fullsize video you'd be surprised.
goudy, i gotta know what you're aiming for. i need to know if i need to pre-empt it with another attempt. ;D
-
this challenge is going to get REAL hot REAL fast after all this progress..what i don't get is why don't people just ENTER and no worry about where they place and see where they fall? there's no risk..no entry fee..nothing.just make a video and see how you do!
-
I did 225 for a double last week. Do I need to post the video or are you guys willing to take my word for it?
-
Not a joke, just trying to get things started. Why dont you enter?
Don't BB bench much anymore, just stick the gay DBs mostly now. Trying to save the shoulders for when I get into old age. :P But if you'd accept DB pressing the 125's for around 25 reps, I might enter (seriously).

doing one set with the bar isnt going to wreck your shoulders.

Good, after alot of success with DC training iv changed to more powerlifting style training. Im about 10lbs of the weight i wanna be (tho wen i get ther il probs want more lol), but after putting on 30lbs over the last 14months with DC, im confident i can get there.Diets pretty unchanged, its just the training that has.
Im almost fully qualified as persoanl trainer,+have qualifications thru rugby union as weight lifting instructor.

Such is the way of powerlifting, haha. What are you warming up with that you only get 12 reps? 315? ;D
-

lmao.. i get tired at 12 reps with 225...but i'd much rather do 315 for 10! why i'm not sure exactly... todays' pressing 225 felt just as hard as 315! GO FIGURE!
-
I've got 235 for 12, do have video, and I'm female, 5'5' and 175@ 16% bodyfat...or you can see me on Reality TV soon, doing powerlifting, breaking records...I can back up everything with pics and video, I know how this site is. No pics or video, it didn't happen. ;D

not that i like to toot my own horn, but i've not seen many people who can hit 225x20 spotless after doing a heavy bench workout. and keep in mind i've gotten 25 before.

Yes that may impress average gym rats, but this site is called 'getbig', you would think a forum with a 'powerlifting and strongman' section full of drug users would have produced a greater score lol, especially when the wrist strap equivelant of a tapout shirt is the reward
Ime not saying ime that strong myself, ime around the same level as magoo.

so pick up a camera and beat me! i'll be going to get the 25 on camera sometime soon hopefully, and if you're on my level feel FREE to take the number one spot.
the same thing happened with the 225 deadlift. everyone said "oh 30's gonna be a snap" and lo and behold only three of us manned up and did it. now you're saying 225x25 is "average", but aren't filming it.
so come on, tough guy. you get $100 in free supplements amongst other things, what do ya have to lose? :D
-
so pick up a camera and beat me! what do ya have to lose? :D
Did you see the kind of shit that happend to squadfather?.. and anyway, i would lose the respect of everyone in the gym if i went in and recorded myself benching for an internet forum, i have nothing to prove and couldn't care less what you think, but its obvious my comment affected you because you just melted down incredibly.
-anyway, this topic has gone way off, this space should be for people who are going to enter a vid, oh yea there isn't anyone. might aswell send the prizes to magoo already.
-
Compares himself to SquadFather.
Believes everyone in the gym "respects" him.
Cant back up a thing he says.
Sounds like a true GetBigger! ;D

hey wicked, how's your "cred" in the gym doing these days? mine's pretty much solid, you'll notice i've even gotten a few people to hold the camera for me. i'd hate to think that in reality everyone hates me now. :(
by the by, excellent work on exposing yourself as a nice little bullshitter. "i could outlift you and get all these free supplements and shit, but i don't wanna." ::)

You think she is natural? No way would these guys ruin Rons reputation by allowing "assisted" people to enter this. Mindspin set the right precedent with the Mr. Getbig contest, naturals only!

i'm sure the "assisted" guys are up front about their usage, they could have a 2nd division maybe? wicked's natural, i'm assuming chris and lift4 are although i've never seen it brought up.

Nothing wrong with second divisions, everyone should get to compete. It's just good to have an assumed natural division considering this site is representing Ron and the contests should be for fun, not for people who are willing to take a few years off their lives for a few extra pounds of muscle.

I must say when I think GetBig, I think NATURAL! ::) ;D

yeah right. you're gonna give me a false sense of security and then put up a video of you hitting 28, admit it. :P
-
lol i wish im in middle of final year law exams and stressed like fuck so not been training oir eating as much.
also ill be doing this after chest workout.
what are the totals so far?
-
me with 20, Lift4 with five. we're it so far. :-\
i'm aiming for 25 tomorrow after all my heavy benching, but i'm not entirely sure it'll happen.
-
I'll be aiming for 50 so I can beat Wolfe! 8)
-
got 21 after my heavy sets. SHOULD have had 22, but the last two inches just would not happen. >:(
EDIT: incidentally, my buddy got 19 (maybe a few less if you knock off for butt lifting), which i think puts him in 2nd if he's in any way eligible, provided few other getbiggers enter.
-
you can see that although my hips lift, my butt keeps contact the whole time. sorry for the people walking in front of the camera though. i didn't have any control over that. :-\

Nice effort on the 22nd rep! You gotta teach me that hip-lifting trick LOL...I love how your ass appears to stay on the bench. ;D
Not sure how the judges can call the reps where the dude is standing right in front of the camera, but I doubt it really matters until you have some submissions that are actually going to turn this into a competition!
Does your buddy have a post count on here?
-
haha, my ass DOES stay on the bench! what's happening is my glutes are relaxed at the bottom of each rep, so when i flex them my hips come up and the Butt Surface Area (BSA) on the bench is lower. so while my hips are higher on the positive portion of the lift, my butt never loses contact. try it just in your chair. relax, then flex your ass. did you lift up a bit? same deal.
hopefully the judges won't penalize me for guys in front of the camera. i couldn't really "plan" for that and cheat when they're in the way, plus you can see the last 7-8 reps fully and my form hasn't degraded, you know?
no, my friend isn't a poster here, but he wanted to try it out anyway just to see if he could keep up. did pretty well i thought.

It'll only be an issue if a bunch of guys submit videos around the 20-21 rep mark.
Is "BSA" official powerlifting terminology? Just checking cuz I'm sort of a noob, ya know! ;)

if you can beat me squatting, i'll be DAMN impressed. i'm lucky if i can hit 15 with 225 on squats.
-
Can videos still be submitted on the 1st of June?
I taking a video tomorrow though ill be training much earlier so ill be weaker even with teh benching.
Honestly if i get 15 ill be ok, dont know what to expect, i think the more you do it the better you become.
If i can still submit ON 1st June ill be taking another video on saturday then.
-
1st is the deadline, so i can't imagine why a video submitted on the 1st wouldn't count.
-
depending how i go i might try fresh on sat.
see im prob going to watch an oly lifting comp on sat so ill be up at the gym neway
-

Yeh it hurt alot doing it lol. It was wen i was doing DC, did one low rep se (after warm ups) of a leg excercise, then i followed it with back squat widow maker.It was horrible, everything ws hurting shoulders arms, i just tried to focus on my breathing and just do a rep after taking a few breathes,sum how i got there lol.
Im actually doing front squats as my heavy lower body move at the mo, but iv put 20 rep squats in as anothe of my leg moves that day, so il film it if i can.
Tried it the other day with 202 and got 22 ok, after max front squat, so needless to say it 2 days later and my legs are v sore lol.

Hello
Here's my vid
I think i did 20 or 21
i think the contest is limited to established members, but otherwise good showing. looked like some pretty heavy bouncing off the chest, and rep 21 didn't lock so i wouldn't count it, but a bouncy 20 is still damn good work.

Yep, i know, i just wanna gauge myself.
Thanks

jesus christ I can stand when people stand there yellin "come on !!"
good effort steve...
I should have taken my break after this and entered
-
alright well I got my first attempt in ony got 18 was kinda suprised how heavy it felt after 12. Im pretty sure that I can get 21 or so my triceps started giving before my chest so maybe doing it the day after arms was a bad idea...here it is its pretty dark and you cant see the weights very well, the next time i will do it during the day so you can see them its a 45 a 35 and a 10...
Im not even sure this will be admitted b/c you cant see the weights very well, Im just posting this b/c I dont know if ill get another chance, im pretty sure I will but I have work tomorrow, maybe a job interview on friday and my friend is in town from iraq on sat. so im kinda interested if were able to submit on the 1st as well?
-
Nice job tonymctones! Im not the judge here but I would definitely pass all those reps. Great effort!

Nice set, sorry they are treating you like a red headed stepchild and dissecting your set and kicking you out of the contest, not all of Getbig are as tough on people as Maggoo and L4S. I think you have until June 1st to get those 100 posts, not sure though. Feel free to go to the E board and bump 96 threads with and emoticon or letter or whatever in the next few days :)
-
A few didnt touch the chest either, sorry. The contest IS only for GetBig members with 100+ posts. The rules are the very first post of the very first page of this thread.

Not very consistent.
If you make a contest you have to be consistent with the rules, if you are going to start applying them.

If you make a contest you have to be consistent with the rules, if you are going to start applying them.
Everyone who entered past May 1st is technically disqualified. I will be very interested to see how this plays out. Who is in charge of this mess anyway? Does Ron even know about this contest? He would never allow people to run a contest and let their "friends" enter 28 days after it closed. Were you contacted about helping run this thing? Or Bluto? I know I wasn't and look what happened. I am going to need some answers on this one, cuz someone fucked up.

LOL it says on the first page that May 1 was a typo and it's June 1.

Lift4Size said the rules were in the first post. Rules are rules. Who is in charge of this anyway? How can something like that, in bold no less, go unnoticed? What if people read the first post and figured it was too late to enter? Typo or not, it was a big mistake and needs to be dealt with.

Rip it boils down to this for me, Magoo, Wicked and L4S are good people and this is a good idea for a contest. But I feel that if you are using Rons site for something then put in the extra work to make sure the thing is done fairly, and done right. I would hate to see Ron ban contests on here because people didn't have time to do a little proofreading to make sure everything was done right. Also, if you need some outside help to make sure things are done fairly, you can always ask Bluto or DP for help with the heavy thinking stuff. Since I like the guys who are putting on this contest, I am not going to bash them, actually I think it's a good idea and has been enjoyable, but next time pay attention to the details, at least the important ones! :)

No time, the contest ended May 1st. Or is it June 1st? I am confused. Seriously though, the bench is probably the only lift I would post a vid of me on doing. I may post one(225 for reps) in a few months, remind me.

Danielson, let me list the facts for you:
Deadline is June 1st, 2008
Chris Mason and Jason Pegg are the remaining judges now that Squadfather ran off
thewickedtruth put this together and the rules are as clear as anyone could ask for
I havent seen anyone "look the other way" on any rules
You need 100+ posts to compete and you need your screen name in the vid (if we cannot identify you from previous vids)
Now stop with the whiny rambling bullshit. :D
-
lol, good work Goudy, but you need a better camera! could hardly see shit there. and quit makin' excuses and just hit it again! i did it twice in one day! :D
so saturday's the showdown, huh? i'm ready. 23 sounds good for me. >:(
-
It was only my camera fone mate. Ill try to get a better one and then zoom in so you see the plates. I can assure you im telling the truth otherwise i would have hit 25 like i wanted lol
Im going to an olympic weightlifting gym on saturday to watch the Northern Irelands so ill use olympic weights which clearly show the weights.
What have people hit so far?
-
Man, your phone is shit. lol. Shoulda used mine. I turned the night function on and it looked bright enough. lol
-
lol i cudnt be assed waiting was fed up cos my benching took longer than i wanted.
aye fones nearly 3 years old lol
if i get psyched on oly weights i def think 23 is a possibility

Chris Mason, Alan, and Yaroni are quite generous and all the credit belongs to them......and that "wicked" guy I guess.

How many reps you think you can get?
I actually thought goudy would get at least 30.
For the amount of 405 benchers on getbig, not many people have entered this lol.

I'm pretty sure I could knock up close to 20. I havn't gone all out on that weight in ages, but always knock up an easy 10 with warming up.
How about you? You'd be throwing that girls weight around!
-
bery deceiving i have not done more than 5 reps on bench in literally a year. maybe more

Good stuff, Goudy! I love your accent. :)

Due to the absolute flawless movement and ease of my 5 reps, I am being credited with 25! :D

all right judges, let me know. my last attempt.

Ha thats my mate talking at the start i just talh at the end...well mumble really.
I dont think ill have another go at all. Too tired and might take a day off...xbox 360 and gtaIV looking a much more appealing option
-
From almost two years ago. Does this count? ;D
I'll try for another entry with 20 reps.
By the way, Zach is strong as fcuk. :o
-
looked like a solid 16 to me. so that puts us at, if i'm not mistaken:
1) magoo - 23
2/3) goudy and tony - 18
4) matt - 16
5) lift4 - 5 :P
non-contestant but still with an impressive showing: bona - 15 to 20 depending on what counted
a buddy of mine: 18 with a bounce and butt-up on 19 (don't have the video up)
anything i forgot?

ahhh no you bastard im gonna let you have it that easy im gonna give it another try now, I got chest tonight so either before or maybe tomorrow morning.

-
ahhh no you bastard im gonna let you have it that easy im gonna give it another try now, I got chest tonight so either before or maybe tomorrow morning.
hahaha, let's have it dude! rock it, i'd love to see one of us hit that mystical 25 mark. the time i did it the first 7-8 reps were definitely bouncy, i'm going to say this was my best attempt with the cleanest reps that went over 21.
haha i'll give my entry on sunday.. we'll see who's the REAL bench presser here! ;D
man, shit in a shoe. guess i'm about to watch my victory fly out the window. man, i hope goudy doesn't try again or there's a chance i'll be knocked out from the prize-winning circle AGAIN. >:(

goudy's shoulder is fucked. if i bothered with practise and time i wudda hit 25 fresh possibly on an olympic bar.
no chance 18 is my final offering. fuck it lol was funneway...lot ahrder than looks
-
Schiza I forgot my camera at home and didnt wanna drive back to get it, are we allowed to submit on the 1st? Ill try tomorrow morning if im not to sore...sucks too cuz i had a great workout tonight.

c'mon wicked, tony. i want to see the last attempts! waiting to know if i'm gonna be in 2nd or 3rd. >:(

arrrgggghhhhh, i just got home its 2:25 in the a.m. and i gotta be up at 7:00, my buddy came in from iraq and I had lunch and hung out with him for a little bit and then helped my friend move for about 5 hours (owning a truck blows for this reason) If we are allowed to submit tomorrow I will try it once or twice after i get off work tomorrow but if not i understand although ill probably try it just for self satisfaction anyways....what happend to wicked? I wanna see your 35+ reps you strong ass mofo!!!!
-
Wicked "range of motion" chickened out? I never took him for the yellow type.
-
he's not huge on benching, maybe it's just one of those things he didn't really feel like trying out.
of course, the alternate possibility is that, since his videos indicate he doesn't train from chest to lockout, really going all out on fuller reps isn't really up his alley. sorta like if you took an APF lifter (even if he lifted raw) and then put him in a competition where he had to go ass to grass.
-
I thought wicked was gonna get his in for sure! ???
Unfortunately, I wont be doing another submission. I am having a hard time with 135 right now. My shoulders both feel loose and I get a horrible pinch in the back of my right shoulder when I bring the bar within 2 inches of my chest.
I should have just done a "serious" vid first time out. Will there be parting gifts? :-[
-
shame, i was kinda looking forward to seeing what wicked was capable of. it IS weird that he didn't at least give it a token shot. if i'm winning with 23, he could have taken an easy 2nd.

What's the official "rep"?
Touch and go like in contest?
I just tend to not go down that far... I'm usually a couple of inches off the chest.
Just wondering what the rules are...

ya each rep had to touch the chest, no bouncing and touch and go was ok.

well a contest isn't touch and go, it's paused until the judge says "press". but for this, chest to lockout "touch and go" is absolutely fine.

Congrats to Magoo then.

alright 2nd and last attempt just did it you have to excues the shorts i just got off work, i tried to film the weights from the side b/c my camera doesnt have a night mode, LOL i set the safety pins in there and didnt check so on the 20th rep i couldnt get it back up and it sat on my chest....Im an idiot hahahah good shit magoo props on the 23 bro your a strong bastard.
iono if this counts or not b/c of the deadline
-
it's 11:06pm, June 1st, central time. so to me that means it counts. far as i'm concerned if it's still June 1st somewhere on the planet the submission is valid.
nice work mang. i dare say your reps are more what people would call "textbook" than mine. 8)

Congrats to Magoo then.

lol, except for the "GOD OF HORMONES" part that's a pretty good impression. :D
and i'm fine with going by the getbig clock. i mean, i doubt anyone's doing their benching at 12:11am EST, but whatever. i really, really don't want to see anyone with a winning video get hosed by technicality.

i dont think anybodys gonna get 24+...lol this was a lot harder than i thought it would be, after about 15 or so my chest and tris were burning something pretty fierce like i said props to magoo on 23.
oh and i forgot about the weight im 205 give or take 2lbs

haha, that's the funny thing. once you hit your "groove" reps 2-15 or so are just easy pie. then the weight feels like it goes from 225 to about 405 near the end. notice how all of my videos save the one i did without a spot end with first a really, really easy rep, then i just get stapled.
and i'll bet you'd have gotten 205x25 pretty easily if we were going bodyweight. probably more.

Congrats guys. Gives a lot of us imspiration to improve our lifts.

hahah way to go for all those that participated..i was going to do my video yesterday but i was out of town camping and brought everything but my damn camera. I'll be doing a rep out with 225 wednesday just to give your punkass (magoo) a run! Trust me.. if you can get 23..i'll have no problem. :P ;D

Just take what you won and enjoy it. You entered, you did the most reps, you earned what you have. The others didn't enter, for whatever reason they may have. Thats fine. You got what you earned, they didn't. ;D
And again, good job. ;)

X2. Although, next time I honestly think that vids should be turned into the organizer at anytime before the deadline and then released on the day of the contest for all to see. If I am not mistaken Magoo did 23 reps early, for all to see. People are going to see that and just say fuck it cuz they have no shot. Good contest though, it kept my interest anyway.

you know i was thinking that the other day when i mulled over the idea of a "getbig PL meet" to pair with the Mr Getbig. record three attempts of all three lifts, put 'em together, send them to a "judge" panel, and then on the day of the "meet" everything gets released.
what were the final standings then?
magoo - 23
tonymctones - 19
goudy - 18
mattC - 16
lift4 - 5 >:(
bona - somewhere between 15 and 20 depending on how much we count. wasn't part of the contest, but still a great attempt.

If I didnt fukc up my shoulders I would have cleaned this shit up, hahaha! But thats the way it goes. I havent been having a whole lot of luck with injuries lately. My low body is doing great but my upper body is taking a beating.
I will put up a vid in a week or two if I am healed....then you all can surrender your half used tubs of supps to me! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! >:(
Just so you know, I tried it one day when this began and knocked out 25 with another 5-10 in the tank. The 5 rep posting was just because I figured it would get people moving....and it did. :)
-
dude, you know what you should do just because i'd laugh my ass off?
do the 225 challenge on OHP. using some leg drive i'll bet you'd get, what, 15 or so?

Want me to? Alright. Let me get my shoulders in good health and I will do both the same day. I have hit 15 with 225 OHP before so I will aim for 20. If I do the OHP first I would expect my bench to suffer a little but think 25-30 reps is still doable. Give me a week or two so I dont tear my shit up any further.
Good idea!

Ha Ha do i win a proze for my small attempt?
how do i claim it?

I just shot wicked an email this evening.
If he does not get in contact with you winners in the next day or so please PM me with your full name, address, a link which shows your placing, and what you want and I will take care of it.
Chris
Thanks Chris!

APT stuff is on it's way out for everyone so far... for those entering into the competition that are not a US resident..allow for a little longer to get things going. Because i'm the one organizing the prizes for the atlarge and apt gear...you'll be hearing from me specifically. Ron will be handling ron's prizes. I'm still getting all things squared away and organized to make sure everyone gets what they have coming and get it RIGHT so people aren't disappointed with anything.
TO ALL THE COMPETITORS OUT THERE! READ THE PRIZE LISTINGS! I WILL JUMP ALL OVER YOUR ASS IF YOU PURSUE SOMETHING YOU DID NOT WIN! THE PRIZES ARE LISTED AT THE BEGINNINGS OF COMPETITIONS! DON'T BE GOING AFTER ANOTHER SPONSOR FOR A PRIZE YOU WEREN'T ENTITLED TO! IF YOU DO SO YOU WILL BE NO LONGER ALLOWED TO COMPETE IN ANY UP COMING EVENTS! CONSIDER THIS A PERSONAL WARNING FROM YOURS TRULY!

as far as the apt stuff...i'm just going to give everyone a kickass pair of wraps for having the nutz to compete in this meet! convict pros for everyone WOO!
JUDGES ALSO NEED TO TOUCH BASE WITH ME AND GIVE ME THEIR SHIPPING INFORMATION!

-
i dont think anybodys gonna get 24+...lol this was a lot harder than i thought it would be, after about 15 or so my chest and tris were burning something pretty fierce like i said props to magoo on 23.
oh and i forgot about the weight im 205 give or take 2lbs
Next contest I plan to get between 20-25!

what's your body weight Matt ?
195-200 ?

It was 180 when I started using M3.
179 by the end of the cycle. :-[
Right now I am on Cell-Tech hardcore and I should be up to 181. When I'm taking things seriously diet wise I am usually between 185-200 and my strength is up too so I will hopefully be 195 by the time of the next contest.

so.... still nothing from muscletech or APT. loving my AtLarge Results, though.
