Ok don't laugh but I was so excited I had to tell someone. I finally benchpressed 50lbs only 4 reps and my spotter said he was barely touching the bar.
Sounds silly huh??
So I just have 56 lbs to go and I will be benchpressing my body weight.
LOL that'll be awhile.

Way to go Leslie, I'm still at 36lbs and even that's a struggle on my last set...can't wait till I hit 50lb. Keep it up!!
