Steep incline bench -- 12 reps using 100lb dumbells -- CR at 180 lbs BW?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: August 12th, 2025 7:54 PM Author: birdshit monolith CR?
These were full ROM, very deep, and controlled.
Note that I normally only do calisthenics for chest. Fun to take the ol' weights out for a dance occasionally though.
Scared to do bench. Curious how many reps of 225 I could get. May have to YOLO it this weekend. |

Date: August 12th, 2025 8:30 PM Author: cucumbers they're 100 lb dumbbells. 12+ reps means the muscles can handle the weight, but muscles can maintain or even gain strength into old age. joints, however, are fixed mechanical instruments that only get more fragile with age. 100 lbs of compressive force on the shoulder joint is heavy regardless of how many reps you can do (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5761804&forum_id=2#49180234) |

Date: August 12th, 2025 8:47 PM Author: Emotionally + Physically Abusive Ex-Husband Is there any medical literature suggesting that men should stop lifting heavy weights as they age?
GayGPT said:
Thought for 49s Short answer: no. Mainstream medical guidance does not tell men to stop lifting heavy as they age. In fact, major guidelines encourage resistance training for older adults—and high-intensity programs can be safe and beneficial when appropriately prescribed and supervised.
Guidelines encourage strength work at any age. WHO and CDC recommend muscle-strengthening for older adults; no “stop lifting heavy” rule exists. PMC CDC
Position statements support relatively heavy loading. The NSCA’s statement for older adults explicitly programs ~70–85% 1RM (i.e., “heavy”) with 2–3 sets per major muscle group, 2–3×/week, progressing from lighter loads. It emphasizes technique, screening, and individualized progression. NSCA
Trials in older adults—including men—show benefits and good tolerability. Classic NEJM work in very old adults demonstrated that high-intensity strength training improves strength and function. In older men with low bone density, the LIFTMOR-M trial found that high-intensity resistance and impact training improved BMD, strength, and function with only minor adverse events and was “well-tolerated.” New England Journal of Medicine PubMed |
