New PR

[BigTiger]

I know most of you will probably chuckle with amusement at this, but for me it's a big deal, ha ha. I set a new PR for a one-rep max on the bench press tonight, at 235 pounds! I have never pressed that heavy before in my life.

Good job Tiger, so keep going

A good song for PR's is "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor.

Dude awesome work. Just remember if you max out to many weeks in a row on the same lift you can start to loose strength.

Hellyeah big dog!!! Feels good don't it?!?! I remember being younger and was stuck at 185lbs. Was in a cycle of test and deca and I remember the day I threw that shit up and my boy said "it's time". We put on two plates(225lbs) and I fucking did it for the first time

It was so awesome.

The other day I did 315 for 8 cause I finally had a spot. That felt so good

Anyway proud of you bro. Keep pushing it!!!

The music that motivates me has actually caused laughter among my trainer and lifter friends who find out what my MP3 pumps out while I'm at the gym.

I still have it on the gym playlist on my phone...never fails when that song comes on when I am lifting. That song came out when I just finished high school...and is on the Rocky soundtrack

Great job man schedule light and heavy days always bench with speed explosiveness. Work on incline dumbell heavy and even heavy Smith machine slow reps will get you stronger, make sure you do a ton of accessorie work on lats and triceps for a bigger bench
