I got it 15 times in March. My arm has been bothering me though so I don't get crazy anymore, I stay in the 5 rep range, and float around 225-275 range.

Going through my notes looks like I got 2 sets of 10 reps at the beginning of the year when I was about 40 lbs. heavier (mainly fat). Be curious to see how many times I can rep it after I'm done with this strength routine I'm doing. I'm hoping to hit 300 1RM on the bench at 160lbs. BW after I'm done with this routine. We'll see. I always feel like I have a strong chest until I get on here and see John's avatar and stats. :p

last year during the nfl combine a guy asked how many times i thought i could bench 225...i said i wasn't sure and didn't care...but then i secretly went and did it that night. got 23 reps. figure i could hit 25+ now but probably won't try any time soon.

So your 1RM on bench is well over 400lbs, ne-c'est pas?

I would like to think it is...but I don't ever max on anything. I lift alone and within the confines of my specific workout. Like I said...I was curious how many times I could do it...so I tried it out. That was 23 by myself...had I had a spot, I probably could have gotten 25 I imagine...but didn't want to get stuck.

I would imagine with your warm up and max you should be pushin the 30's at 225?

damn, what is your max and how much do you weigh lol.

don't have a max. weigh around 240ish.

0. Maybe in a few months. I don't know my maxes, I haven't maxed since I started, April. 02. Maybe I should do that.

My warmup set is 275. I can hit that 20 times, easily.

I can do 315 at least 15 times.

I'd never try to max out reps on 225 cuz it'd kill my workout energy and uhh yeah... I'm not a prospective NCAA football player or anything where that number would benefit me.

one word

BEAST!

You've only been lifting 3 weeks and can bench 200? Either you're 300+ lbs or full of it

i currently weigh 170 but i used to be up around 220 but not in the good way (fat ass) and i work a lot of hard labour so maybe that all balances out....?

Not all of us are huge and buff like you Jon.

Edit: I think that would totally freak out some guys in my gym if I started repping even 65s.

Same here, haha.

No.

But it'd be surprising
