Re: The weight lifting thread.

hey guys. AlxAmg you have an amazing story, benching 510lbs is crazy, plus a tone of leg press.

and matt, currently i bench 210 lbs or 95kgs, 8 rep per set for 3 sets. I don't really work on my legs cause my knees are injury prone. For me the weight gain isn't as important as strength gain, but yeah my weight has been leveled on 79kg/174lbs for about a year now. i am 5'7" but i was a fat kid to begin with, so i am always around 70kg even before going to the gym. I don't take any protein or other supplements, i just eat normally, imo eating right is more important than taking supplements.

When u say you have reached the physical plateau do u mean u cannot gain more weight or u can't really increase the weights u are lifting? For me when i reached the plateau i will get a friend along with me in the gym to help out so i can push myself that little bit more without killing myself. I try to do more weights with the same reps, it works for me, not sure if it works for you.

one last thing, how often do u go to the gym?
