David Romano Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 After one of the saddest stalls EVAH, bouncing up and down between 180 and 195 for like a bazillion months, I finally strict pressed 200 today.Woot!As Brent Kim would say, brb achieving strength levels on par with highschool jv football players, it's fine.Hoping this was mostly a mental hurdle, and the gains will start clicking week to week again.225, Im'ma comin' for you.Beast! nice!Guaranteed with was a mental thing, bro. I struggled hard to go from 185-190 on my bench, my mind was killing me with the numbers.Great job! Just keep pushing and lifting heavy things.... guaranteed to make you feel better! You'll be strict pressing bears soon (I saw the avatar a couple of posts up and had to run with it!) Quote Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

Guest Aomame Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 It was pretty much exactly like that, if by finding the love of my life you mean being heartbroken and by having a grand time you mean being a fun-sucking void of unjoy.I'm sorry you went through that.......... but that made me laugh out loud. I've got people that fit that description and I'm totally using it!! Quote Link to comment
