Old Lifting Video

[webstar]

That's what narcissists do my friend.

Always change the rules so only they can win.

Hanky constantly moves the goal posts so he is the only person that can win.

If i posted my video of benching 435 pounds from 2006, he would discredit it because it was too old.

The video must be taken at the exact point he approves of.

We all know he would fold in half benching 200 pounds today.

Who cares anymore.

100%

Are we talking about Lifting or hairstyles? You guys say I can't press real weight I post a video of me pressing real weight and you want to talk about my haircut. Where is your video??

It's not about what you used to do, it's about what you can do today.

[webstar]

By all means post the video I do sets of 20 with more than 200 now

post a recent video.. someone with a torn pec, torn shoulder you have recovered nicely.

[Les Grossman]

Brian- you are putting in the work- that's all that counts. At the end of the day it's people who actually do shit that get anywhere in life.

Were you wearing a cheerleader outfit when you typed this?

Even Primehomosexual would cringe after posting that.

[TheShape.]

I benched 300 strictly at 150 pounds,that`s a double bodyweight bench................... .not great but credible.

Double your bw on a bench press is great though

I don't need your validation.

I'm quite content with myself. Not all of us need constant attention to make up for our shortcomings in life. You have severe personal delusions and need more attention than a 16 year old girl.

I can still incline press 315 for a few reps. Just have no reason to anymore. Typically only use DB's anyway.

It's Getbig so I wear a thong- I imagine you do too? Cheerleading outfits went out in the 70's Les- you are dating yourself, lol

Thanks brother.

It's not about what you used to do, it's about what you can do today.

Still no camera to post a recent pic, "Chaos"?

[IroNat]

Yeah,but like Brian says "what do you look like right now in a tank top.....those pics are 20 years old"?

My question to Brian is what can you bench these day...that video was ancient?

What`t good for the goose is good for the gander.

[IroNat]

By all means post the video I do sets of 20 with more than 200 now

No one cares, bro.

ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzz............ .....

[bhank]

I don’t do low reps anymore due to a torn pec  what part of that did everyone miss?? I merely posted a video becasue someone asked in a another thread thought it would be fun give everyone a chance to post a lifting video then was just attacked for no reason. Meanwhile no one post any videos just all negativity this waaa supposed to be a positive thread

[oldtimer1]

Impressive if natural. Yawn if enhanced.

[bhank]

It's not about what you used to do, it's about what you can do today.

Says the guy with no current pics by all means post anything new old whatever I just thought people might like to post some lifting videos instead everyone just attacks me for posting one meanwhile in other threads they attack me for not posting one can't win

[bhank]

Also fyi I really don't care what I bench as again I am not an ego lifter this was in response to being called out for a lifting video in another thread so I was like sure fine here is one thinking everyone would be happy for an excuse to share some lifting videos meanwhile its the only lifting video in the thread

[IroNat]

Bhanky,
If you can't bench 350 today like you did 4 years ago you ain't sh*t.
All that matters is now.
Sorry, man, we have to cut you from the team.

Honestly I think I can but I am not going to risk injuring myself to try. I know what I could rep then and I know what I can rep now. Using the one rep max calculator is a lot safer than trying a one rep max. But again I am deliberately holding back to prevent reinjuring my pec that I tore in March of this year I have babied it for 6 months doing high reps slowly bringing it back not going to risk all that progress now dropping from sets of 20 to sets of 2

That 1-rep calculator is surprising accurate (for me at least)...

People live and die by their barbell bench press numbers it seems. I never got much out of it- probably because I have relatively long arms and so am mechanically disadvantaged. I hit 285 and that was enough. So yeah, I'm thrown out of the GetBig club, lol


But for chest development, which I am after, the use of dumbbells gives far better pectoral development. Most likely because I can turn my wrists and place my elbows in a position that feels far more natural. I never get injured using DBs because all that balancing required, plus being able to actually get the dbs in position, tends to limit the weight I use.

You should have let Howard post this for you.

It’s a post that is at his level of stupidity.

[oldtimer1]

One thing for sure the bench press is the most over rated exercise in the gym.  It is also a joint wrecker. Olympic lifters in China don't use it because it leads to inflexibility in the joint making it venerable to injury. One of the greatest Olympic lifters of all time  Lyu Xiaojun won't do the movement because it binds his shoulders. This is from one of the most decorated lifters in history.

I basically stopped using it about 15 years ago. I think it contributed to my wrecked shoulders.  Arnold, Big Lou, Zane, Draper and so many others have wrecked shoulders and had shoulder operations.

yup....just like he says in one of his fits of rage how he could destroy the entire board in a fight and then proceeds to invite anyone to come to kitty hawk and spar with him.  Then when I tell him that's absurd and that nobody is flying there to fight him and instead he can prove to us his ability by challenging a local bjj black belt he says "naw man that's a dick move to just show up and challenge them, plus I'm focused on bodybuilding and getting my legs bigger".

He was never a good fighter and he was never incredibly strong.  His personality is right out of a text book.

Jesus was just trying to let everyone share a lifting video for a little fun and now you want me to go pick a fight with some random. I never said I was incredibly strong but yeah I can bench between 350-400 since I was about 25 years old. I am not going to try now though. I also have done mma and wrestling and grappling  and all that stuff but my 43 year old joints don’t want to do that now. Just like I don’t want to max out now  That doesn’t make me a liar because yes if it comes down to it I am absolutely capable of doing it again. I am 43 but I am as strong and explosive  as I have ever been

Pile driving a local bjj black belt through a Matt proves nothing that is not what you do in a bjj dojo you play it is not Greco Roman training you are not supposed to go 100 and slam people

They also spar at the end of every class but you have to go through an hour of letting some white belt drill shoulder locks on you before you get to roll with the blackbelts Nd I don’t feel like having some white belt twist surgically repaired arm and shoulder  for an hour asking if I can feel it yet no thanks

[robcguns]

I’ve benched slightly over 500 years ago at around 250-260. Now around 215 and don’t care about heavy weight any more I do high reps with 175-205 and feel my chest much better than when benching heavy.

Anyway 350 for 2 is a damn good bench. I say when I see anyone bench 275+ Good form that they are strong.
