How Much Weight Do You Bench Press ?!

[Molokai]

---

The lowerback is very prone to injury - when not performing your lifts correctly.
I have had a slipped disk in my spine - twice - on different occasions. Each one of them took several months to heal.
I've had a minor tear in my left calf... as well as damaged tendons in my biceps and left chest and an injured left elbow.
Life is greatÂ*

People should train hard... but most importantly train smart.

I tend to see myself as a future bodybuilder... but right now I consider myself a powerbuilder (get as big as possible by becoming as strong as possible).
My injuries have occured due to overtraining, having off-days (not ready mentally) and by gaining strength faster than my tendons were ready for. If you fall off the horse you have to jump right back on it... and that's what i'm trying to do

Those days when you really don't feel like working out, but still drag your ass to the gym... and while being in the gym you have a hard time getting into the mood/mentality and therefor not executing the excercise properly.
