Bench weight age/height differences

[desant89]

I go to the gym with someone who is 50, 5'8" and 180lbs. I am 37, 6'3" and 255 lbs. I am so tired of his shit talking. He can put up 305, and I can put up 315. he keeps telling me how strong he is pound for pound. To me, he looks like a really little man. He keeps saying age, weight, age weight! Never considers that he competed when he was younger, and works out 5 days a week compared to my 2or 3, and has a great diet compared to my crappy one.

My question is, how much strength do you lose at age 50 if you never stopped training?

Also is your difference in body weight that huge of a difference?

How much easier is it if you are shorter to put up more weight?

Amazing how people think when they are older. He is using every excuse in the book to say how strong he is....I'm 50, I'm only 180lbs, My shoulder hurts.....I just wanted to get some facts from people who have lifted all their lives. Thanks!
