I finally did it!

[Maximus]

After YEARS of struggling I increased my weights for my chest workout. Only about 5 lbs (from 70 to 75 lbs on the bench press), but I really feel like I accomplished something!

You must feel great! Awesome job!!!! Five pounds is more than 5% so that is pretty cool!

LOL Charlotte! I think I said I pressed 225, as in the leg press. That's true. 3 sets of 10 every Sunday.

I have been so whiny about my chest w/o though. I've been frustrated b/c it's my weakest body part & every Wednesday I come home from the gym feeling a little sissyish. Yesterday I felt very macho. :+

 

[toastythemosty]

Your so amazing Maximus! You inspire me all the time! No one will ever call you a sissy cuz you scare me, girlfriend!

GREAT JOB MAXIMUS!!! you did accomplish something, a lot of people would have given up in frustration, it takes perserverance and determination to acheive ones goals so take a lot of pride in what you accomplished!!
