I'm not sure why you keep posting in the Q+A when you aren't asking steroid questions, you're keeping me busy tonight.

[*RAGE*]

[DrSauce99]

ah ****, my bad, I forgot, I only visit this forum... lol I'll use the general BS next time I feel like asking a quesiton like this..

[gymnerd]

"What do you bench? "

Generally either barbells or dumbells.

Same here. I also bench girls. I have also dumbbell benched 2 girls at once on occasion. They have to be considerably lighter than my real dumbbel bench though because of the difficulty in holding them.

^^ if they were to sit on your hand and be gymnasts, they could probably balance it pretty well. i would know since i've done this.

my best would be 270x3 @ 172 and 18yo. since then i have never really maxed and just gone for more reps, usually 210-250 for 8-4ish reps

[gymnerd]

^^ Sexy hot gymnast hoes=nice.

[BgMc31]

These fake I bench so and so threads are hilarious. I want to see pics/vids of a 180lb guy benching 275 for 10.

How much do I bench...TOO MUCH!! Somewhere in the neighborhood of 16-20 tons.

[novastepp]

more than you.

Nah, they weren't gymnasts. One was my friend that I should have dated at the time (dumb story), and the other one was another tiny friend. They had no real sports experience except one played girls' rugby. She is like under 100 lbs. lol

well i was kidding. if i get two hot gymnasts, believe benching them would be low on the list of things i would do

Let me guess, you'd play shuffle board with them, right?

[T_Own]

no way. i prefer pinochle and bridge.

Ah, good choices.

[Brown Ninja]

if I had two gymnasts I'd make them watch me bench 400 for reps and then have them take a dump on my chest

[Brown Ninja]

225x15

classy pick right there. although some gymnasts probably could knock out some reps on that right after you lol.

[JiGGaMaN]

looking good is more important than having a good bench.

[quarry206]

we should just make this a sticky.. so every body can post it once and be done with it...


this has to be the fourth time this thread has come thro the lounge. and i have only been in the AR lounge for about two months (i use to only be in the powerlifting section)

[Bossman]

150 lbs for 6-8 reps.

[redz]

I can hit 275 for 12 reps or 325 for a max rep.

[Hoggage_54]

My internet bench is about 650lbs, 800 on a good day

[D7M]

135lbs for 4 reps. On a good day.

[higherdesire]

You have all inspired me to put a plate on the bar this time, thanks guys! I mean it! I am going to make it go up more than half way this time too! Shoot, I may not even use a spotter the way i feel right now, I am HYPED! YEAH!

[Matt]

I can only manage the bar, thats why im on 1000mg of test everyday....

[johnnybigguns]

I can't believe you guys can manage the bar i can't wait to get that high. Right now I use the 10lb dumbell with both hands hopfully to go for 12lb next week the dbols are starting to kick so I should get it

if you ever plan on getting to where I am on this you need to really take your time. Also diet is a big part of it. You will need to eat. Good luck bro!

[RuhlFreak55]

ROFL......i guess i'm not the only one tired of this kind of thread as 95% of the answers are hilarious bullshitting

[smokethedays]

137.25 lbs for 5-26 reps
28, 6', 230 lbs

[Voland]

used to bench 253 for 5-6 reps @ 21yrs 145lbs.
Didn't feel the chest working at all so i dropped weights by half. Much better now and less injury risk.

[SampsonandDelilah]

looking good is more important than having a good bench.

Yup!!

[Bossman]

I was playing Texas Hold Em at a casino in Detroit and a new dealer sat down. He looked at me and asked, "how much do you bench". I was caught kinda off guard as I was up around $400 and the last thing I was thinking about was bench pressing. I said "150 lbs". He had a confused look on his face. I said, I don't do barbells, only dumbells. Still no comprehension.

Next time---485 lbs.

[J-Dogg]

I don't even do flat right now. I'm trying to build my upper chest more so do heavy incline to start.

And I don't even care how much it is.

This thread reminds me of the 3 douche bags that are always at my gym at 5pm. And brag they are already curling the 50's on the preacher bench. they extend down curls until they have a 90 degree bend in the elbow, they don't even get to the point there is any resistance, just balance the weight back and fourth.

I started going at 7pm now, just to avoid seeing them. drives me nuts. But hey, they are preacher curling 50's with one arm still. Which makes them total ***** magnets.

[Matt]

Its very rare that i do incline bp, and ive never done decline bp. Yet my chest is in perfect proportion, wonder why that is??

[FallenWyvern]

Raw 135. Shirted 185. My friends say I am cheating.

[FireGuy]

I thought only people who didnt go to the gym still asked this question. I can count on one hand (and not use my thumb) how many times I have done flat bench with a barbell in the last 10 years.

[Jfew44]

45lbs. Im working up to 2 1/2s on each side to make it an even 50.
4'11"
92lbs
Also Im trying to bulk. Will dbol do it for me?

[ni4ni]

Nothing now-rotator cuff surg.
