The Secret to Setting and Achieving Fitness Goals at Any Age
I don’t like to brag (ok maybe I do a little bit) but sometimes you have to toot your own horn or nobody else will.

I bench pressed 435 lbs for two reps and did over 1000 lbs on the leg press for a full set of eight!! That’s pretty good by any standard and awesome for me. It is particularly good considering I weigh 210 pounds with less then 10% body fat and I have been decreasing my percent body fat simultaneously.
