bench aint growing

gymKING Posts: 4 Joined: 2003/03/18	2003/03/18, 07:24 PM I have noticed my chest is becoming bigger but i cannot increase weight. It is not a main concern as long as I am getting bigger. Any suggestions though?

Go up to about 90% of your max and push hard. Just be sure to do a good warm-up and don't drop the weight on your throat. ;) -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!"
