Cellmass is good stuff, its a lil pricey like most bsn products but all their products are high quality. I use cellmass and used to take noxplode but right now I have superpump250 which is much stronger almost to the point of being too strong.

I am 5 '9 and weigh 170. I could bench 315 , 1 rep with no bench shirt. It helped that I worked out with a few guys , the smallest being 240 lbs that were power lifters. This was 7 years ago, I have worked out off and on for the last few years. I am going on Vacation in a couple of months so I started working out again regularly. I now struggle with 225 , 1 time. It sucks getting old!

It helps to have short arms . What is funny is I am all upper body. My legs are what my wife calls " stick figure shape "

it's crazy what some people can do, we had a 3x state wrestling champ at my HS who wrestled at 145 and maxed out at 297, coudln't quite get 300

My oldest brother was in lifting while he went to SFA University. He set a Texas and Oklahoma record in '97 for bench/squat/deadlift for his weight class. He was about 5'9 205 ish all muscle. Maxed at 440 on bench. 780 on squat or dead lift...i cant remeber which one. For myself I'd prolly max at about 250 or so...

PS - if you go to www.huskerpower.com it has a calculator for max.. for example you do 17 reps of 185 lbs. it will give u a max....my coach in high school used to do it that way...its not exactley correct but pretty close..its alot safer to max that way without a spotter...

**SSwt00SS** · 06-05-2007, 07:49 AM

i can bench the bar just fine...

**riceslayer302** · 06-05-2007, 09:30 AM

pushed 265 last night... chyeeeah

what is superpump250?

i stack NO2 CE2 and sometimes NOXplode for lifting usually along with carnitine, hydroxycut h/c, ZMA, and megamen when im doing weight loss too.

shit is expensive

**LETHALxLS1** · 06-05-2007, 10:08 AM

I have been benching about 70 pounds. LOL I am trying to recover from spine surgery. I worked my way up from 40 pounds so I am happy! Things could always be worse.

Superpump 250 is an nitric oxide supplement with creatine and a shit load of arginine and b vitamins in it. It's by Gaspari Nutrition. Its like Noxplode but better. You should try it. You can buy it for around 35 bucks if you look hard enough online.
