bench press

[beej 0]

I realize that big guys are 'relatively' rare in this sport, but any of you guys or gals have a good high poundage bench press? (or high strength to body weight ratio even).

I bench 275lbs for reps. Deadlift 405lbs for reps and Squat 405-450lbs for reps (varies on how I feel that day).

Those numbers will most likely continue to go up as time goes on...atleast that's my goal.

Previous injuries have left chronic shoulder mobility & pain issues, so I've found the limited range of the decline bench for heavy weights the most comfortable (plus you can press more & cheat more)

I weigh 185; decline bench: 350lb max; 315 lb up to 6 reps;295lb up to 10 reps (Flat bench 275lb, clean but no reps);

Leg work & dead lift is mostly restricted to the machines (with decent weight using knee brace) because Ortho said I tore my left ACL 9 months ago.

Stay consistent and you WILL see rewards at any age(actually makes aches & pains easier to deal with). I've had a substantial improvement over the last two years since I started again at 51.

I have bench pressed 360# when I was lifting every day ... today? I MIGHT get up 300#, but hey, I'm almost 50! NOt bad for a "has been"!

I'm partial for Crispy Creams If we work out hard enough, maybe we could lift the jelly/pudding filled ones, but that might be pushing it For now, I'll stick to the glazed

When I was in college, I could bench 315+ and military 225+. (The plus was because it was a heavy set of 3 reps). Now,

I've been doing bench press for about 40 years now. Being small boned, about 5'7", small joints, I don't have much hope of ever being a power lifter, but we can all improve. Many years ago I did a max of around 250 on bench. Dead lifted around 405 once. Nothing to brag about, but I still like to lift.....Steve1

Yeah I weighed 185 when I got out of the Marines and could easily press 250 in reps but now after 13 years I weigh 210 and prolly couldn't press 115 in reps

I'm a bodybuilder. Not pro, I'm not cut enough to compete. Working towards it though.

My current max bench is 345 lbs
I have a goal of 400 lbs, but I'm at least a year from that if not more.

I'm 5' 10 1/2" & 205 lbs

[sdgregory 0]

well damn, I could only dream of doing that . . . but I am too lazy to work out. Besides I built my body now over 13 years. A lot of hard work doing nothing and I am not about to give up on it now

I'm hell on 12 oz curls!

[sdgregory 0]

How reps you do with 12 oz?

[Luv2Fall 0]

Depends upon who is buying lol.

I can benach press myself off the bench to get another beer out of the cooler! Does anything else really matter?
