downs syndrome...? you guys are good for a few laughs... id like to see these pics of an "asian andy dick"...that is supposed to be me...pretty funny shit...

umm....no... asian ...andy dick? where on earth did you get this...? i never posted a pic...conspiracy theories... marty anderson is my name...is youd like to know...its pretty funny that you think im allex ss ...whoever that is...btw...

JAP machine... im assuming your tiny... youre so lost on training...

yes i squat... though i thought it was obvious that i was referring to max effort...bench press... squat i can do just fine. 500 raw at 190 is right around the corner...

ill be moving back to upstate ny in about 2.5 weeks... well other day i benched...same as usual...but nornmally i throw some "bodybuidling" stuff like db presses to failure. normally with those in there im sore for a good 4 days afterwards...3 days very very sore. saturday i did just bench and...

yeah ive read em...all... still unsure about the bench thing...on regular do i tuck as dramatically as close grip...as in really tuck them in to sides...i thought it was 45 as opposed to 90 degree that bbers use...i thought that constituted enough of a tuck...on reg bench...

no i havnet done speed work...i will possibly add em in. i read a post by jay where he says dont need em necessarily...i think its worth a try though...

hannibal... yeah i guess that is so...maybe its because on flat regular i have my upper arms at 45 degrees...i dotn try to bring them in any more than that....while...with close grips i think about tucking them into my sides... i might try to...tuck em in with regular grip...with is pinky just...

this bench press is embarasssing...bc its just so out of whack...with other lifts... not sure what i can deadlift right now... but i can squat...475 rock bottom with a belt with no problem...and i know i can do 555 within a year...since i havnet been training my squat very hard...until very...

for some reason when i bench ...close grip i feel much tighter...and to be honest i can feel greater stability and tightness in the lats...when i go wider...i seem to lose that feeling of tightness...i like the squashed feeling that i get when doing close grips... lets see if i had to guess my...

btw im about 190 or so.

im not sure why some get so defensive about shirt vs no shirt... obv it makes a differnce...if some gain 100+ lbs with a shirt... i dont make any judgements about whether "not fair" etc. i could care less... about such endless arguments. to me its like arguiing politics or religion...pointless...

tris arent the problem... i can do the same wt close grip as bench press -10 lbs. i close grip with a pretty close grip as well. and no arch whatsover while using a slight arch on flat bench. i do 315 flat...300 close grip. my close grip is ...with my index on the smooth rough border...

yeah i know that is what everyone says... my tris and lats are definately not the problem... i believe that like jay and halbert say...chest is important...im talking raw benching especially...
