Bens Log V 2.0

[Paulie]

Damn dude excellent pressing. A 405 bench will be coming sometime soon lol arent you doing a show sometime this year??

 

[BigBen]

Base thaanks bro!
Fallen: i had done a power routine ve rthe winter man looks as it paid off, i hit 420 when i was still on the routine and can still do 405 i just dont see the purpose of hitting 405 every week for BBing sake
Line: Trying to get my hands on some loud colored weatsuits for the summer

LMAO NO ITS NOT!
Paulie: i can hit 405 still i just dont wanna hit heavy weight all the time for joints sake Thanks for the support bro
EDIT: about a show: ive actually dropped 10 lbs or so and am around 12 % BF but i dont plan on taking it any lowr bc i have plans for summer school and dont think a show is in my near future. I also have t make an appointment w a dermotlogist that does surgeries bc i had cists(a form of acne that leaves scars) when i was 16-19 really and have marks form that so i need that removed befor ei think about a show. i guess i just plan to keep on learning how my body reacts to what kinds of training and food until then.

true them heavy weight are hell on the joints no doubt. good trap workout thats what i want to hit tonight but i need a lot more cardio also so maybe only traps and cardio today. Great lifts all the way around though

 

[Project Evo]

Damn if those delts aren't like a couple of watermelons ready to pop!

Hoooge work Beno, but it's what we've come to expect from a warrior like you bud. My delts feel dead just reading that session. Awesome work buddy.

As for your scars, is there any way of concealing them with a touch of make-up? My missus manages to hide the fact that she's a complete Werewolf with a bit of slap!

Respect to ya bud.

 

[Glex]

Makin' those shoulders big so you have a lot to brush off like the pimp you are!

 

[onebigeric]

Excellent intensity Ben, and a good mix of pressing and flye motions to boot. Way to squeeze on those barbell shrugs; I can feel your pain Keep it up

My current wieght is 231 Im as lean as i think i have ever been w 4 visible abs Im eating 6 or 7 meals a day depending the last 2 are just protein.

Uhh takin NO2, supercharge and creatine for supps, i take animal pak once a day and centrum in morning and at night.

i usually end the day with about 200 carbs and 270-320 G protein. Just thought id give an update on what was goin on w the diet n stuff. Plan on taking friday and saturday off eating real well thos e2 days to carb up hopefully get 10 hours of sleep or so both noights and uh come back at it on sunday and then back to the diet.

[Maxmonzter]

how about some new pics ben? anyways ur log is looking great as always huge number, i woulnd´t wanna train with you yet

 

[Line]

First, @ the loud colored sweats. Secondly, the shoulder work is impressive as hell. 225 x 10 and then 8 is sick and it looks like you were able to hit your traps hard after that as well.

Onto squats, 405 x 10 ain't know joke, no wonder you were dead tired after that and hacks.

 

[Glex]

Diet plan sounds good; listening to your body =

 

[BigBen]

Max: Thanks man, i posted pics in full off season mode i think mabye not i was 247, like i said im about 231 in the mornings when i wake up now so ive dropped about 16lbs so far and kept my strength. Thank God bc my carbs are about 200 G lower and i dropped a lot of the fat outta my diet. Im not looking to drop anyu more weight just keep my diet and put on muscle at a lower fat w it bein summer and all. No pics for now bc i havent been able to lay out n get any sun.

You and Eric on those BB rows...ridiculous.

Great day, you always have an awesome assortment of exercises.

 

[Line]

^^ Seriously, we're going to have to step it up on those a little bit so Ben doesn't think his back is better than mine



Flannel rules

 

[FOOTBALL FAN]

strong bent rows they are one of my pet hates of movements, bicep 21's are brutal

 

[PUMBA]

Man lifes funny.

I remember when I first joined BBD, and one of the first guys I hit it off with was you Benny, we were swapping advice and stuff and it helped me alot.

A few minutes ago I was in my log complaining about feeling like crap and stuff, then I thought hey I'll go and see what Benno has been up to.

Well buddy you've inspired me again, not just with your awesome strength and your power, but with your inner strength. The way you have basically said "well I can lift x amount but that is not going to help in the long haul".

It reminded me when I first decided to compete this year I was going to "CAN THE EGO" and lift right and build quality not quantity. Your reply to Paulie was the reality check I needed.

Thanks for grounding me again my brother.

Peace to you as well mate.
