Thanks a lot man. I do bench (as well as incline/decline). When I bench, the bar goes down slow, and then you push it up fast. I had to take a break from lifting because of school but I'm getting back into it. Right now, I'm comfortable at benching 145 (used to be 185).
I use a combination of free weights and some machines. My friend goes complete free weights but he doesn't have good form. I keep telling him that Machines are always nice, and they can be great to tone and work other muscle groups.
I hate lifting sometimes. Some bastard was making fun of me for curling with 25's. He was using 35's. The whole time, he was rocking back and using his back. He wasn't even doing anything. If I wanted to do that, I could do it with 45's.
Tomorrow is the real bitch. I'm doing my squats. *ALWAYS USE A WEIGHT LIFTING BELT FOR THIS. MY FRIEND REFUSES TO*
Thanks for taking the time to write everything out.
