Unless there's a bench press contest I joined and didn't know about it doesn't matter how much I bench.

I wouldn't automatically give me first place just yet Esp.

I am in. As Ronnie would say "Let's do this!!!". I am in the same boat. For this challenge the goal is to be exactly 100 pounds less than I was at this year's Arnold.
Best of luck you can do it.

Definitely determined. I have always been the fat guy. NO MORE. I have more spirit than most people half my age. Thanks for the compliments bud. I appreciate it.
Awesome. Thanks Shadow.
Do it Do it Do it. Come on man!
AWESOME!
2nd place? i think someone has been smelling the protan too long!
100? that would be awesome. You can do it if you really want to. When it is said and done, I will have lost that much too! If I can do it, ANYONE can do it!

I have always had the mindset that I wasn't benching shit until I had 2 plates loaded per side. I think that came from my brother being a bodybuilder early in life, and hanging around football players who were obviously stronger and bigger than I was. I have never benched 2 plates before. I know for some of you, that ain't nuttin but a peanut but to me, it is a bench mark of bodybuilding.
Today, I met that benchmark. Totally proud like a little kid scoring a touchdown. Fucking brilliantly awesome to me. Sorry if you guys don't get it. But I felt like I just climbed and tackled my biggest hurdle.
It is amazing what you can push yourself to do when you have a spotter. So, I went to the biggest guy in the place and asked for a spot for my last 2 sets.
Incline Bench press
45/25 135/12 185/10 205/7 225/6 - both pr's
HS ISO decline press
90/12 230/8 230/7 pr
Flat DB press
55/10 70/10 70/8
Peck deck 7's
80x10x7 I can still go another 10 higher on this next time
30 minutes on the treadmill afterwards keeping my heartrate between 135-140, then took a 15 minute steam.
Off to work boys

Nice work on the PRs. I've never been a particularly strong bencher, so I know where you're coming from.
