Just wondering..how much you bench vs. your weight.

[b@d @pple]

i weigh about 205 and max'd at 260...3 reps only!

[sebastianHoff]

kinda old thread im 16 weight 170 bench max is 270 and i can do 18 reps of 185 my max leg press is 947

i dont think i our press machine will hold 900lbs. id like to try though.

i dont think i our press machine will hold 900lbs. id like to try though.

ours holds over 1k i know that for sure. I watched another guy do 1005

I legpressed like 1100 something at the gym, we had to go to the machine that had two sets of racks per side to fit enough 45's lolol.

5'6" Weigh 132lbs Max out 145lbs Work out with 4x6 110lbs. I just started working out so I am quite the weakling lol.

ok i went in the gym and tried it this morning, ours only holds 800lbs and i did that 6.25 times, got a girls phone number in the process though. i figure if i really wanted to i could get 2 200lbs guy to sit on the machine and that'd be like 1200lbs, maybe i'll try that.

i am 185lb, i maxed at 315 bench. that pretty good? consider i am asian, most asian are short and skinny. haha

Weigh 245 bench 375 max, 225 x 30, squat 405 25 times, hack squat 900 x 10. I agree that the max not a good measure of strength, but is more common.
A good guide is 225 on the bench, and 405 on the squat... Also safer, less injuries.

[1SwollDude]

[AtifSajid]

We'll the only thing that has changed with me since i started this thread is im lucky if you find me benching, its usually my burnout with 135lbs only, but yesterday i got the urge to bench, and I maxed out at 235lb. weight still 190lb.

[redrumracer]

when i was working out i could squat 440(never maxed out), bench 300. im 5'10" and 300 lbs

lol its funny though, i look at what some of yall max with and its what i warmed up with. it doesnt help any that all through out highschool i had a class dedicated to lifting weights for football.
