    Default FBG's Charge to C-Bus

    Ok boys (yes only one man in the competition) and girls,

    I am throwing my hat into the ring. This works out well for me because the plan is to do a show next year and this will set me up nicely. Good luck to all and look forward to exchanging ideas.

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

    Ok I have been talking with my guru and we will be putting the pieces in place over the weekend. Trying to get hotel accomodations squared away now but cant decide how close I want to stay to the event.

    FBG, I'm a Columbus native, still have family there. It's going to be expensive to stay close to the convention center. If you have a car when you get in, Staying south of downtown is cheaper and still only 10 minutes from the site. There are motels at the south interchange of 71 and 270 for cheap. Days Inn, Travel Lodge...those kinds. They would be listed in Grove City. Downtown is 10 minutes from that interchange.

    Not at all. Again, 10 minutes from the convention center. There's a exit for it that drops you right behind the center.

    Thanks for the info. Looks like we will have 3 guys splitting the room so that will be nice. Doesn't really have to be much more than a place to sleep as most of the time will be at the expo or working out.

    Elbows have cleared up so will be hitting it hard starting next week. I hope everyone has enjoyed this little time you have had to imagine you could possibly win. Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Watch out Daryl Dawkins...here comes the real Chocolate Thunder!!!!

    Ok it felt good to get back in the gym after a layoff of a few weeks to let the elbows heal. Still feeling a little bit of pain but that comes with the territory.

    Bench press: 135x10( warmup 2 sets) 150x5, 175x5, 190x5
    Incline DB press: 5 sets 50x10
    BB rows: 5 sets 135x10

    I am going to do the Wendler 5/3/1 system and was just trying to get myself back in the groove so went light with the weights. Also using my EFS elbow sleeves for the first time so that was a little different. My right elbow is still tender but will work thru that. The Arnold contest is going against a little of what I am working toward which is a powerlifting meet in late March and April. I still want to do a show so losing the weight slowly is the best plan.
