It looks like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying.

I love it when things like that just naturally align themselves.

This is starting to sound like an episode of Seinfeld. 😂

Nah, this is funny!

Oh.... so this is funny? Sorry, I forgot to laugh.
RAT

Yep, it's hysterically funny. Can't you see, I've had to tighten my belt just to stop my sides from splitting.

queeqChaos
Oh, so that's what you were doing. 😂

Or was it bholding my beer belly in. 😂

Do I hear the gym calling?
RAT
RatcatSenior Member
Ah, the Gym, now there's a subject.
DO you know I can now leg press over 117Kgs. That's 8 Kgs more than my own body weight and the total amount available on the machine.
Now I need to work on the bench press........
QUE
queeqChaos
Ah yes, the bench press. That's the real thing. Leg pressing over your own weight is good, but also normal. Your legs carry that weight all day.

I use our stepper and my "perfect abs" machine more than anything else. Tommy is the bench presser. He's working his butt off now. He has to fit it into his kayak in about 4-6 weeks. Hehehe. 😂

Actually queeq that isn't strictly true. The bone structure absorbs a lot of that weight naturally rather than the muscles.Otherwise it would be really easy to do.
Also, the higher up you legs you get, the less weight they are supporting.
QUE
queeqChaos
Okay, I dig that.
I'd like to do some more of that, but I have bad discipline so I need a sparring partner. But since I have no friends (nor surprise, I'm sure 😂 ) it won't happen for a while.
There was a time that I bench pressed 180lbs.

That's a lot. I've been working up. So far I'm just above 60KG's but that's on the lateral benchpress machhing. I figure I could hit 90Kgs on a one off.
Also, I work out almost daily now, but with a good mix of weight work 3-4 times a week, swimming and cardio work every day of some nature.
