i think its real because 225 bench isnt something really too brag about... someone who was creating a story would probably say something at least above 300

plus..you play football and cant get up 225?

Yeh, instead of appreciating the humor and obvious falsehood of this well written tale, you meatheads are talking about how much you can bench and posting pics of yourself.

I can bench 250 by the way.

Nice, 225 is two plates so that was my goal and I hit it. The picture was because HamerD didn't believe. Keep up the good work!

Edit: I assumed he actually did get the bench, unless the entire thing was just sarcasm, using my perhaps Luxembourgish brain I assumed only the absurd part was. But yeah I mean, it feels to do 225 the first time so grats.

hmm..never benched 225 before. My max was 215 when i was 15 (im 17 now) and then i stopped lifting for some reason. Just started working out again for college rugby ~~

Oddly enough, i took noexplode today for the first time, and it did absolutely nothing for me. Granted i was sore from my workout two days ago, but i had no adrenaline/energy/unexpected force oozing from me at all when i took it. I could barely get up 155(lol). All that happened was i kinda felt dizzy when i got home two hours later. I'll just stick to lifting o natural.

p.s. wtf how come my gym has no powercleaning mats, or even a fucking squat rack? fuck you planet fitness.

That does sound really lame ... but yeah, all my friends have said NO Xplode just gives them a headache. But I have heard random people raving about it. I think staying "pure" is the best way.

Wait, I thought he was talking about me. I'm pretty sure he's talking about me.

it's cool to not try? i think it's mean to make fun of someone for trying and i cant understand why someone would do it other than pure spite. i'd rather read a bad blog than this negativity

No offence mate but you still don't look like you can make 225 xD. I believe you though. Your muscles just must be very dense...how tall are you 6'2 or something? I look probably...possibly...stronger than you but i mean i can barely hit 160-170. Maybe it's cos i have a phobio of the smith's machine.

All of you people bench obscenely high weights ><!

I use a smith machine for nothing. 225 isn't a big deal, I think you're overestimating it. Being able to bench press 400 lbs wouldn't make you huge, you have to do specific things to get big ( I don't know what they are, but bodybuilder routines are always really long and ridiculous, and involve ridiculous diets ).

Get a good arch, a good big breath, and bench a lot. I'm not ridiculously skinny, and that's all that's necessary. Were I a stick I would accept your disbelief.

And I'm 5'9" 170 lbs ~77.27 k.
