How many times can you put up 225lbs?

**Klash** · 04-08-2008, 10:39 AM

I've never trained for that and don't think I've ever taken 225 to failure (except as a kid) but on cold days I've taken my reps up to 15.

If I had to guess probably around 20.
(before I tore my pec of course)

RIGHT NOW 24 MY BEST A MONTH AGO WS 30. AND THIS IS AFTER I DO INCLINE FIRST. FOR SOME REASON I HAVE TO INCLINE FIRST BEFORE I DO FLAT BENCH. IF I STARTED OUT WITH FLAT BENCH FOR SOME REASON I CANT GET THAT MANY

im not saying that its functional but my co-worker just came back from an NFL try out so we were dicking around.. and the subject came up. I was wondering what you guys put up.

I WOULD OF THOUGHT THAT MORE OF THE NFL GUYS WERE STRONGER

not saying i dont believe most of you but i think we need some video verification for this kind of thread..

Most of those guys at the combine and strength are high 20s to mid 30's from what I remember. So I agree with RolsRoyce that Id like to see anyone doing well over that. Some people are very strong but arent good at bench. I could probably have done 28 or so over the winter but cutting down for spring Ive lost some strength and even more stamina. I am a pretty strong guy but dont consider myself a champ when it comes to the bench. i think people read way to much into it.

BADASZ WHO LIVES BY ME I'LL HAVE HIM COME OVER AND WE WILL GO TO THE GYM TOGETHER. TODAY AFTER INCLINE I DID 20 RIGHT AWAY WITH 225 I HAD 5 MORE IN ME WITHOUT A DOUBT

I agree, 20 - 30 is a feasible number, but people saying 40 - 50, Im not saying there are full of sh*t, Id just like to see it. Like I said, the NFL guys are doing mid 20's to mid 30's during the strength and combine drills. I couldnt see myself getting more than 28-30.
