There's no denying the metric system's superiority.

American standard ftw

Then why we talking about 225?

I use ounces when bragging about my rep totals. People think I'm a freak.

And I'd say 100kg's... So?

And cc, it's the British standard, and even they've given that crap up.

Number has fallen off the cliff, but I can seriously rep 225 - like all day.

Yea I can see it now watching a football game. "Pass interference on the defense, 13.7 meters from the previous line, automatic..... 1st DOWN!"

Yeah, forgetting that a yard and a meter are about 1% apart in length.

Anyways, metric system is superior and imperial standard is an asstastic grab bag of arbitrariness. Signed, mathematicians, engineers, and people who work with numbers for a living.

Put up 185x20 today, which wasn't to absolute failure. Not bad for weighing in at a buck eightyish IMO jmo tho.

Nice. I weigh 207 (195ish if I don't eat like an idiot), and I can't do that 20 reps. Maybe just 15, and I work out religiously. I'm 6' 2" though.

Finally taking creatine again. What a difference in my workouts...

I also recommend this to anyone looking for creatine and/or glutamine supps.

The ON creapure is about the best creatine mono you can get as well as their whey protein.
