How much can you bench press

My one rep max was 290.

Ouch.

Well, at least Monsterstomp isn't on this thread...........

Getting in here @monsterstomp! Make fun of Laflux!

@wolverine08: Uh.... dude I did say how much I can lift, but it isn't in the OP.

I bench more than people who've had sex.

200 pounds

And that's just with his right arm!!

150 and I weigh 145 so I would say that's decent

IDK like 50 pounds. I'm not very fit

275 lbs for 12 reps. But I can definitely do more if i was trying to max out. I've shoulder-pressed 200 lbs before, so I'm not sure but my limit is probably somewhere in the 300's.

Last time I benched I maxed out around 200..but that was 2 years ago and I've been lifting weights ever since. So it's likely higher.

Once I can bench above 145 I will be pretty satisfied

800 grams

@cameron83: Thats a good starting weight.

A Coke bottle. One of the big ones.

1,000,000 lbs.

I have yet to test my one rep max bench press, but don't really care. I'm just working my way up slowly. All I know is I can bench a little over half my weight.

I workout alone, so i don't know my one rap max on the flat barbell bench press. If i had to guesstimate i would say around 250 lbs.

I weigh a rockin' 100 lbs & can bench 180.

I'll take it.

For a 15 years old like me, I could bench 155 lb but thats not my max.

I weigh around 120, used to be able to do 135 for 1 set of 12. (actually with proper form) but doing it the way most people seem to think counts as a bench press 185 easy.

But my labrem is torn in my right shoulder and my rotator cuff in my left. so I don't do bench anymore and would probably be lucky if I could do 100(proper form) the way most people do their bench prob still like 140.

Me working out.

135 lbs on a good day. I'm immune to shame on this topic considering I've been lifting with some pretty buff dudes for years. I'm a bookworm, and a pretty happy one at that.

I thought you were like, 30..

I would also like to see video evidence of some of these claims...

I weigh about 135 and can bench about 200, so, eh I guess

I don't believe anyone's numbers in here at all

With that said, I can bench 600 lbs.

I'm young and muscular!

Maybe if you're comparing yourself to some pansy like Wolverine or Captain whats-his-face.

Don't hate on the muscular dudes brah. Let them inspire you!

Considering that I box, I can't use weights.

Really? I don't know much about boxing, but I thought weightlifting would be beneficial for you guys.

Bench 225lb 12reps 275lb 6reps
Deadlift 495lb 5reps 545lb 1rep
Power Clean 275lb 3reps

Eh, it varies for different people. Some incorporate it into their training, but some don't - I feel it slows me down. I'm naturally big anyways.

Max was around 135lbs. Currently it's more like 115-120.

lol

doont bother with 1 or 2 rep stuff but my routine i do 100kg 12 reps 105kg 10 reps 110kg 8 reps 115kg 6 reps,ill try and do a one rep soon, i reckon maybe 130,140 at a big push not too sure kilos to pounds but its about 1-2.4

Lol I've been slacking lately so now im probably only in the 20-30 ton range, Supes would be ashamed.

175

They should make thread about leg day. People tends to skip leg day.

Now who knows....but in high school when I worked out every day literally for 45 minutes, my max was 160(I weighed 124 at the time) I was actually little under weight but I was like a wolf, slender, medium size but athletic and strong. I used to take out all the kids twice my weight in arm wrestling since I loved doing it.

I hated bench pressing, we had to do it once though at least for a "max lift" as part of our final grade.

Now dumbell lifts and pull ups I used to do all day long lol, I had the record for most pull ups in the whole class of 20. Only did it once though lol, now on my iron gym I'm 150 roughly, getting into it again I have to do sets of 6-8 lol in my older age.

Somewhere between Spongebob and Sheldon Cooper...

Not really too sure, I don't include bench-pressing in my work-outs.

yeah my bench is pooh but I could do 26 pull ups in school and 106 pushups but i'm real skinny.

@youmessinwithme: Yeah I was very slender, still am for my age, size etc I'm where I should be I can do lots of push ups now and pull ups just not as much as I did when I was 18 lol

I would be in the negative number range.

@wildvine: Oh don't talk like that. Negative reps means the bench press lifts you. And for me it's 80. I'm a runner and free diver not a weight lifter.

@impurestcheese:

Maybe it does. Maybe my entire work out regime is me running from an overzealous work out bench.
