Back In the 100lb Dumbell Press Club. Wooooo

[Vince G, CSN MFT]

So last week I mentioned that I started back doing dumbell presses and only got 90 for 2 reps and someone mentioned it was likely my form.  Well, looks like was correct.  Practiced form with 20lb dumbells before I attempted it again and I got that shit up.  Bones were creaking but it went up...laid in the floor for 10 minutes afterwards

55lb -12 reps
70lb- 10 reps
90lb - 5 reps
100lb - 2 reps...almost 3 reps

Good job Vince.  We’re always giving you shit but you’re in there training so good on you man, gotta give you some credit.  You have some muscle so why not do a cut?

The word is had. Vince had some muscle.

This is as dramatic a physique change as Marty Champions. Vince is looking as rotund as Onlyme.

I thought the Goodrum weight is out of control thread was an obnoxious troll job but it might be a legitimate warning.

It is saddening watching this happen.

As fat as Onlyme???!!!.  Oh shut ths fuck up

Vince you are right.

Not as fat but in comparison to what you were as opposed to what you weigh now. It's the same as Keith posting his old pictures in shape in comparison to his later days.

The last couple of years you've always had size with some fat but in the picture you posted you look very heavy, especially in comparison to other pics you've posted. Im not trying to be disrespectful but I was caught off guard by the change.

I didnt mean to be so offensive and I do apologize.

I hope you achieve your goals.

[IroNat]

Good job, Vince.

I would caution you about posting bodybuilding related content on this forum however.

Please stick to miscellaneous nonsense.

Looks very large and intimidating. Only the converse shoes reveal that he is a cuddle bear.

I can’t see the video cause no Instagram but I will say I have used straps a couple times in. My life to press’s dB it felt awesome being able to grip the bar so hard,I was definitely stronger when I tried them.

Dear Marty. Are you talking about wes when you say "wasonlycocks" ?

And I think Melvin is a top, so his anus might not be so loose and extended as you suspect...

I never needed straps and I would row 200+ dB so you are pathetic.

Rob, as you are of elite status, never give sub 100 gimmick accounts any of your time.

Did 1 hour of weights w little rest followed by 1 hour ruck this am.   

[Soul Crusher]

There is no reason at all at 40+ years old to be doing this.   Think more reps with compound movements, think sweating and getting that heart rate up. 

You want to think about being able, capable, and functional for daily activities.  For example - cool you bench 100 lb db - but if you are gassed the f out like that fat bastid Kamali after 10 seconds of actual exertion, what the heck is the purpose of this? 

Awesome job in the gym.  But if your goals are to get back to where you were, doing the same things when we were 25 is not going to yield the same results at 45.

That's not how straps work. For a better (harder) grip use chalk.

Maybe you benefited from the slightly additional support the straps gave your wrist. In that case you'd gain far more benefit using wrist wraps.

Maybe you benefited from the wraps making the bar slightly fatter. In that case you'd benefit far more using something like fat grips.

Any way you frame it. Lifting straps for pressing = retardation

I counted 9 very strict reps with the 100's. Impressive Coach.
Plus, you still look pretty  lean.

By comparison ,I look  like a f'n white whale , that worries about getting harpooned in the gym.
