Never understood the allure of lying about your dick size to other guys.
Seems a little suspect.

focusing on the negatives...1 second up, 2 seconds down My last set is usually something like 195. Every 3-4 weeks, I'll change it up, decrease reps and move the weight up to 225. |

don't really use the barbell for bench, but w/ dumbells i can do 75lbs for 12-15. I don't go much higher since i usually don't have a spot.
pull ups i can do w/ a 45lb plate about 15 for 3sets dips i can do w/ 2 45lb and 1 35lb plate for 2sets of 12. I gained hella weight when i went back to hawaii so i'm 185 now. but I was doing about teh same weight when i was 155 6-7months ago, which kinda sucks. 5'10" 185lbs

If you want to get bigger then you need to lift heavier. Put more weight on and do 6-8 reps each set. Also eat shit loads of protein and don't skimp on your carbs either.

Excellent advise. Negative reps are killer for really improving your strength. Size will come with it but I don't see that as much of a bad side-effect haha. If you wanna get kind of extreme with it (this is for semi-seasoned lifters), you can well...say you're benching. It's a weight that is obviously to heavy for you to push up on your own (probably 5 or 10lbs past your hardest full push). You get to people to spot you on either side. They basically lift the weight up with/for you. Next comes the hard part, you have to bring it down by yourself. Obviously the 2 spotters should stay put and help if it's needed but it should be mostly you. There is a TON of danger associated with doing this because it can seriously tear things up if you don't know what you're doing. This is also usually a cap to an exercise as a last piece of a chest workout (since I used chest press as an example) and should only be about 2-4 reps. Long post but I thought I'd throw it out there... |

on the contrary to the above post... another good negative chest workout is to go medium weight and to have your spotter press down on the bar on the negative as you fight it then explode up. my training partner is in the military and they do tons of resistance training.

Benching more than the bar for me is potential suicide.

Single rep max bench press is not a great idea unless you are in a power-lifting competition. Way too easy to blow a pec. We used to train with 315 for 6-8. Dumbells are where it is at. My PR with dumbbells is 125 for 6...I thought my head was gonna pop. This of course was like a lot of others here in my hay day when I was training heavy. At this time I was 5'-6" and 203 and about 12% body fat.

5-6 @ 203. Woaaa u were a ball of power.
Yeah im 6-2 230 and my max as of last week is 300 flat for a 1 rep. It went down alot, my routine used to be flat bench twice a week, but now I have alot more incline in there instead. more for looks and definition. My squat and deadlift are my main concerns now. |
