I didnt post one blog in May.
I guess I was a little busy, but thats a shitty excuse.
May was a cool month here at Fitness Warehouse and Bench Freak Land.
In Early May I had the honor of doing a Bench Press Seminar and demo for the
Chisasibi Cree Youth Football squad.
My good friend Trevor Monaghan who is their Fitness Head dude brought them down to Ottawa for a Football camp, with a quick lay over with us at our training facility we affectionately now refer to as "The Hurt Locker"
I got the chance to work with young George on his bench, This kid is Strong..he hit 315 on the bench and isnt very far from 335lbs, all at 17 yrs old!!!
May also saw Philippe Desjardins and Daryl Martella, 2 long time regulars at the store, throw down at their first ever body building show in Gatineau, Qc.
Philippe Desjardins - went from 250 to 180 ( I apologize if I am off abit)
I think these guys did awesome!! It takes balls of steel to compete at any sport especially something new!! I will do an interview later this month with them to get their side of the story!!
Great Bench Workout
Also at the end of May I had the oppurtunity to do a great chest workout with another super focused individual , Matt Wiens!
I needed a chest partner and he was more than willing.
I loved the fact that what ever I threw at him , he was game for!
One of the highlights was seeing Matt hit 355 and just missing 365!! not bad for never having gome over 315 before.
Matt is Strong, I just tweaked some technique and showed him how to be spotted properly and he drove the Shit out of that BAR!!
365 isnt far off and he could hit the big 4 plates within 6 months!!
