Re: How much can you lift: Bench Press
I managed a one off incline for 140k last night, cant do flat bench anymore since my shoulder fecked up (1 year ago).

Its a real pitty because I could do 140kg then (Natural), and I often wonder what I would be lifting now (With juice) if I hadnt injured myself...........

Re: How much can you lift: Bench Press
I can do 15 reps (quite easily) at 36-41kg.

I can do 2 or 3 reps of 64.5kg but put 25-50kg as that is what i do when i train (im just startning out)

I cannot get the bar down to my chest though unless the weight is 30kg or below so i do it to about 2 inch above my chest.

Re: How much can you lift: Bench Press
Just joined so hello everyone! I've been training for 4 months now and I have benched 180kg for 4 reps. Strange really I can do the same weight doing the shoulder press as well. Shame my shoulders mucked up at the minute I'd like to try abit more.

I recently did the 100kg for reps test for American Football and managed 10 at BW of 81kg, all reps touched the chest but no pause between.

Re: How much can you lift: Bench Press
140kg for 8 , 160 for 2-3 (straight after the 140kg for 8) , not tried any other, any thoughts on how i should go about attempting the max lift (i.e do a light set then the max?) not realy attempted a max alone for quite some time. weight approx 16st 4
