At 180-190lbs what do you bench?

bingo!

im curious what each individuals cycle looked like when they benched their max? at 181lbs at a PL comp i put up 315 raw as my third lift. i was taking 300mg/wk test p, 300mg/wk tren a, and i popped like 80mg of fluoxymesterone that day.

I do 275 for 5, and 225 for about 12 and Im about 190 5"11. Bench is my weakest lift but I can dead 505 no problem for reps so that makes up for it.

505??? Jesus you're strong dude!

6'3", 215 lbs, 12% bf

My bench max is right around 300, no AAS. I've always been weak with bench press, though. It's tough being 6'3" with long ass arms. Have to lift heavy as possible and eat like a horse to get stronger. Come a long way as my max was probably at least 50 lbs less a year ago.

**Devils Advocate** · 07-20-2011, 03:35 PM

Yeah I'd say. my biggest problem with heavy ass deads is my grip.

50lb increase in less than a year clean is one hell of an accomplishment.

**Jman123** · 07-20-2011, 03:42 PM

It was all about the eating. The better I eat, the more I lift.

I haven't lifted to find my max but i'm guessing at 315x5 reps i'm getting close. I was lifting 235x8 reps naturally 5 months ago. I'm in week 9 of test e 600mg/wk now. No kicker. God bless test!

Good point, I agree

**mani_bono** · 07-20-2011, 04:54 PM

weight: 178lbs
benching 110 kg (including 20 kg bar) for 8 reps.

**guitario** · 07-20-2011, 05:06 PM

This should be related to height. 180lb bodyweight at 5ft 8 is going to be a lot stronger than 5ft 11 at same bodyweight. My friend is 6ft 1, 200lbs ish and can do 177.5kg bench for one rep natural.

**FCVtec** · 07-20-2011, 06:07 PM

I am 5'7'' 196 (was at 200 but on pct now

)
I do 275 for 12 usually with no prob,315 x5 my max was 365 x2 clean thou, no back bending or bounce off chest crap.

**mfkr2** · 07-20-2011, 07:46 PM

im 130 pounds and my max bench is 105kg, really want to get double my weight though

Thats bizarre! You're a freak of nature dude. Someone get this guy a leash!

I can only get 225 for like 6 bro. Still a lot better then years ago.

**mfkr2** · 07-20-2011, 08:34 PM

well thanks, i think

**turkishexpress** · 07-20-2011, 09:33 PM

I usually bench 405 for a three rep max on "show off days" when I'm in the 260-290lbs range. I know its not impressive but I never really trained for power. I see smaller guys benching more with smaller chests so it doesn't really bother me. I actually applaud it.

If you have trouble with grip on your last set of deads try doing a set of 20 with a lighter weight helps build grip strength. also farmers walks really work well.

I always use chalk or without it I wouldnt be able to hold onto the bar...hands get to sweaty. Also not sure how you grip the bar? but try one hand over hand and the other under....works alot better!

**cb714** · 07-20-2011, 10:12 PM

My max was 365 lbs at my peak. I was weighing 210 lbs and all natural. Can't wait to see where I get to now on my 1st cycle I just started

Not impressive? Turk 405lb is wetarded weight.

Bench shirts are cheating ass bullshit. Yeah sure you may have to know how to use them, and if you are good enough WITH a bench shirt you can add 100-300lbs on your bench press.
