    Here I go again with the used to but...I could do 325 once and 275 x 10. I could squat 385 x 10 and 430 x 1. Shoulder presses with 205 for reps. That's about all I remember. My knees always get to me before my squats get up there. They did in my 20's too. I am doing box squats now. I seem to be able to keep the pressure off my knees with them. The knees usually start feeling it in the 250 range. We'll see what happens this time. My left elbow gets bad quick when I do quite a few lifts. Just doing the lifts I have has been good. The pain is gone for now.

    Okay I am 235#'s now. I want to get to 200 by May. I probably have 165 pounds or so of LBM so at lot of fat. Starting at 2800 calories or so. The macros are not where they should be yet. The diet part is just starting. I was eating so much crap it is unbelievable.

    Take it slow, it will come back pretty good. I am weak as hell, but look strong. I am not sure that's a bad thing. I can hardly shoulder press 135, bench 225 maybe once, and squat 275 for 2-3 reps if I am lucky...deadlift I got 425 once when I was eating all the time! A born puller.

    With that big pull you should be able to bench more. Don't you have shoulder problems? I finally warm up enough and don't let my form go. My shoulders got hurt many times before I did that.

    I don't feel comfortable coming down all the way to my chest, that's for sure. I stop 4-5" up. I have nothing to prove so I don't push it too hard. I might be able to do more if I had a spotter, but I am a lone wolf at my gym

    No spotter? No problem. On heavy barbell I use the Smith Machine or power rack with side bars, on heavy dumbells I just drop the mothers.

    Ohh one thing Bob, (is that your real name bob) you need to venture into the PIT, if you got balls. The PIT is like NY if you can make it there you can make it anywhere!
