me bein slim and strong

ok im 5,8 and 3/4

i bench im the 185-230 area at max

and preacher curl 125lbs at max

im 140-145 lbs

and 13 inch in biceps

so how am i that low in weight and im stronger than people who are like alot thicker than me and just as cut as me

strength and size are distant cousins

oh ok

i agree with sheep man over there.... lol me myself am alot stronger then 11th grade football palyers but im only in 8th grade.....
 
-size=that you just use heavier weights lower reps/....
 
-stregth= that you use small weights and perform huge amounts of sets and reps...
 
 
so my advice is that forget using heavier weights and getting buff...just use small weights and do alot of reps..... cause you will get alot respect that way.....

i think its kind of a cool thing being smaller, yet stronger than most, but i would like to gain weight and size.

Its actually the other way around. Heavy weights and low reps will give strength.
 
and lemme tell you something, theres not only a big difference but a huge difference in benching between 180lbs and 230lbs. lol

You sure your counting lbs and not Kgs lol jk, how old are you?

still, hes 160 pounds..............and ive never seen anybody in person do that. his bench is well over 200 pounds more than yours and hes only 10 more pounds than you

ok the reason i gave that big 50 lb diffrence in the area because

the last time i maxed on free weight bench press was 185 in the middle of the year


and now i think i got a lil stronger

suddenley im doin 260 on bowflex

and on this bench press im doin 240 but its the cable

and i dont know how much im doin in free weights so thats why i said im in the 180-230 area the only way i can give an extreme acurate max is if i get to a free weight bench press


oh and the bicep curl part

remember its 2 handed not 1 handed usin the preacher curl

i wasnt tryin to like talk mess or anything, but im not much taller than he is and i work hard at workin out and its not cool when someone says its easier because ur short
