    Finally got 3plate bench

    Ive been doing incline bench the entire summer with my partner. WHen i left school i could do 275 for 3 and 300 for 1 and 315 for 0. today i tried bench for 1st time all summer and i got 315 for 2.
    what do you think i can lift for 1 (1RM)? 330?

    What size dumbbells can you put up? I am interested in the ratio people have from barbell to dummbell.
