Re: Re: To all you people who think low reps heavy weight is the way to go!!

now these are great weights for your age and weight but you really need to critique yourself.

1) how is your bench form, do you bounce the weight, do you go all the way down with a slight pause, do your but come off the bench, is the lockout strong and controlled. if yes then great...

2)do you Squat, having one-dimensional strength is very limiting cause you lose so much valuable growth.

3) do you deadlift, having a strong back and core increases one's strength and size.

if you can answer yes to all those question then you are well on your way to being a good lifter

i can answer yest to al those questions i have good form, on everything i dead lift, squat i go down parallel w/ very good form, when i did 240 i didnt lift my back off!! I dont bounce the weight i dont belive in that it can cause injury and its not a tru bench and i go all the way down touch my chest and go back up no bounce, a little pause!! Thanx man!!

Good job on the progress. My current routine mixes low and high reps. I like the variety. Good luck on 300.
