i ain't too far i don't think. if i started off fresh i'm pretty sure i'd hit 225 for over 20. i'm in the 340-350 area for a single depending on how i feel. there's just that mental barrier when you put a 25 on each side. like going from a 305 bench to a 315 bench.

You can but it takes a lot of Big Macs.. ;D

I used to do the heavy/light route but for me found I was at the gym all the time and my immune system was always low and I never felt like I was recovering.

i change it up every couple of months

if i start to feel run down

i throw in some extra recovery days

I am having the same issue with squats. I know I should be able to and can dance up close to my barrier but nope. I have been trying walk outs to get my mind comfortable with the idea of the weight. Half the time I swear it's all in my head.

Stick another tampon in there and suck it up.  It's understandable though, I remember the first time I tried to squat 135, was brutal!!!!  :D

I'm the same way sometimes, I've psyched myself out before on lifts.  >:(

My goal is 375 flat bench for 1 before summer's over.
My biggest problem is that I have a mental block bringing the bar down to my chest,
for some reason I always bring the bar down waaay to slow and it takes alot out of me >:(

Funny I get that all the time in my job but no. I did not even go over 200 until I left the corp in 90 when I was 22. Used to be all cut and good looking but got tired of the life... ;D It's been a slow march up, plus it's not like I am 2% body fat either, but at 6'3 I still feel thin like. ;D I make the joke to people I started out as a Linebacker size and keep moving closer to the ball the older I get.

i talk with powerlifters on other boards. even when i was 270 i felt small when it was next to guys like tone barbaccio who's about 6'4" and 350 or this fucker named hat who's a legit 7' tall and over 400 pounds.

Lifts have been going a lot better lately but I've had to do abs more and cut back on the heineken.

As much shit as people love to talk about powerlifters being fat, having a little more fat sure makes the lifts easier and recover times better. There must be some optimum level that supports immume function and recovery.

Now.. If I cold only stop dehydrating myself every morning with an assload of coffee.
