Strong Like Bull

So, I’m not tooting my horn here, because I know I’ve got a way to go as far as getting in shape. That said though, today while “Flexing the Bows”, I bench pressed 200lbs. for the first time ever (one full set of ten, even Oops! Checked my log and it was actually only a half set - five reps.). I have no idea what that would translate to in free weights or anything else, but it’s the most “weight” I have ever been able to push away from my body.

I was never a strong kid. Flexibility and agility were my keys to success. ;) Now, though, I am stronger than I’ve ever been thanks to the Bowflex.

Neat stuff! The forward progress is exciting.

    Slap on another 25 lbs hombre and you can tell the little ladies you can bench two plates…

    My Bowflex only goes up to 210…
    No plates… Just bows.

    Nice. I ended up having to upgrade my Bowflex after some time. I just wish I knew if those 210 lbs were actually 210 lbs or not.
