Hi! I'd like to know about how strong you are! Not to know who is the strongest, but you know, to compare and talk about how incredible some people are! Personally, I curl 55's, bench two plates of 45's, squat 4 plates... How about you?What is your strongest bodypart? Which one do you prefer to train? I prefer to train my back because it makes me feel so big... I love it.

Well, I am weak and I don't have that strength so I need the strength that God will give me. Physically, I am alright though I may not have the kind of physique you have or the strength that you possess. True strength is not measured on physical attributes. True strength is found in the heart. How strong is our heart to help those who are having problems in life? How many broken hearts have we helped to mend? How many aged men and women have we helped to feel better? How many lives have we rescued to become better?

Thanks for your response! But actually, I was searching for physical strenght stats. Maybe I wasn't enough precise, but you are right when you talk about heart strenght. Anyways, thanks again

You are alittle(?) stronger than me. I am first of all female and 60 plus. I weigh about 122 pounds. My best single rep bench press was 185 lbs. My best dead lift was 220 pounds. I have a bad hip so I do not do heavy on squats anymore keep the weight at just 135 but my best there was also 220 pounds. Last night I used a 65 pound ez curl for standing curls and 30 pound dumbbells for seated hammer curls. PUMP IT UP

Pump it up BART. Hey tomorrow night I am doing Chest and Triceps. I know I will do incline db press ss with close grip push ups but I am looking for some different trcep exercises. Any suggestionslol

 

myLot reputation of 93/100. BART78 (1129)   ranked 16 out of 41 in gym  1 month ago

for triceps, your workout should hit the three heads, lateral/medial & long head, doing triceps after chest or back is old school so you should work your triceps on a separate day inorder to achieve a better result. THE WORKOUT: close-grip pushdown-warm-up, remember dont'drift your elbow too far forward just keep your elbow tucked against your turso throughout the exercise whie controlling the weight, at the buttom of the exercise, push the bar toward the ground by dropping your shoulders slightly, this give extra squeeze and increase peak contraction. next workout is heavy-hitters, close-grip bench press and parrallel bar dips or bench dips. close-grip is great exercise for hitting the three head just remember your hands about 13 inches apart, bringing your hand too close together increase the strain on your elbows and wrist. dips, also hits the three heads, lower your body as far as possible in between bars, don't stop 'till you biceps make contact with forearms, this important to get the full stretch in your triceps. now your last exercise will lighter, lying dumbell triceps extension...OOOOHH HHHHAAAA!!
