And then there's some who can do that much weight yet they don't even look like they could... So what does a person look like who can do X amount of weight?! Doing heavy weight is not a look it's strength. Everything must progress in one way or another and more weight is not the only way to achieve your personal desired look.nsashbl01 said:Something I preached to my wife when she began bodybuilding. Your muscles are dumb, they know nothing about weight. They know how to contract and relax. As long as they are being worked, the weight means nothing. Another friend used to preach this about bodybuilding. "Don't strive to bench 400lbs, strive to look like you can bench 400lbs".....
