Strongest guy in Aces High community?

A guy I went to high school with used to do reps with the Universal machine's weight peg set at max (can't remember if that's 300 or 325 lbs) and a sprinter from the track team sitting on top of the handlebars. We're talking well over 400 lbs here. This is a 17 year old we're talking about.

I just spoke to Don on the phone the other day, first time since high school (we graduated in 1971). We went through the mandatory asking how each other is, etc. When I commented I was quite a bit heavier than the last time he saw me, his retort was "Yeah, you were real skinny, huh?".

I resisted the urge to reply "Yes unlike you you muscle-bound SOB" (I had already told him how he could find me ;))

culero (not a scaredy-cat but not stupid either)

PS - I could tell a funny story about the time the school karate freak decided he would challenge Don to a fight....with hilarious results :)

Well similar to Iceman the last time I did a max bench press was in 1995 when I was finished with college ball and getting ready for some pro scouts coming in to run us through what I call "the last chance in hell" workouts to try and sign as a free agent for someone in the NFL. My bench was 415 with a leg press of 710 (no squats due to previously torn ACL) and my 40 yard times were 4.95 and 5.01. However since then I haven't lifted for a max weight because I just don't need to do it.
