Nice!

If you can work your way up to ~170kg then you'll have one of the biggest benches in the country for your bodyweight

LiE · 4 Oct 2012 at 19:57

I'm going to do some more paused benching, would you say it's best to keep to triples and try and increase it gradually?

Syla5 · 4 Oct 2012 at 20:37

Nice work man!

icecold · 4 Oct 2012 at 21:17

It's possible, but you'd need to keep your head on the bench

Ha! I haven't done that since you first pointed it out.

New routine now then?

LiE · 5 Oct 2012 at 09:02

Powerlifting of course, none of that thong wearing homo stuff

MoNkeE · 5 Oct 2012 at 11:00

Yeah you've gotta look good for that

Steedie · 5 Oct 2012 at 11:03

@ Lie: Oh snap

Don't worry you'll get there

MoNkeE · 5 Oct 2012 at 11:17

Haha

But cereal, would be amazing mate. Strong as an ox, you'd wipe the floor.

Nice work! You're making ice look very inefficient with his extra 6kgs and similar lifts!

LiE · 8 Oct 2012 at 19:17

Thanks. Ice weighs the same as me and last time I checked was lifting a lot more on deads

mrthingyx · 8 Oct 2012 at 20:30

Ah, fair play. Last pic I saw of him, he was sitting at 88kg... I'm clearly out of date!

Still great work, though. Make me look even worse!

LiE · 8 Oct 2012 at 20:54

Well I'm not sure how much ice weighs exactly, but he competes in the weight class that I plan to compete in.

icecold · 8 Oct 2012 at 23:21

Aggressive yo-yo dieting is the way forward!

Great lifting mate.
