Damn, that's a heavy bench you got there. I'm at 155 and I could barely get that weight off the bar.

And eat if ya wanna get big.

if you just started a month ago,then I really have to give it to you. It took me forever to hit 225 in bench. I am slightly more than you in weight, right now about 5lb more (off my peak of mid 150s).

so u never lifted before this one month?

keep up the good work.

[Darracq]

I have lifted on and off for a long time but its been 4 or 5 years since i lifted so i consider it starting over. I have never done squats before this though.

[Darracq]

I am 2 inches taller than you so you can see im pretty thin, The most i ever benched was 225x6 5 years ago and i weighted about 160 then. that is the most i have ever weighted, im 37 years old.

You are looking really strong for your weight Darracq. The workouts really look good. I'd say you'll hit 225 in no time

[Darracq]
