Well, as some of you may know I enjoy lifting the odd weight.

Because of the type of lifting I do i tend not to get ultra defined though - but recently I have been mixing it up one night a week with bodybuilding style sets. Im also trying to get my weight down to a solid 17 stone.

So, here is the progress so far LOL - forgive the pics





If anyone wants any exercise or training advice, Id be only too glad to share what I have worked out over the past few years.

Im not sure what kind of "work outs" youve been doing.... but that close up of the right arm kind of gives it away.....

Mark

LOL

My right arm is weaker than my left by about 4% and I am right handed

I blame the carpal tunnel syndrome in my right hand lol

Are you not tempted to copy homer in that simpsons episode where he trains only one arm? They made a fortune from hustling arm wrestlers...

That is one seriously massive arm.

What are you upto now for bench pressing?

I managed to get do 72kg(36kg dumbbells) free weight for the first time yesterday. Only managed to push out 3 reps though as Id already done a set of inclines as well before hand.

Normally when I bench I get upto 64kg and can do 3 solid sets of 8 after a good warm up set.

Havent done a single bench for a long time - need to soon

Comparing like for like with dumbells though - I use 50KG dumbells for 5 x 5s on flat dumbell presses - but theyre well down the pecking order - theyd be more of an auxilliary exercise as part of a routine.
