I could see that.  IMO for me, bench sux or I sux.  Plus with Ronnie I guess it don't matter! ;D

So many guys say they can do 150's...well in 25 years in the gym..many many gyms I've only seen some use them legit.  In the few gyms I go to right now I'd say maybe a few can do a legit (no spotters) set of 6-8 with the 150's.  200's....BIG DIFFERENCE 50 pounds makes.

I go from the 60s up to the 120s which I can usually do for a working set, but not more than eight reps at that point in the workout.  On gear I figure I would at least be 135s or maybe even the 140s for some clean reps.

Why talk about "on gear" when you could be talking about "with time".  Gear is just an excuse.  I'll repeat it again.  If someone who is somewhat cursed genetically (Layne Norton) can do it you can too.

a few years ago, I witnessed Cormier and Mike Morris handling the 170s for reps of 10 like it was nothing

Nope, they were just training hard. That was the last time I saw Cormier train hard. That was about 3 yrs ago  :-\

flexfan?

yes, i'll admit it again for the final time! I decided to stop using my "flexfan" account a few months ago. I never really liked that handle.

Fascinating.  Yes, I did ask before but I didn't notice your reply.  The flexfan handle was ok in my book.  8)

why is it fascinating?

it seemed too earl-like  :-\

willie - are you saying that Earl would be pleased to take a load of Kevin Levrone's sperm in the mouth?  :-\

i hope not. but if that's what float's his boat, whatever.  :(

earl doesn't seem like a bad guy, just way too obsessed and biased
