I'm gonna get creamed for writing this blog, but I'm so proud of Matt that I'm going through with it despite the consequences. I'm sure he's going to be really embarrassed, but I think it's cool, so... here goes.
Matt had been stuck bench pressing 315 lbs. for a while, and in the last month he hasn't had a lot of time to work his chest to try to up that poundage. So last week he put on 315 and pressed it at least 8 times. So the next set he upped it to 335, pressed that 5 times, next set upped it to 355 pressed it one and a half times. It was awesome - he got over that plateau, enjoyed it for two seconds and quickly set a new goal to press 400 lbs. That's my guy.
Thought this was hilarious - Matt was too "lazy" to take his weight off to get a drink between sets, so he just waddled down the hall like so. It works well that my ipod is also a camera so I'm ready to capture such shots at a moments notice.

You're not hardcore unless you live hardcore. Hardcore!
Congrats Matt! That's huge. Tried the 300 work out for a week. Kicked my trash. I have the hardest time with the pullups. I'll continue till the end of the month. Let me know if you ever figure out the CGI abs.
"LET'S GET SERIOUS!"
Wow! Nice going Matt! I think I will be up to that weight next month. What are you bench pressing these days, Candice?
This post is embarassing to say the least. Thunder, you are in better shape than me. Most of the exercises give me a serious beat down.
