    Since I've only ever trained alone I know what I can handle in terms of not being able to get the weight back up. Every once in a while I'll push to far and it requires bad form to get the bar back up on a bench press.

    Never tried a 1RM, probably wouldnt do that unless I had a partner. I once had a guy spot me for decline DB Presses, dude put the DB's in my hand all awkward, gave me both DB's at the same time, are you kidding me bro, how the heck am I suppose to grab the DB when your holding both of them by the handle?!! That gave me a bad taste for using strangers to spot and help you.

    I train solo because its just easier for me.....trained with a bunch of guys years ago, a little powerlifting club, went to meets and just hung out but people move on and now alone is how I prefer to get things done.......as far as singles I always can find a spotter when I need it

    Majority of the time its solo at home. I occasionally train with a few ranked benchers that have helped me tremendously, benching at home just aint the same. When training with the guys I experienced less shoulder injuries/aches and broke 500 raw.

    Alone for me too. I generally like play harder then other peeps do. Espicially those my age. And I train at home. Dont do PR or 1RP max. No need to for me.

    Lmao! Have I rubbed off on ya?

    I foam roll nude sometimes at home. Gets the wife excited to walk In on me.

    Apparently the gym frowns upon nudity. Apparently they don't know sex sells! if some Tits where bouncing on the treadmill guys would be lining up lol.

    U might be onto something here!
    Blah blah blah Latina's ass...blah blah blah!
