Breast Implant damage and lifting

[wilson6]

I was thinking about this yesterday down at the Arnold Expo while Jill Mills was showing me the 300 lb cement ball she has to lift today as part of her demo strength event.

There have been some threads posted where some of you fear doing chest work because of potential damage to your implants.

Jill explained that she has to roll the ball up her chest to get it to shoulder level. She has 850 cc implants and that 300 lb ball rolls over them and/or between them, sometimes "uncomfortably" as she described it and occasionally pinching a nipple along the way.

Thus I figure, if working a 300 lb cement ball up over your tits doesn't result in a rupture, then doing some basic chest work probably won't either.

How are the Arnolds? Is HardIron competing?

Don't know who HI is. Only went to the Expo yesterday and was back/side stage for the prejudging. It was crowded from the get go. Didn't go down today (Sat), way too many people. Have to work the Pump and Run tomorrow at 6:30a. Considered going to the men's night show, but I've seen plenty in the past and sleep is getting more important with advancing age. If I didn't have to get up at 5a, I'd have gone.

Saw DG. Introduced myself briefly in the hall, but I don't think she linked the fat ass white guy in her face to W6.

I'll do another round of the booths tomorrow to see if there's anything new, but didn't find much on Friday. New flavors and labels of existing wears, but not much in the way of useful products, not that there ever was.

Lots of genetically altered farm animals running around, many with Synthol lumps. Both genders.

Man, some of these chicks need to cut back on the tanning bed use. Drugs are one thing, but the alligator skin look just ain't making it. Reminds me of the skin of a 75 yr old woman who spent her life on a Florida beach getting sand blasted by salt water and sand, and cooked under noon day sun.

Nasty.

LOL Wilson - you are truly one of a kind!

I echo the tanning bed comment. What is up with all those people who feel like they NEED to look like they are about to step out onto stage for competition? Do they actually think that they look "ok"? They couldn't possibly think they look good.... but then again, it is a very strange industry.

And unless you have gained a TON of weight since I met you 2 years ago, though you may really be a TRULY WHITE GUY (we are talking PASTY WHITE LOL) somehow I don't think that the words "fat ass" could be used to accurately describe you.

Wilson, HI = hard iron = formerly fitbitch = formerly new@

Wish I could've made it this year, but last weekend really took it out of me.

Pump and run is bodweight bench as many reps as possible and a 5K? Something like that?

I also wanted to add that Jill has never lost a PL comp, and since she hates equipment, alot of her bench records were set raw...even in equipment approved meets. So with or without a bench shirt, she's able to bench press with tig ol' bitties. Nice.

Wilson, under or over (on her, not you)?

Jills look like overs

Thanks for the insightful correction.

A friend went with me to the Expo, and he kept commenting on the "but her face" types wandering around and working in the booths at the Expo. A lot of great bods, but a lot of ruined faces as well. It was his first real exposure to a hardcore bodybuilding crowd, so it was interesting watching his reaction to the Expo. I don't think he'll ever use the restroom at a BB show again - lots of full stalls and one overflowed toilet made him fear the men's room.

A lot of faces that have spent way too much time in the tanning beds. Sure the drugs cause their problems, but the tanned leather look doesn't help.

Also, the trick for restroom use is to get to the front bathrooms outside the Expo Halls. The ones closest to the High Street entrance in the front hallways. No one uses them, knows about them and they keep them clean.

"A lot of great bods, but a lot of ruined faces as well."

Kinda like going to the State Fair, but lots of ruined bodies as well.

Could long term extreme dieting also contribute to faces looking ruined?

"Could long term extreme dieting also contribute to faces looking ruined?"

I don't think so - especially if you keep some fat in your diet year-round. Most of the facial issues had to do with extreme tanning; if you love your face, don't tan it. There are so many bronzing creams available, there's really no need to tan your face. Same with the bod, of course, but the ruin done to a face with tanning is always more noticeable.

Plus, not all these bods had the look of extreme dieting - nice, toned, but not extremely dieted down.
