This is the Total Sports America 2000 machine I purchased off of Craigslist from a guy about 2 hours North of Spokane. I paid $185. It did not come with a bench OR any weights. After it was delivered, I was finally able to get it upright after ALOT of twisting, banging and cutting of drywall in my garage.
How it was pictured on Craigslist:
Like baking a cake. I have to gather all of the ingredients. In my journey to bench press 400 pounds, this machine is my oven.
I will need more ingredients, like weights and a bench.
Off to Craigslist I go because trying to buy weights from Sports Authority at $1 a pound is insane.
Even the bench was over $145.
Maybe, in this economy, this is a bad idea. Looking like a Dr. Seuss character may not be so bad.
What am I saying. Only 4 posts in and I am already trying to get out of this. I suck.
I am becoming a Dr. Seuss Character. Blubbery stomach. Receding hairline. I am getting man breasts and everything is beginning to droop. I used to be fairly fit and then I turned 40. I am now 41 and I am going to bench press 400 pounds by the time I am 45. Join me. Follow me. Encourage me. Stop my Dr. Seussing. I am not promoting any product. I am just a middle-aged man, trying to bench press a lot of weight and asking others to join me. My most recent postings are at the top.

I am asking people to join me on this journey. Because I KNOW there are ALOT of men my age who feel as I do. Old and tired and basically giving up. Decreasing testosterone and sagging body parts. We can fight this! Be part of this and set this goal for yourself too!!
