    Not exactly what I think of as lifting music, but defiantly some big numbers.


    Nice!

    Thanks dxiw
    I appreciate the positive comment.

    I purchased my bands from Liftinglarge.com

    Here is a link to the bands

    I use the #5 Band Large inthe videos for Reverse band Bench Pressing.

    hey thanks for the link. I'm a little confused - the "large" band says 60-150 pounds of resistance? Does that mean your bench is 535 at lockout and 385 at the bottom?

    225lb @ 17% bodyfat, currently cutting
    Current lifts while cutting (all raw): bench 275x4, squat 365x8
    Estimated current maxes: 300 bench / 450 dead / 450 squat
    Competition / Gym PRs (from March 08)
    Bench: 325 raw / 385 loose shirt
    Deadlift: 450 raw ADFPF 04/26/08
    Squat: 405 raw

    The single went number one in 1988.... I didn't realize it was that long ago, but I was still only about a year off. Sorry I'm not up to date on the Beach Boys.
