Reply to "Weightlifting and Male Hormone Replacement"

I have lifted over 700 pounds with a j-pouch and have lifted heavy for 8 years with a j-pouch. These days I rarely lift - maybe once a week but I can still lift very heavy weights. A couple nights ago I was shrugging 550 for sets of 20 reps with no belt - I'm sure with a belt I could have gone into the 600's no problem. These days I like to run so the heavy lifting isn't a priority but I'm almost 42 and still have no problem doing it. I'm not saying that everyone's j-pouch is indestructible - I'm just saying that I've pushed myself to the point of my head being about to pop off (sometimes with a lifting belt cranked on as tight as I can get it) frequently for almost 10 years and have never had a j-pouch related problem - so I'm guessing they're tougher in that respect than people think.
