I am a little worried that trying something like that now makes you a douche.[/quote]

so your telling me that if you go to the gym everyday and you see the same kid almost barely bench pressing 200 pounds everyday for 30 days and still not really getting it then on the 31st day trying to bench press 400 and having the bar almost kill you you wouldn’t think that person was a douche? this is pretty much the same.[/quote]

How does 200lbs sound anything like 600lbs?

There are people strong enough day one in the gym to press 200lbs. It takes YEARS to work up to doing over 600lbs and no one is doing it or even unracking the weight without being stronger than 95% of the population.

The only thing douchy about this scenario is calling people names because they try something that most people could never do even if they tried.

That doesn’t make him a douche. If you had any experience moving that kind of weight, you would know the balls it takes just to get under it.[/quote]

Nobody is saying Glen Russo is not amazingly strong but It looked pretty damn obvious he had no business trying to bench a grand. His 800 lb bench looked awfull.
