Re: How much can you lift: Bench Press
136kg+olympic bar : 2 reps. ( 5 1/2 years ago tho )

62 1/2 kg dumbells for 2 reps last year. Back on the 57 1/2kg ones now doing 3 -4 reps and hoping to get to 65kg's in 3 weeks or so.

Think I am finally getting to where I was when I was 22 years old!

what can you do for one set or 6 of 8 reps? Seems alot of spare energy/power going to waste there.

smith machine doesnt really count... doesnt require good form and use of stabiliser muscle groups. And bars vary from machine to machine..olympic bars are 45 pounds....although i dont think thats generaly included in how much you can lift.

still....thats a pretty good weight mate

Re: How much can you lift: Bench Press
25kg, 20kg and 10kg plus the Olympic bar I did 2 reps solo and and another 4 with a spotter, so 6 reps at 130kg. I still consider that as my 1 rep max though.
