DAMN!!!
HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH???

My darling husband can barely do the bar! I laughed pretty hard at that. Thankfully, I don't go for muscle-y guys at all. . .or "bunchy", as I refer to them. . .like the scrawny geek bodies myself. . .what was the question again?

Did I say anything about lifting me? NO

I don't know what my max is, but I can pretty easily do my weight which is just under 150 lbs.

Typically I lift less weight with more reps as I don't want to add bulk only tone.

Hey, Paisley... you can really suck down the Nitrogen when bench pressing.

IceNine said:

I dont bench press!

I haven't done it in a long time, but I could do 175 at one point, I think. I'm out of the loop now, though, so don't hold me to that.

Are you asking for a 1-rep max or what is the maximum weight one uses when doing the last set? I have a 1-rep max of 305, but usually finish my sets with about 5 X 255. I must have a mental block, because I have never hit 315. I have done 3 X 290 several times, so you would think I would be strong enough to hit 315 once. Just haven't got it yet. This year I will though! Even though I said that last year, too...

Paisley said:

Well... you can still use Nitrogen!

IceNine said:

Leave me alone

Paisley said:

Come on... just try it...

IceNine said:

No, I told you I'm innocent.

Paisley said:

What would I have to do to convince you to try a little whiff of nitrogen???

IceNine said:

There's nothing you could do or say to convince me to do that.

Paisley said:

Come on... breathe with me...

In... out... in... out...

:LOL:

Paisley said:

I have a question for you Paisley. Actually, I have several.

1. Do you know what nitrogen is?
2. Did you graduate high school?
3. Did you have chemistry, or earth/space science at all?
4. Do you consider yourself smart?

I only use 40 pound dumbells

ufoclub said:

That's it?

I use to bench 125 in high school... for a chic

I was told that was pretty good. I remember when

I first started lifting I squatted 75 pounds repititously

and the next morning I woke up and couldnt move.

I had to stay home from school!

I wish I was still in shape to lift like I use to!

Damn, you go girl!

I think it adds up to 90 pounds total... but I'm just a little short wee lad of 5'6" and 28" waist... and these are dumbells... I used to bench more on the barbell, but I never have a partner to spot.

but I do have a nice proportionate muscular body. very little fat, good overall shape.

there are guys who bench a lot at the gym i go to, but then they're chests are huge and the rest of them is underdeveloped in comparison. so they look like a bit silly.

I think thats it more about getting your body into perfect proportions (thigh to chest ratio, etc) and looking good in clothes and without.
