I was amazed by my good friend Rob Thomas who tried 280 on the weekend and only just failed by a gnats cock to lock it out. At the moment 200kg feels like it will crush me. I must get better ASAP lol. | ||

my buttocks hurt Member 337, 2119 posts SQ 300, BP 140, DL 305745.0 kgs @ 125kgs Eq | Agreed with you on how rampant use of substances appears to be in some gyms amongst the young and/or inexperienced. The product of a culture of instant gratification? Who knows. You seem to like your declines. I'm interested to know why, as I desperately hate flat bench and am looking for any excuse to do an alternative. | ||

I've used the decline press to maintain my upper body strength while allowing my shoulder to rehab. Its a involves a shorter range of motion that doesn't place anywhere near as much stress on the rotators and also enables you to really blast your triceps. Nowadays I only use the bench to warm up prior to board pressing. Board pressing & the resultant triceps strength seem to be the key to benching big in a shirt which is what I'm trying to do. | ||

To many hours spent in work lately so I will return tomorrow night and try again. I put my little 'un through his paces though. He's only twelve but he's mad keen and really seems to enjoy the training. | ||
