Bench Press 330 x 6 , 245 x 18

[nuclearthreat545]

Music sucks

[Mongoly357]

330 six times is everything but weak, specially sense your not considered "pro". Very nice lift ^_^

[HHH396]

@Mongoly357 Thank you! I appreciate the comment!

[madmattdisease92]

strong lift brother!!!

i tell u what i got 315 for 4 when i was 310, now im 258 cuz im joinging the marines and my bench went HELLA DOWN

i need a good bench routine to get back in the game! can u help me out brother?

[HHH396]

@madmattdisease92 Thanks man! You know I don't use any sort of routine.I try to keep my reps in the 6-10 rep range most of the time to keep from burning out.Ocassionally going in the 1-5 range.The best way to get your bench up is to do a lot of close grip benching and military pressing or dumbell presses.And keep your sets low,don't do a million sets.You won't be able to recover from it,unless you're on a bunch of supplements.

[zboi100]

wow dude how long did it take you to get to 330, im a sophmore and can barley get 225.

[VODKAGOCRAZY1991]

nice work, and mini gym dude, always nice to see another lifter

[HHH396]

Thank you,I appreciate the comment!

[griffin66441]

how old are you?

[HHH396]

I'll be 40 yrs old in a couple months.

[BSNrapper]

o word, i need on of those, for my left elbow

well like i said, still impressive and shows alot of hardwork

keep it up bud

[HHH396]

Thanks bro,I appreciate the comments!

[madmattdisease92]

@BSNrapper hahah fricke u still use bsnrapper> lmao

[BSNrapper]

why r u using wraps for 330....straps aint nessicary till 400+

still i see ur commited, by all the weights

good job

[HHH396]

You mean elbow sleeves? I wear them to keep my elbows warm,as an injury protection.They're quite loose and do not give me any extra help...

Thanks for the comment!

[throwingshit]

@BSNrapper to say straps are not necessary til 400+ is a stupid comment, everyone is different. 70lbs from 400 *shakes head slowly* good job buddy, most guys can't lift 300+

[maxbencher83]

hey man i got a question on march 06th i uploaded a video of me doing 240lbs for rep..then on march 13th i was able to 240lbs x2 reps..

then on march 20th i did 240lbs x4 then today on march 27th i did 240lbs x5 and then did 270lbs x1 and rested for 5 mins and then did 290lbs,,,

the 290lb press was done in a smith machine i loaded up 6 45lb plates and 2 10lb plates for a total of 290lbs i dont count the weight of the bar though..now my question is this is the smith accurate?

[HHH396]

Yeah it's probably accurate.I think most smith machines have a counter balance and u really don't count the bar much.

[xmlisnotaprotocol]

I'd be pretty happy if I could do that ...EVER!

[thomasstuart]

not bad - i do the same weights at a bodyweight of 165

ps i'm 39

[HHH396]

You double your body weight for 6 reps? I would like to see the video of that.

[maxbencher83]

awesome strength this man kicks ass!!

[HHH396]

Thanks maxbencher! I appreciate the comment!

[haydencantact]

If this is a weak day, I'd dread to think what a strong day would be like. Imagine how guilty you'd feel if you slammed your fists on the ground and the next day there was an earthquake in Siberia.

[HHH396]

hahhaa yeah I have to watch it when I punch the wall because my arm goes right thru to the outside ; )

[eskrimafighter]

Good Job man your weights gone up I havent been on in a while. One thing Why Not play King of Kings in background. Triple H would be upset lol Good Job man. Keep it up

[HHH396]

Thanks bro! Yeah I would be doing even better if my shoulder wasn't bothering me for the last month or so.....rotator cuff thing

thanks for the comment!

[HHH396]

Oh yeah how is your shoulder doing?

[eskrimafighter]

I cut down from 220 to 195 and have been doind 225 for 15-18 reps. I am going to post some new vids soon I actually run my own gym now so its hectic as all hell but Shoulder is better with light weight. I tried 315 the other day hit it for 4 reps but shoulder felt it lol ..Damn Shoulders. Look foward to new vids man ..B good

[kraftsportNO]

Maybe weak for you, impressive for me! :)

[HHH396]

Thanks man!

[otk8963]

Dude, That was great!!! You killed that 245.

[HHH396]

Thanks bro! I appreciate that!

[haydencantact]

A weak day for you. A superbly strong day for anyone else. You're a true human wrecking ball.

[HHH396]

Thanks Brother,I appceciate that!

[ZackAttack1978]

hell its special enough for me. funny you chose to rep out 245..i will be attemting my max at that weight in 2 weeks.

[HHH396]

Hey Zack,I really hope u get 245.Glenn just hit 245 yesterday.

[ZackAttack1978]

yea i commented on his vid, check it out :)

[A550RGY]

Great to see another video of yours, Mark! Like the others said, I missed you too.

And I would kill for 245 x 18. That's stronger than the majority of NFL players probably, and everyone considers them to be strong!

[HHH396]

Thanks my friIend! I was just discussed at myself,thought I should've done better.I'm hard on myself.....I wasn't that displeased with 245 though ; )

[BIGDADDYJOHNSON27]

your not weak man maybe your training too hard.

do you ever use supplements? there are many out there that can boost bench strength

[HHH396]

Thanks Ronald! I just came off a serious of jobs that really weakened my shoulders.I get really mad at myself when I don't put up the numbers i think I should.

[powerlifter330]

man im the same way if i dont get the weight i think i should it scews up the rest of my day

[strongmann99]

Meeses my day up to.

[HHH396]

Yeah it should be interesting who can get to 275 lbs first....that's Glenn's goal to match what he did 14 years ago

[BLONDSPOTPOWERLIFTER]

still great as always !!!!! despite what you think

[HHH396]

Thanks Bro! Hey man where have you been? No videos for a while,how are you doing?

[BLONDSPOTPOWERLIFTER]

just have one uploaded

[HHH396]

Hey Alex did u checkout Glenn's new video?

[HHH396]

I'm weird Alex,I want to do it without creatine.Who knows I might go to the creatine when my gains come to a halt : )

[strongmanzack]

damn... you got a lot of comments!.... anyway just try to focus on the positive... you did better than i can do... and you still got the best channel background on youtube... hahaha you'll do better next time around.

[HHH396]

Thanks bro,I appreciate that! Yeah I get really pissed when I don't do my best.hahha you're right about the background....that makes me feel better.Thanks for the comment!

[dario2004]

Mark thats still very good lifting man for not felling strong 330 for 6, when you fell better you will come close to 8 or 9 reps with 330 and 245 for 18 is amazing too, you doing great, keep up the good training, it was good to finally see a training video from you i been missing them

[HHH396]

Thanks Dario,I appreciate it! I think the next couple weeks will be better.I stall sometimes on bench but I never give up!

[HHH396]

Yes it can be very tuff at times,especially on the shoulders.Hang in there with me,I sometimes have times where my bench just stalls.I never give up though.Thanks my friend!

[HHH396]

Thanks Alex! We just finished a serious of tuff jobs,that really took strength away from my shoulders.I should do better next week.

[strongmann99]

Well that was still preety good. You ought to start taking creatine that will make a big improvment. I was wondering if you were ever gonna post another video.

[HHH396]

Thanks Buddy! Like I told Kaz,the last few jobs were tuff on my shoulders( lots of brushing and rolling) so my strength is down.

I'm trying to go completely natural and not use any supplements.I don't like the let down when u come off creatine.

[strongmann99]

Well if you dont like the let down just take creatine and dont come off of it.

[HHH396]

Yeah I really don't want to be on it at all.Are you taking it?

[strongmann99]

Yeah I just started taking it. I think it will help alot. I talked to a couple powerlifters friday that said they take creatine over protien. I am taking creatine and protien.

[hosslogan]

What is your pr with 330?

[HHH396]

7 reps,I was being hard on myself because it felt heavy today.
