Well I figured I'd post my "Packing Day" numbers. Or at least the ones I actually tested.

Date: 9/13/08 (Yes this is a 16-week program and I should be done by now but hey, you know)

Height: 6'
Weight: 209

Box Squat: 285 (this went up fairly easy but I failed with 305 and after that loud crashing noise it made when I dropped the bar on the pins and the weird looks I got from EVERYBODY in the gym, I decided I'd pass on the attempt of 295)

Bench Press: 215 - Yes this is pathetic for somebody my weight and I'm almost embarrassed to post it but it is what it is. I've never been good at bench presses but I've gotten a lot better. I also have a left shoulder that really likes screwing with me and it's actually haunted me a few times during this program.

However, when I first started training I was getting about 165 so I was actually proud of this number!

Deadlift: 375 - not too shabby? Yeah, I didn't even know what a deadlift was until about 9 months ago. Thank you "New Rules"! Now when someone's refrigerator or something falls over, I'll be over to handle the situation. (what, it could happen!)

Broad Jump: Forgot to measure it but it wasn't very far.

3-RM chinup: BW + 25. Could have gotten more but our area for chins and pull-ups are dominated by the "tricep pressdown" gang and yes the "dual standing cable curl facing the mirror with your sleeves rolled-up" guy.

Don't be that guy
