krustus bench progress

[krustus]

man the tbol, npp, masteron cycle is kicking ass... i work out alone so no forced reps and no spotter. but my last bench workout was 295 5 set of 5... and also did a triple with 315.. i know a lot of people can do that or better but for me this is awesome... workng out by myself, i got to get the reps if i unrack the weight, so i wasn't gonna try anymore than that right now..lol

That's really good bro, what's your weight at now? I have pretty long arms so I never had much of a bench myself, at my best I was doing 315 for reps. I hope to get back there but my shoulders seem to do a lot of the work so I hit my machines to isolate better.
BTW I saw the pic you posted and your making some great progress, going off the pics you had on BOP.

thanks fox.... i was 208 at the docs (fully clothed and work boots) about 2-3 weeks ago. so probably about 195 buck naked...lol. i got average build and arm length but my bench has never been great....

my chins have also progressed great too... i have been doing sets of 5-7 reps with a 45lber strapped to me

Fuck ya bro 315 is impressive for anyone thats good solid heavy weight right there! Good job keep up the progress.

This is exactly right bro never judge your yourself by what others are doin dont even look at the numbers really just as long as your steady puttin plates on instead of takin them off then be proud and keep killin it brother! Good work!

 

[CB1]

Great work bro. You have made progress you should be proud

 

[smoove]

If it was 225 and a new record for you, it's just as big a deal as 315.
315 is a huge achievement excellent work for your age bro, truly excellent. 90% of the time I workout alone and use the smith for this. I can lock it in at anytime or it has spotters I can lock in. It's perfect when doing failure reps

 

[lith56bigguy]

You're getting me fucking pumped......

I love a success story.....

Awesome work bro keep killin it.....

 

[krustus]

thanks for the words bros.... 315 for multiple reps has always been a goal of mine. i would love to be doing all my work sets at 315 or above one day.

dont discredit yourself because theres people that can do more weight. cant really compare yourself to others. reality is someone is always going to be stronger then you. thats alot of weight you ve worked hard for...good job!

Its not about a number bro its about what you get out of it. I myself got 395 this Tuesday. My goal is 405 before my shoulder surgery dec 18th. Its only ten lbs right??????? Shit that 395 felt like a semi coming up off my chest and I think I plateued. Just have fun. Im trying lol stay positive

Ya dont pay attention to the numbers.. are you a bodybuilder or a weightlifter? I wish I looked like my numbers in the weight room reflected. But thats where the bodybuilder vs weightlifter comes into it.
