Why's the DB bench so low? It doesn't match the rest of your lifts.

Add me on facebook!

My DB bench sucks to..but yah I agree I noticed the same thing, that's crazy you can OH Press with 50's but flat bench with 55's

From looking at your workouts your doing a pretty good job, but I would seriously consider adding more rear delt and back exercises otherwise your shoulders are going to roll over...

could you reccomend some exercises? I could try to, but im pretty limited with time already when im in the weightroom

got sent home today from school, my left eye was killing me this morning, during homeroom i went down to the nurse and she sent me home. went to the doctors when I got home and he said he cant see any scratches or anything, but im out of school 'til Monday, so I might possibly lift at home tomorrow

so I did go to school today, but we ran so I had to lift at home.  We did a mile indian run, pretty brutal, I need to get back in shape haha. But I attempted a bench max out.

10x105
5x135
3x150
1x170
1x185
1x215
0x225 & 220

happy? yea i'm very happy, my bench increased 40 lbs since I maxed out around the beginning of December after football season.  There's much more room for improvement, but I'm content with where i'm at right now.

Also went for a hang clean max, probably not the best idea, but I was hungry for more.

hang clean (max-out)
6x135
4x155
1x175
1x185
0x215
1x215 (was really disappointed about the set before that, so I got real intense and threw it up)
1x220
0x225 ..one more attempt
0x225 :(
didn't get it but I didnt even expect to get 215, so im very happy.  I'm happy with both of my maxes, especially with clean, since I just benched.

*wanted to max out in squat too, but my weight set only goes up to 300 lbs at home, so we'll have to wait until school for that one.

Current Stats:
5"10
182 lbs

Bench max: 215
Hang Clean max: 220

maxed out today at school in bench, first I did 215 got that easy, then I tried 220 and I got that, I was gonna go for 225 but decided against it, since I didnt think I had that great of an opportunity to get it.  Maxing out in hang clean and squat also this week
