If I remember correctly, you are fairly new to the game. Nice numbers to start with and you've got nowhere to go but up! Keep at it bro!
I'm no benchin machine myself bro but 330 x 4 is nothing to sneeze at. Are you "just training" or are you trying to prioritize your bench?
Haha! It ain't embarrassing if your in the gym workin on it! What IS embarrassing is the lady that came into the gym the other day and said she wanted to win the fitness challenge they are having at her office. Then she rattles off 10 excuses about why she can't train hard and says she doesn't want to change her diet! I wanted to pimp slap her... but I figured that wouldn't be very good for business.
Why the drop off in just 1 year? I am currently 32 and so far my best strength was around the age of 26 or so.
Strongman stuff is fun! but remember if the big 3 go up then you are getting stronger! Don't neglect them... especially the deadlift! Many comps have some sort of pull in them and sometimes it's for max weight.
Again, numbers to work with bro! How old? What type of training are you doing?
I have no advice for 300 pound monsters on the verge of getting a Pro Card Keep at it bro! What's the next show? Florida? Hartford?
161 and a 320 bench! You should have p'd before hand just to nail the double bodyweight! Awesome bro! I have yet to achieve a dbl bdywt bench, nice job!
A training crew can make a HUGE difference! wish I had one here. I have to rely on myself for motivation, assessing weak points, etc. Makes it a bit harder for sure.Just doin' my thing.

I know all to well how this story goes!! Sucks! Good work on the PRs though and just keep grinding it out.
3 plates is a BIG milestone man! Congrats! I still remember the first time I hit 315 like it was yesterday. And back then I figure NO WAY I would ever hit 405 (which I have now done on a few different occasions). Keep pressin'! Next goal: 365
Nice bro! Since you compete in gear, does the weight "feel" heavy when you are going raw? Just curious since you've got some big equipped numbers... I wonder how it feels to go back to raw.
300 x 2 seems like a very close 315
and 405 x 6 would be a pretty close 455... maybe 3-4 more weeks. Nice work!Just doin' my thing.
