Nice to be lifting in a proper gym back stateside.

I’m 273 and fairly lean.

There are a couple guys there who make me look small.

Lots of guys who make me look weak.

250lb dumbbells. And yes, a guy who can rep them out.

Welcome back to the States Jin.

Doing reps with 250lb dumbells no matter what the movement is indeed a reality check! And impressive!
Not even on my best days! LOL!

Eh, let’s keep it real. There were guys there considerably smaller than you that looked at you and thought damn! You see how big that dude is?

Yeah there’s always gonna be bigger stronger guys, but you’re right there with em.

Sometimes it’s good to feel small, makes you wanna work that much harder.

Back in the day when I was young (I’m not a kid anymore) 160s were too light, but that’s all I could cram on the DBs... can’t imagine repping 250s... have to get an assist to even begin.

Wow 250s are sick. I’ve never seen anyone use more than 150s. Guy did 3 sets of 20 with them though.

I think I've seen quite a few movies of Godzilla tearing up the states. Let's just hope they let you leave. Enjoy your time here
