A friend of mine his son plays football for Tulane..This is his 3rd season there....Two yeas ago i was invited to watch the team train with the weights...Well,big mike told some of his team mates that i could slam down some reps with 225 on the bench..Which i can....I have built alot of strengh in my years and not just power..
the story goes on i ended up benching for the team more or less showing them young breeds what a old pug like me can do...I hit 60 reps with 225lbs...Not a big deal...I hit this all the time on burn out sets towards the end of all my benching...if not 225 i will use 275 for 30 reps...The team was amazed an the coach was amazed himself..Anyway,just a wile ago i get a phone call from my friend and asked me if i wantted to go watch the team lift agin next week...He siad they been asking about me ...So i told him why not...It was a good experiance...hell i ate for free and got a few t-shirts out the deal...Nice t-shirts...So,im looking forward for a repeat because i allready know there are expecting me for a rep out.....and i will give it to them.2 years older and still in the game.dw

That's awesome DW. You may not know this but I think the NFL combine record is only about 53 reps so I'd say 60 was a big deal.

Bust out the jock strap and the bucket!!! Show them young guns how to REALLY SQUAT!!! ;) 60 reps at 225 is mind boggling bro... its unbelievable how much power a guy can build.
