I finally got 3 wheels!

After literally years of work I have finally reached my goal of benchpressing 315lbs. Sort of a right of passage for weightlifters I guess as it amounts to three 45lb plates on each side.

Anyways I finally did it today! And it was heavy. For anyone who is wondering why I'm posting this here it's just a quest I've posted about in the past, just thought I'd check in about finally achieving it.

WOOOO!

Congrats! I'm afraid that sounds way the fuck too intense for me! I'll keep my weight lifting to games like San Andreas.

Awesome man, congrats.

That's aswome man.

I'm struggling trying to bench press double 45's on each side of the bar, let alone 315. It's even worse when I try to do a decline bench press...much worse. All that gravity and weight can be too much for me, I haven't acquired that power...aleast not yet.

Keep going and you will sir. I remember when 225 was heavy for me, after a few years I can put it up for 16. It comes with time man

Even like two years ago I was only about to put up 205 for like 5 sets of 5

Good for you!

That's a whole lot of pounds. Congratulations on reaching that goal. Impressive stuff.

Hey, that's awesome! Always great to see people post some positive health-related stuff on here.

@sparky_buzzsaw: I agree, I've quite enjoyed seeing some fitness threads pop up in the forums as of late.

Good job, duder! I need to start looking into bulking up a bit but for now I need to get rid of some fat around my waist; after that I'll start lifting. I'm not fat or anything, I mean, I used to be and then lost like 70 some odd pounds but I don't think I'm at the bulk up faze yet.

Sweet!

The real test is lifting three 45 lb wheels on one side and not making it look lopsided.

That's impressive. Now you can break the president in two with your bare hands.

@insane_shadowblade85: That's awesome man, keep that up, I love hearing about people who decide to change their lifestyles and health for the better. When I was a kid I was a fatty too, I decided after highschool that had to change and eventually lost about 60 lbs from my fat assyest (265lbs). It's an amazing differences to feel good about your health and your body.
