awesome workout! 237 wasnt too easy and my next bench session is in 6 days, normally Im used to benching only once every 9 days so on my upper assistance day Im gonna skip the shoulder presses and skullcrushers and take it easy on the shoulder/tri's so that hopefully I can hit 242 on Wednesday which will be the day before my 16th birthday. A 242 paused bench while Im 15 has been a goal of mine for a while...

Also on Wednesday Im gonna attempt the 198 close grip bench which has also been a goal of mine for a few months

Good shit bro!

Have you hit your grandparents up for those fatgripz yet?

Will you be able to drive at 16, and if so are your parents getting you a car?

Good shit bro!

Will you be able to drive at 16, and if so are your parents getting you a car?

Over here you cant drive at 16, You can take your test at 17 and drive with another already passed driver in the seat next to you but you cant drive on your own until your 18! fucking sucks lol

so no Im not getting a car lol

And Iv just spoke with my mum about the fat gripz, she said yeah it looks fine, just needs to talk with relatives and sort out who I will be recieving them from lol.

Its gonna cost $45.05 (holy shit!) with shipping and everything which is kinda expensive for two rubber tubes lol but theres no where else to get them and the only other thing is the EliteFTS tyler grips which are even more expensive....

Only downside is I dont think they will fit the dumbells in my gym cause the handles arnt straight, they are thick in the middle then thin out towards the edge... its wierd and gay as fuck

I am pretty sure you can get these fat grips made for you. Go to anyone who builds things in rubber. Buy one sheet of rubber from them. Have it curved and melt 3-4 layers depending on the thickness. Boom. No need to waste money on buying EliteFTS fat grips. You can do this yourself. I am in the process of building my own home gym (should be done in the next fortnight) and I am surprised at all the shit you can literally have made for you without resorting to buying from retailers. You just have to look hard enough.
