**romanaz** · 12-06-2006, 03:24 AM

Here we go!

Romanaz vs El Capitan in the race for the 1000lb total. Who will make it first? Tune in HERE to find out!

In the first corner, we have Romanaz, weighing in at a beastly 193lbs, with the following lifts:

Bench - 165
Squat - 325
Deadlift - 385
Total - 875

In the challengers corner, we have El Capitan, weighing in at a lean and mean 183 with the following lifts:

Bench - 165
Squat - 225
Deadlift - 285
Total - 675

Rules :
1) First to 1000lbs wins!
2) Post all new record breaking lifts here
3) If you feel so inclined, brag about attempts you will be making soon.
4) Trash talk is allowed.

10lbs and 200lbs difference on the total, who will be the victor?

Only time will tell...

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Nothing like some friendly competition to bring out the best in ya...Bonus round for those who post vids/pics of their lifts as proof

Loser has to put a pic of the winner in their avatar for a month :P

**romanaz** · 12-06-2006, 05:33 AM

haha. because of that, I'm going to cut my 'cut' short (no pun this was how I thought that sentence out), and then work on the building strength phase. Then, we will see the fun that is an endo with calorie surplus and more GPP!
