like the NFL combine.
I work with a guy that is 255 and was the starting D-end for University of Indiana and he puts it up 28 times.
I can put it up 16 times.
I usually do 4 sets of ten with it.

lol not that good !
Funny you mentioned this, because my partner and I did this two weeks ago. Got it 23 times.
I wish I would have done this over the winter. Cutting down now so Im not quite where i was 3 months ago in the strength dept
I never hang out that long at 225. I'm always pushing for 405 again (had hand surgery and am just getting back to lifting). I can get 225 or 12 or 14 easily enough though . . . maybe I oughta try it some day just for giggles.
never tried to max out reps with 225. i can do 4 sets of 10 with 235. (usually only get 7-8 on last set though)
42
Don't know right now, I just usually hit it for a few reps as I'm warmin up. At one time I did it for 20 but I haven't done many reps for quite some time so I know I'd be burnt before that.
In truth, I dont see the point for anyone thats not a professional lineman, lol. It certainly doesnt fall in line with any of the fundemental approaches to BBing or even PLing...
Seems like it would put a great deal of load on the shoulders during the later reps and that just tempts injury a little too much for my taste...
my best is 31, right onw however I am only around 27. My buddy can do it right at 50, give or take one or two reps depending if he has been training with reps. He is 265 though I am only 190
I warm up with it for 20 but never tried to max with it
Exactly! Even if we dont look at the increased chance for injury just the extended soreness is an issue. It forces an interruption in training which can blow a schedule completely.
Personally I dont train when sore. Even a little. Soreness is my bodies way of telling me its not at 100%. Well, when I train I DEMAND 100% and it cant give it if it doesnt have it. In your case, i'd have had to take a WEEK OFF . . . not worth it man.
I just did this on incline last week (I dont bench) and I got 29, almost 30 but missed it. Id say on flat Id be about the same.
IVE DONE 5 SETS OF 10
ALWAYS WITH BREAKS IN BETWEEN
