[hurtgrunt]

you need somebody to spot you,dangerous on your own with that weight

[hrhadam]

@hurtgrunt Yeah seriously. I wouldn't bench like that outside a power rack without a spotter.

[ItalianWarrior777]

Thanks Buddy

[MrLamf2939sh]

nice job dude, i agree no roids for me! i just started making videos today , to document my journey! im 17 and love working out!

[otk8963]

Good luck with the journey buddy and always stay natural. I'll check out your channel. Remember if people start telling you steroids are ok asked them why do the Olympics strip people of their Medals when they are found out to be on steroids. Why do Professional sport use Asterisk next to players names when they break records and are found to be on steroids. Stay Natural and stay strong!

[MrLamf2939sh]

yea im going to be making benching maxes and so ill be posting soon

[AznChuckNorris]

Mind me asking how much you weigh?

[otk8963]

Not at all...I'm 200lbs.

[newforce3]

what do you do for soreness aside from massage, heating and icing, motrin, hydration, rest, stretching, walking. what i am getting at is I am am sore alot of the time. even when i took a month off and did not exercie i was aching.

[otk8963]

you have to feed your muscles and rest them. tell me what one of your workout are like and what you take after the workout. by the way you will be sore after a month lay off thats normal.

[otk8963]

Thanks Dude...Always Natural !

[bunburyZ]

Whats your max ?

[otk8963]

Right now 300 on incline and 350 on flat bench.

[rctriplefresh5]

350 is strong stuff. 155 pounds over bodyweight! closing in on the 2x bodyweight mark!

[otk8963]

Thanks Dave. The most I've ever done was 375 max when I was 185 body weight a couple a years ago.

[otk8963]

The reason I don't count the 375 as my max is because I only did it once but I've done 350 a bunch of times so thats my true max.

[BIGDADDYJOHNSON27]

[powabuilda]

Great Job Andrew!

[otk8963]

Thanks Nate. whats going on buddy?

[powabuilda]

Not too much man. I'm just getting back into heavy training for my meet in close to 8 weeks. Aren't you going to be training for your first meet soon?

[otk8963]

yes I'm gonna shot for the meet in February with Jared and Dave. It will be my first meet. Jared said I'm close to beating the bench press record in my class. You gonna post your video from the meet?

[powabuilda]

That's Awsome! Is the bench record a state record, American or World? Ya, I will be posting some vids hopefully from a meet Im hoping to do in December.

[fastandrea]

Bulldog strong!

[otk8963]

Thanks Buddy. How are thing going with you?

[fastandrea]

Good --- working out with bro tomorrow ( HHH 396 ) will put up some new posts--be well : )

[HHH396]

Good! I should have a video up tomorrow.

[otk8963]

Good I'll be on tomorrow so I'll see it.

[asadie]

Thanks for sharing...great lift!@

[otk8963]

Thanks

[WeightLifterNerd]

Good to see videos from you again andrew, did you get my message I sent you?

The record bench press in your age group is 363 in the 198 class you are close to it man!

Me and you should race to 315 on incline, great work overall!

[otk8963]

Thanks Jared. I did get the message. I was gonna write back later. So I'm 15lbs away...cool ! I think I'll be able to do that by the February meet in Princeton. You are going to that one right? We are neck and neck with the incline. I tried 315 the other day and just missed it. I ended up dumping the weight...no spotter. Not the first won't be the last lol. Thanks for the info on the bench press record.

[WeightLifterNerd]

Yeah but that is with a pause though, not touch and go. But you look like you are stronger, you did that 350 with semi-ease with no lift off I might add, liftoffs can help. You might be able to pull it off especially if you learned a power lifter back arch.

We are neck in neck in a lot of the pressing movements, you are good competition for me, I like it!

[otk8963]

Thanks for the confidence Buddy. We are neck and neck in pressing movements your right. You have me with the squats,curls and deadlifts. I think your ahead overall. We definitely help push each other.

[WeightLifterNerd]

I am still planning on going to the February meet and am still trying to get dave too also as I discovered he is not to far off the deadlift record in his age category the junior class 20-23 years old and the 165 and 181 class, the deadlift records in those classes are 473 and 500, dave has hit 420 and gave 440 a fair fight, dave just turned 20 today, so he has 3 years to break it, and you have about 3 years to break the bench press in your age category masters 45-49.

[otk8963]

It would be good if Dave goes. He is definitely getting stronger. Whats the deadlift and squat record for my age?

[WeightLifterNerd]

Squat479.50

Bench Press 363.75

Deadlift562.00

About 120 off the squat, about 130 off the deadlift, you will have to work hard to get those ones, although you are making decent progress on the deads, within 3 years the squat and deads might be achievable but your work will definitely be cut out for you!

[otk8963]

Your right it's gonna take a few years at least to get to those numbers. The bench I'll have hopefully by Feburary.

[WeightLifterNerd]

I recently did 300 and missed 305, I put 15 pounds on my incline in two months and hope to do the same afterwords to get 3 plates per side, then I might try to get 405 on decline and on flat bench press.

[otk8963]

You'll get it. I have no doubt. You are getting stronger and stronger.

[SteroidsAreForLosers]

Good job buddy!!

Ever Natural Man!!

SAFL...

[otk8963]

Thanks Buddy. Always natural. I wouldn't do it any other way.

[HHH396]

Awesome job buddy! I especially like the 135 x 26...very nice! Blasting the reps out.Glad to see a new vid.I was getting worried about you haha

[otk8963]

Thanks Buddy I'm doing ok. You know me and the high reps. How is everything with you?

[rctriplefresh5]

LMFAO at you disabling ratings!!!

anyways glad to see youre back buddy, hows work been going?

[otk8963]

Work is good. How are you doing? You know how I feel about ratings.

[WeightLifterNerd]

andrew shouldn't even have to put with the haters, I don't blame him for disabling ratings I have done it as well on a few videos but not many.
