Well, if it counts? I am a fat slob who weighs 330 pounds and I benched 315 for 5 reps TnG and 325 for 3x3 around one week later. I work with incline barbell sets of 225 for 3x8. Could rep it 10 times if I wanted. Barbell rows with 225 for 3x5... All done in a caloric deficit. I'm 6'0 on the dot.
Trained chest and back today, did incline 235 3x6 and rowed 225 for 3x5. At my peak overhead strength I could rep 80 pound dumbbells 3x10 seated, that was around 1 month ago at 340 pounds approximately. Maybe a bit lower. Now I work with 135 on barbell press for 3x8. I'd love to hit a 225 press, but my delts are so weak compared to my chest and back. Same with squats and deads, I struggle to progress on them.
It seems like gifts can come in isolation, not as packages. If I could have 17 inches after my fat loss is said and done, I'd be ecstatic. They're 19 inches at the moment with a 1.5 inch hang of fat. I was blessed with chest and arms it seems.
If anyone doubts I will gladly post video clips on youtube. Although not of that dumbbell press, that would take me ages to work back up to because it took me two months to get there from 60 pound dumbbells.
Not as impressive as Jerb but I'm proud of it.
