+ 1 What can you bench?
ad
Okay, as there is nothing in this section yet I thought I would start the ball rolling with the old cliche "What can you Bench" Not sure if it's in the right section but it's strength related so I figure it can go in here.
Please put what you can bench completely unassisted either for reps or 1 rep Max.
Feel free to put your body weight as I think someone who is 11 stone benching 100K is more impressive than a 16 stone lump benching 130K.
My best to date is 140k (approx 310lb) for 8 reps.

waltr265 is my max at 189 =/
225 on incline =/
both are 1rm barbell
I dont really bench but the most i ever done is 3154 on incline barbell and 120s10 on incline dumbbell @190lbs
Not Enough! Aweful 225 bench, and just starting back lifting after two years.
Iam 5.7" 220lb I bench 365lb 4reps
Ive done 415 on more than a few occasions. Thats my max though.
i havent really tried for 1rm yet on this cycle, but precycle at 174 pounds my 1rm was 370 which i think is amazing cause its a little over 100% of my body weight.
since on cylce im at 200 pounds and i have done 315 for 11 reps. I have always been a very naturally strong guy. i have done 165 for 2 reps on barbell curl, and i didnt cheat, im super strict on forum, if my form goes out i quit. and i keep a spotter to just watch my form
i just finished up a big set of squats this past week after 2 light warm up sets of 95 pounds x 20 reps I started at 225X12, 255X10, 275X10 315x8 than i did 345 X1
i figure my 1 squat max is around 400 or a little over. not sure. been having issues with my lower back so i havent been dead lifting. but i do love clean presses, and i can get 225x3 on a good day at the end of my set
I'm 43 and recently put up 655 (RAW). Never touched steroids or other PED's.
Starting to get a little tougher with age, so I'm going to see what a few cycles will do.
Wow, pretty impressive, I wish I had genetics like that.
I'm 55yrs old and just took second place in my first run in the open division.( 7 wins in the masters division) I popped a 345 at a 170lb. That's on just 300mg of test weekly. Btw, the winner was a 27yr old (little bastard lol)
475lbs x 1, 455x2 425x3 405x5 clean.
365x15 on pro-hormone
Have not yet tried with Test but hope to soon.
5'8 264lbs 29% bf
E
32 years old 6'1 225 315x8 365 for 1
Well 4 months later 33 years old 6'1 255lbs 135x15, 225x8 2 sets,315x6,365x2,395x1
24 years old, 6'3" 220 lbs, got in 465 once
11 stone 2 and I can bench 110 kg 8 reps with good form I. Scared to try anymore until I get bigger lol, will be entering the summer ebc so watch out for me to break that record
405 x's 5 natural. 460x's 5 during cycle
b4 my first cycle i could bench 95 kg at 12-14 reps with perfect form at at 10.8 stone after 1 year of training its nothing massive but made me feel like hee man when my mates where juiced up and doing less weight with worse form love it lol worlds away from 46 reps at 96kg tho
Was at the bodypower event in the uk this year and they held a contest for the most bench presses of your body weight, the guy who won it did 46 reps at 96KG.
Pretty impressive, the next closest was about 39 reps.
CleyonThat's pretty cool. I'm going to see how many times I can bench my body weight tomorrow. I know I've got 20 (it's part of my chest routine), I wonder if I can break 30. Getting through that lactic acid burn can be a biatch.
184 lbs week 8 of test e 1 rep max last week 405 no spotter
shirlsguyNo longer remember, will re-visit in 16 weeks.
CleyonWeigh 210 (today), benching 325x2 I need to get in the 400 club...
currently at 325 x 3 reps. havent really focused on benching up until april. (started lifting and my cycle in late dec) mostly focused on deadlifts.
380 X 3 - no juice
bw- 300+
NIce
I will be 43 in two months I weigh 325 lbs. A week ago I did 455x8 500x8 then did 565x1 no bull shit
23 year old, 211lbs; Currently benching 400lbs x3
Anon325 lb. 1RM before I got hurt @ about 192 lbs. NATURAL no gear involved. To be fair I noticed on the video of it my ass lifted maybe 2 inches off the bench, so if you want to be technical 315 was my 1RM
Since getting hurt, haven't lifted heavy once not worth it :'(
Currently benching 180kg x 6 reps unassisted, 8 reps assisted.
This is 2 weeks after comp and carbed up at 111kg
Max 220kg x 3 reps. I weighed 120kg at the time and pinned 100mg test suspension in each pec pre workout.
Expecting to bench 200kg when im back on my cycle. Currently running pct.
Very impressive bro... some big numbers
Impressive!
Im curious - whats that bench translate into press?
I use dumbells.
Incline 30kg DBs for 10
Flat 32.5kg DBs for 8
I don't usually do 1RM. Last time I repped I got 225lbs x 30 at 275 about 20% bf.
My best raw bench is 390 lb ( about 177.5 kg) at 235 lb, all natural. I haven't juiced yet, but that's going to change soon. I suspect my bench will fly through the roof
How many people are posting legitimate bench reps though? I see people throw weight on the bar and never do a full rep, and claim they're a xxx lb bencher!
haha thats true bro, it looks like their doing shrugs and calling it a one rep max.
See the same thing every day- dude pushing 4 plates (405 lbs) maybe 3 inches and calling it a workout. Some coaches will have guys do partial reps to help with a sticking point but for a real workout still needs to touch your chest, stop, then push till your arms are straight. I'm not a big bencher by any means but my 430 max is with a pause at the bottom
Its not about the weight you lift, Its how well you can do it. If you got that pause at the bottom that's breaching into three modes of strength; negative force, stationary and positive. 430 is awesome weight for a one rep max. Bro I weigh 280 pounds and only lift 473 for a one rep max (that's with the pause, heaps of peaps bounce it off their chest). Keep up the good work bro.
40 year old, 6" 230lbs 12% fat. Flat bench 355lbs 7 reps 430lbs x1. Low dose test c 500mg each week Deca 100 mg each week for joint pain and now 40mg each day anavar. The 430 bench felt easy but at my age I won't push higher for 6 weeks or so...
Does the deca help with the shoulder pain
Yes it does. 200 mg per week is ideal for the joints. For me.
Does anyone know Bobby Seabold, he was 198 and benched 650 with a pause no arch no bench shirt just raw, he was a good friend of mine, i told him what to take and where to get it, good ol Dr Kerr and Jaycott back in the day 650 with a pause that was a strong guy him and his brother both in wrestling around 160 to 170 could bench 365 6 times in high school, they were just built to bench but when it came to dumbell work, it was amazing how normal they were, i was way stronger on dumbell work, but could never bench what they did, but then again they could never to reps with 315 behiend the neck press either like i could, but bench they were animals Boby and Stormy wow, cool guys! i miss them days the 80's rocked
140 kg body weight, raw bench 230 kg.
