Description

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
- John 3:16
Almost to the day, Bent Presses performed a decade apart. July, 2016 on the top Bent Pressing 165lb barbell while on the bottom, July, 2026 Bent Pressing 105¾lb Brutus Dumbbell. It's easy to see that l was trying to be a 'side' Bent Presser, not yet realizing my arms are just too darn long in relation to my Torso. Though l had previously tried being a 'front' Bent Presser, l hadn't, until recently, figured out how to get the full range WITHOUT relying on Pressing out the last few inches. If l was struggling with 128lb of Ravishing Rick Rude Dumbbell, HOW was l gonna progress to much heavier weights? Now, l get get the weight to 'roll' into the lockout phase, requiring a minimum of Triceps help. Amazing whatcha can figure out in a quick decade...😁 God Bless.
