8 years, sounds like the reserves or national guard. 6 years active 2 years in the IIR. not that that takes anything away from you serving the country, i spent 4 years in the Marine Corp so i know that any military involvement is an accomplishment, unless you are just doing the reserves or national guard for the college money only and have a MOS as a pencil pusher. no great admiration for that.
but your statement was about him posting how big and strong he is. Looking at his profile it doesnt say his height and weight but if his arms are 13" he probably doesnt weigh a whole lot more than 165-180 max i would guess. and to be able to bench 267 at that size is not easy and most people at that weight cant. His bicep curls (101) and his Row (154) and not bad either. Putting that into perspective his squat (242) and deadlift (285) seem pretty low. but that may be in result to the Crohns. im not sure but with it effecting the digestive system im sure it has its effects.
And who cares if he is proud of his accomplishments i am of mine so let him boast alittle. You just commented on one of yours (your military exp.) i didnt ask but hey congrats and that is an honor to have the ability and health to do that. ALot of people cant pass the Physical at MEPS to get into the armed forces (much like the general wouldnt because of crohns)
You would be amazed how many people out there can not bench 80 pounds more that what there weight is. Heck most cant bench there weight. You might be one of them. lol..
no i dont want to get into an argument about this but i dont know TheGeneral or yourself but if one is proud of his accomplishments then let him say it. I'm active duty Army and I just reenlisted for another 6 years. I'm on orders to report to Italy on April 10th.
Just for the record again, I never made fun of his physical condition nor would I have mentioned it if it wasn't brought up. I saw it in his blog this morning and no where in any post has he used it as an excuse or a reason whether its post on this board or bb. All I'm doing is talking shit back to him about his claims of strength and physical superiority(sp?).
To make light of the entire thing, my arms aren't much bigger than 13". I just measured.
