Nice job Mac. I think there's plenty if potential in the 40 age bracket
Congrats MacGiver. A nice lift...and great experience.
Already congratulated you elsewhere but again: nice job.
I weigh a lot more than you and I will never bench anywhere near that.
See you in the squat rack.
Nice lift Mac.
Good job bro. Very Nicely done
Strong lift brother. I hope to hit around there soon
Congrats Brother!
Thanks guys!
If you would have dropped down to 198 where would that have put you place wise with that bench?
I would have taken it in 198's and likely won the meet as well. The whole thing was a last minute decision to do. (only 3 weeks prior). I had not even been lifting heavy as I was recovering from several nagging injuries. I basically got 3 workouts in prior to the meet where I went over 315.
That said, I am not really a 'bencher'. At least never considered myself a good one. In a full meet I would have wiped the floor with the guy that beat me. You can just tell a guy who that is all they do is bench. My strength is pretty well rounded and I dont have any weak lifts, but no stellar ones either. (Mid 1500's @ 198) I'd rather be solid all the way around then a one trick pony.
Looking to do a few sanctioned full meets some time in the coming year. I just have to make sure I am in the right phase of my training. (I like to diet down sub 10% just for looks and when I do, my strength goes to crap). A few weeks of food in me, and I am ready to push weight again.
