this is something i enjoy conversing about although most people here don't lift. anyone who does or who is interested in doing so, feel free to converse |
|
|
Haven't been to the gym in weeks, but what's your bench press. |
|
|
been on vacation and haven't had much access to weights besides a few Dumbbells in select hotels.
After I come back I'm lifting as much as possible. |
|
|
bench press: hit 200 for 6 yesterday. the goal was 8, and i feel capable of doing it. didnt take my creatine that morning, and accidentaly warmed up with 150 rather than 160. under better circumstances, i think i wouldve gotten 8 reps |
|
|
@ale just do some pushups situps and wall sits then to at least maintain a lil bit |
|
|
question: So say a fixed barbell says 30, does each weight weigh 30 or do the two plus the bar weigh 40 |
|
|
not really understanding the question |
|
|
meant 30 not 40
so fixed barbell is it:
30 bar 30
or
10(?) bar 10(?) |
|
|
what youre asking literally makes no sense to me. if a barbell is "fixed" at 30, although ive never heard it referred to as such, then the barbell is 30 lbs and every plate you add on adds to the total weight. |
|
|
When did you first start? (Young age I assume) |
|
|
i started at age 12. missed several months due to a broken leg and a few months during football season freshman year due to a lack of access to a weight room. |

Who the hell starts lifting at 12 lol. You've BARELY hit puberty at that age. |
|
|
i hit puberty earlier than others also its not uncommon for serious athletes to start lifting in middle school |
|
|
|
|
Most people that lift start lifting around 12 or 13 lol... |
|
|
And I personally hit puberty at 10
|
|
|
I began puberty at about age 12 and began lifting around age 14 lol I guess I'm a late one
My bench max (yes roast me ALL YOU WANT doesn't change anything) is 185, squat max 355, power clean max (yes roast me ALL YOU WANT doesn't change anything) 165
|

|
I can't even do a squat without my knee making cracking/popping noises which discourages me to do them |
|
|
"I can't even do a squat without my knee making cracking/popping noises which discourages me to do them"
What's your current squat max |
|
|
Haven't tried one yet, I'll try one when I get back to STL |
