ok people! never mind! i won't bother posting (or even using), this forum or site any longer. i have been using this site for at least 10 years, and it seems that it has gone from bad to worse! this used to be a chat room and forum when i first started coming in here, and people actually "respected" and were nice to others in here. i see that's no longer the case. i will take myself elsewhere to other sites from now on. i can sense that i am no longer treated kindly in here!  goodbye people!)

ok dudes, i was at the gym again today, hammer pressing, and it's usually quiet on sunday. i was waiting for this bigger dude to finish his hammer presses. he started taking the plates off, so i said, "can you leave them on dude, i wanna try pressing the three plates. he moved over to the next station, but i could feel he was "staring me down", almost like he was gonna size me up to start something. so, i proceeded to bang out my 8 reps with the three plates. ( i only did 2 sets, but he was clearly pissed that i could be as strong as he is.) so, he put on his 3 plates on his station, and started making these loud grunting noises with each rep, like the weights were heavy and he was working them really hard! is it just me dudes, or do us smaller dudes tend to "piss off" the bigger dudes who don't think we are as strong as they are, or who get intimidated when they see we can lift or press just as much or more than they can? does this happen to anybody else at your gym? it's weird, some dudes get pissed, others have said to me, "wanna put more weight on there dude? , that was too easy for you!" is this an ego thing or what? why do some "big dudes" hate us little , yet "strong" dudes?

no dudes, i am not joking. i am 42 years old, 5'6, and 180lbs. toy, thanks for the encouragement, but in all seriousness, i see lots of guys benching and using the smith machine. i see them more using it for sqats, but guys at the gym use it for benching too. i just was wondering how much i actually benched. (that's all.) i'm not really worried about it. i just know that i feel more comfortable benching this way then flat benching without a machine. i know...so i'm a f'ing wuss, but is that reason to bash me?!

guys, i broke a plateau today..(or, at least what i think is one for myself.) i benched a 45 lb plate on each side, a 25lb plate on each side, and 3 5lb plates on each side. my stupid question is this...with the safety bar that rides up and down, how much weight did i actually bench? a guy at the gym told me with no weight on the bar, the bar is roughly about 40lbs. i know for a fact i definitely can't flat bench this much weight unless i am doing it with the bar that rides up and down. but, a dude who was bigger than me did ask me how much juice am i on! he said i was a stronger m'er f'er for my size and age. cool!

dudes, i am finally almost up to the 2 plate category when i am benching. (it's with the safety bar though that moves up and down , not flat bench presses.  but, i got a 45 and a 35 lb plate on each side. not bad, huh? best part is, i am pissing off dudes that are bigger, and when they are lifting, they moan and grunt like they are trying to show off.

some people are born with incredibly high super human metabolisms! i know a few dudes that are human garbage disposals, and whatever they eat just seems to morph into their builds. (they never get fat!) heck, most teenage guys are like this! they start out scrawney lookin and whimpy, then all of the sudden testosterone and nature kicks in and goes into overdrive, and they go from zero to hero physique in record time! i knew a dude like this. one year he was super scrawney lookin, and the next super built! and you consume massive quantities and just get more and more muscular!

hey dudes! i haven't posted here in a while. i just wanted to let you guys know that i am slowly seeing improvement in my training routine and my results. i was doing hammer presses and i had 2 45lb plates on each side, plus an extra 10lb plate, and i was banging out reps and sets like a madman! it felt great! i am 42 years old now, and i haven't felt this strong in a long time! some dude called me a "f'in animal" the other night, and he wanted to know what i was on and how old i was. i used to be the little guy that got picked on all the time growing up. now, i feel good and i am looked up to and respected. i never said i was a bodybuilder when i used this site, but i do like lifting now! COOL!  i have been using 2 supplements i got online to jack up my test levels. one is halosite, and one is called aspartalone. i also suck down protein shakes after each workout now, and eat 2 protein bars a day. (i stopped using the carnivor protein shots by the way). i still need blood pressure meds fo now,  , but i don't need any cholesterol meds!
