Chaos this is how I do it. I videod them beside 70's at the end to show the difference. When seated at the end you can also set them on the ground one at a time easily also.



Nice lifting Goudy......props bud!

OK, that's how I normally do it, but when I get to the 120+ I just can't seem to bring them back down to my legs like that and I'm not about to injure myself just to avoid dropping them a few inches. Appreciate you taking the video though, cool deal.

As you say "cheers". :)

So I put forth the effort to try this today with the 130's, the left one slid off the side of my leg and ended up on the floor anyway, the right one landed on my leg as planned. Didn't even try with the 140's. :-[

Well like I said, normally I got to 100-110 and sit up that way, whatever reason with the 130+db's I'm just not coordinated enough. :(

I can`t believe Ursus that someone doesn`t know how to get back up from a d/bell bench,i was taught this the very first time i trained back in 1979.Watch this old guy to see what we mean.

What old guy? I just saw the chick in the blue shirt doing sldl with nice form....

I love that environment..the dirty, gritty steamroom. 45s with rust on them, plug stations, dildos tossed in a pile in the corner by the squat racks, head bobs with no words, the crowd around the guy getting him psyched for his  massive ass insertion attempt, cracks in the leather duck taped, earning respect by sucking  hard and heavy even alone and not missing a day for months....bringing a fking tear to my eye.

  Solid strength for any age, impressive as hell for 70!  This old silverback is much stronger than he looks.

Not necessarily true.  You just might need a spot.  I regularly do 110lb dumbbell presses on the bench for 10.  After that 10 I'm so exhausted that I would hurt myself trying to let them down ever so politely for pansies that complain about noise IN A FREEGIN GYM!!!!!
