* BENCHING PLAN TIL NOVEMBER 24th *

November 24th is judgement day for me. During the summer I set a goal to be able to do the following things by thanks giving day

- bench 185+
- dunk with two hands with ease
- dunk off 1 leg with ease
- do cool "trick" dunks
- be jacked

Currently I can dunk with two hands whenever I want, dunk off 1 leg easily, and can catch 2 hand dunks off the backboard. And I am as big as I ever have been in my life. So all I need to do is bench 185+ that morning to reach my goal. On 10/20/11 I hit my goal of 185lbs. New goal is 190-195lbs by thanks giving morning! Im also going to try some harder dunks like windmills, etc.
