    Re: Samaje Perine weight room tale: He's stronger than you

    110 is 64 % of my bodyweight, so yeah, seems like a lot to curl for me. I also turn 59 next month, so a lot of the heavier lifts just don't happen for me anymore. At one point I could bench 225, but not nowadays. Maybe a one-rep set, maybe. But otherwise I'm doing bench with something more like 145 or 155.

    After reading this last week, I attempted to do 10 x 10 with 135. I only got to 60 and I was gassed! That kid is a beast!

    I know it said arm workout, but I can't fathom curling that much weight.

    He's not talking about bench. It's curls, or some other kind of arm workout.

    I went back in last night to give it a go with 135 and my arms were like "no. just no." Stupid old man recovery time

    Ah ha. It was the bench, as we suspected. Also, shiny new layout and code for the official soonersports.com.

    I've already penciled in to do one day of Perine's (10x10) ever other week on bench (205 next). I think the most impressive number on that discussion though was a set of 10 with 315 on incline press. Holy beast mode.

    If they don't hand that boy the ball 35-40 times a game, they're crazy as road lizards. According to Billy Sims, we've got an Earl Campbell clone on our hands. He'll be gone in two years to the NFL Pros. Let's get on his big, strong back and ride it to a couple more championships.
