| I dont focus on gyms, the actual weight of weights, or getting any bigger. I just keep on running, keep running. All I want is fitness so I can run around a football pitch and just, keep on running. Keep running. | ||||||||||||||

| I'm 6'2, and I weigh 235 pounds. I'm about 20, 25 pounds overweight, so if I was slim I would be a solid 210-215 I've been lifting on a fairly regular basis since shortly after my 19th birthday (I'm 25 now), so it's been a slow climb up. Like I said, I cant do quite as much anymore. I definitely can't bench 275 anymore, but I still do a couple of reps of 225. I usually don't have a spotter, so I don't push it too much. I can do 4 comfortably without a spotter, probably 5 or 6 with a spotter, whereas I could do 8 without a spotter before. I used to do legs too, but I kept hurting myself, specifically my groin. Maybe my form just wasnt right, or I wasn't stretching enough, but I got tired of pulling my groin and cut it out of my routine. I know that's not good, but oh well | |||||||||||||||

| I'll let you know when I get up to curling 100 on the bars lol. Before I hurt myself I was up to 170 on the bench. That is about the same as you doing 225. I have no idea what I can do now. | ||||||||||||||

| I've got a couple of years on you though. If you keep going, you'll be able to do as much as me, maybe more. Height doesnt make that much of a difference. Some people are genetically stronger than others, but I've seen smaller guys putting up a lot more weight than me | |||||||||||||||

| True, but you do have an advantage lol. My arms would likely snap in 2 before yours would lol. I had been working aobut for like 6 months before I got hurt. Then was out like 8 months. I have been back a month now and It is cool to see gains that fast. I can't see me ever benching 275. I think even if Icould I would be scred to do it lol. it would crush me like a bug. That would be like you doing 350! or more. | ||||||||||||||

| I run every so often. I like to hit the b-courts, until the black kids invade and whoop me. Exercise should be something you do, not something you kill yourself over. | ||||||||||||||

| Ida, your height is actually an advantage when it comes to the bench press as you have a shorter plane to travel than taller guys. If you keep at it and eat properly, your numbers should shoot up through the roof. The bench has always been one of my weaker lifts as I have such a long way to go from the bottom to the top of the lift. At one point I was up to 245x3 for sets, but I'd say that right now that number is probably a bit lower b/c I took some time off this spring. Damn D, we're pretty equal in terms of size. I'm 6-2 and currently weigh 205. | ||||||||||||||
