Earl,

Not completely fresh.  I do two warmup sets before getting to 225.  I suppose since 225 doesn't feel too heavy for me I could forego the warmups.

Discuss.

PS - LOL @ the smile remark.  :D ;D

   Dude you are obviously very strong on pressing movements,and with good form. You have great delts,which you already know. If you have always done that high volume workout and have not gotten the results you want...what can it hurt to go low volume as someone else suggested? Either way overall you look really good and your strength is impressive.

Thanks guys for all the good words.  As for the bad words - to be honest, it really puts things into perspective for me.  You have to understand that I spend most of my time around people ages 19-24 and to them I'm a big and ripped guy.  Compared to some on here I'm nothing.  This thread really opened my eyes to my weaknesses.  It made me realize I have a lot of areas to bring up.  Although I always knew that, putting it out in the open was a different experience for me.

But bodybuilding is all about improvements right?

Here is a clip of me bench pressing 225 for 16 reps all the way to the chest.  I'll upload more clips as time goes by.  I would like to hit 225 for 20.


good job man.

Great job! I go to your gym and have heard that your training partner has used synthol in his calves.  Discuss.

PS,  keep eating tuna and green beans!

Looking good.

It is time to get rid of that 35-40 lbs of fat though.


What can I do to convince you to start?

just because Matt doesn't have very good abs definition, it doesn't mean he is fat

he is about 12-13 % bf

are you really comparing him with this  guy in term of bf% ?


plus this guy isn't THAT fat, you can see that he has some monster water retention tho

I'm reading everything on here.  It's cool to see it's mostly good.  I figure as long as I'm out there trying my best and keeping a good attitude on the boards, people will respect me.  I'm all about trying to improve myself.  I'm thinking 210 at the same condition I'm currently in would be a good weight for me.  I'm not sure how realistic it is, but I would only need to put on about eight pounds from the max I've ever weighed.

I could do a good five reps unassisted on my best day plus another two or three assisted using 300 pounds.  Maybe next chest day I'll get a meal or two more in before shooting a clip and see what I can do.

Here is a pic of myself at (according to TA) 25% body fat.

If you want to hit your chest more, how about exchanging the flat bench for a slight incline 15-25 degrees.

By the looks of it, your benchpress is mostly all shoulders and triceps. Nothing wrong with that IMO, but if you want to hit the chest, you need to find some different excersise as well.

How about alternating between slight incline and flat benchpress as your main push excersise on your chest day?

Just a suggestion.
