I'd like to bench 500 by the end of next summer.
 
I gotta change my bench form a lot. I now touch and bounce and my shoulder kick out.
 
I'd like to go down with elbows in and keep them that way and touch with a pause every rep.

maxed out on monday at 160. i know i am weak. funny thing though, last time i maxed out a month and a half ago i maxed out with 120. i workout with a machine by the way, but i went to a friends house and we did maxes with ol fashioned bar and bench, since we had each other for spotters, and i ended up doing a 2 rep max with 160 and that was just the weight. dont know how much the bar weighed so i wont add it. i still cant figure that one out.

jerics that is prety damn bad ass weight for your size, when I lean out this summer I should be at 210-215 and I want to be pressing 315 in set, with the progress I have been making I should be there.  I have been adding 20 lbs to my workout weight about every 4wks

Yea, I usually like to warm up with 20 or 30 reps at 500 lbs.  I'll max it at around 800.  I'm still incredibly weak, but I'm getting there.

u would be benching about 1000 of u could do 500 for 30 reps.
 
I know this guy who probably can bench 500 for 20.
 
Horace Lane, I lift with him every saturday..he won IPF world masters bench press championships. His warm-up consists of 135x12, 225x12, 315x10, 405x10, 495x6...put bench shirt on....585x2.....then he does his sets with like 7 plates or so...he only weighs about 273.

I swear to god, we have been lifting together for like 3 or 4 weeks. He does his warm-up at 495 for 5 with ease.
 
Maybe I was exaggerating...but he can do at least 500 for 15.

If I could bench 500, I'd call it a quarter ton not 500 lbs.
