225

How I pictured Huddlers before this thread 



How I picture them now

Much more beer belly.

Think dad bod... for example:

when i was 22, 14 reps was my best

now that im 32 and lift once a year...2 or 3 times on a good day....i always got at least 1 rep of 225 in me

[Ivan The Awesome]

Back in my prime I could press 2.25 burritos .

Damn, Huddle is scary.

6'4" and 200 and I bet I couldn't come close to a single rep. You can probably tell what kind of shape I'm in.

When I benched 285,  I was 6'1 and 220lbs.  Now, I'm 204lbs and focus on lower body and cardio.

I'd guess about 15 reps, and I'm almost 45 years old.  I'm good for maybe 2 reps of 315.  poo gets heavy quick!

Almost 45? Depending on the circumstances, saying almost 45 is terrible, sometimes its nice and can prove a point. 

Hows that TRT treating you class of 1990?

 

spoiler- speaking from experience. Ha

How many of you can do a single 225 bench press?

 

Now only about 16, but I am weak now.

When I was in college I did 29. But I am also 6'11, 420lbs.

And because people are asking for pics or w/e.

I'm one of those "Naturally" strong kinda guys. I don't lift, but the other day when the wife's truck broke down I carried it home. I once carried a piano down three flights of stairs.

I am also swift of foot. As I can run multiple yards in an extremely short period of time. And am also able to run across a swimming pool, saving precious beer fetching time.

I can please the wife, breakfast, and watch the game, all before I get out of bed.

Remarkable, and extraordinary are just a few adjectives that have been thrown my way.

I'd imagine "full of s--t" gets thrown out there a lot too :)

With dumbells  if you know better.

This is true, I will concur....if you had to pick one.

 

Switching between press with the bar/bells as your body adjusts (6-8 weeks) and between reps vs. weights is far superior to either or.

Sounds like a good way to keep pushing at the gym. Id do it but I'm slightly older than the Snapchat generation. Facebook came out when I was a junior in college. 

[Stone]

Best for me was 17 reps when I weighed 240 in college.

I think overall there are a lot of people that can match heavy lifts of pro athletes. It is the weight they lift combined with a 4.4 forty and a 40 inch vertical that is rare.
