Yeah, definitely. That is an excellent bench. What do you deadlift?

If u weigh 165 pounds benching 365. Then hell yea u could compete. U might even set state records. Remember u have to bring the bar down controlled and hold i on chest and then press and lockout the rack it. I've never heard of anyone under 18 weighing that weight over 240. Why dont u try getting a video of this. That would be awesome to watch. Are u taking anything ?

thankz bro, yah i competed in this lil bench competition at the ymca, i was 16 then and i had ot do it controlled hold on my chest for about half a second, and couldnt move my lower body at all, i ended up maxing that day at 285. I will try to post some pics of me putting up 365. not just me holding it lol like some guys try to do. I will actually have it step by step. Thanks for the posts thoguh fella's

That is a very good lift if it can be done with form... it would take the Wisconsin state APA record here.
