Who here believes this...

[Bullit]

Nav says he can do 2 sets of 20 @225.

WTF.

I call bullshit on that one nav.

linkeroo

 

[big_bad_buff]

that's really not that hard to do

 

[Bullit]

that's really not that hard to do

Have you seen navs pics????
And, actually, yeah..its is hard to do.

I mean he says himself that he isnt really interested in strength.

 

[Citruscide]

I've met Nav in person... I think it is entirely possible.

C-ditty

 

[Y_lifter]

If you could do 20 reps with a certain weight,
why not up that weight ?

I always pictured Nav as one of those long haired wirey Meth middle aged rock'r types..

You pictured that cuz thats what his pictures look like.

I mean I aint saying he's weak... but 2x20@225 does not jive with his pics.

 

[big_bad_buff]

where are is pics?

 

[sh4dowf4lcon]

I believe it, but I cant believe my Karma is dead. dammit

 

[Citruscide]

He wasn't a small guy in person bro. I met him probably a year ago... and I'm pretty sure he's added some size SINCE then. To say he's benching 225x20 isn't a far off feat.

I mean, it's not like he's saying he can bench 400lbs, you know. It's only 225.

There is a guy at my gym, I train with off and on, who plays for the XFL off and on. He is only about 220-230 and can do 315 for 22 reps. So its entirely possible. You guys get so silly with your disbelief in other peoples strength. There are alot of strong guys out there, who can do amazing things.

LMAO@ "only 220"
A lean 220 is a fucking BIG guy.

Damn you guys have a warped perception.

What you weigh nav... I thought you were around 160-170 ?

 

[Deleted member 33117]

Not that big, I'm 5'9" 216 with abes right now.

 

[big_bad_buff]

I'v had a 300 pound olympic weight set since I was like 16. and 1 of my friends(who never worked out) would always do 3 or 4 sets on the bench when he came over. well, within 6 months he was benching 225 for 15 to 20 reps, and maxing out at 275, and he was about 5"11 170. never got bigger from it, just got stronger

 

[Lestat]

I'd like to see two sets of 20 @ 200lbs.

Trust me... in the real world its big.

Maybe not to a bunch of juiced up apes, but it is fucking large.

20 is tiring, I would burn out.

2 sets of 12, yea. 20 and my chicken arms would give out. For someone else I don’t see 20 being an unreasonable number.

Well, this is a bodybuilding web site, not the real world. I had a guy stop me in the parking lot the other day when I was in shorts and a tank top and go "Holy shit man... your huge!", but I don't expect to get that reaction from other bodybuilders.

Yep...I was telling spatts the other day that it's great to work with normal people. I was talking to someone at the office about my lifts, and I said "well, my bench is my worst lift; it's only 225" and he looked at me and said,

"You bench 225?!?"

It's all relative...
