How much can you bench?!?
« on: May 02, 2005, 02:26:55 PM »
I just rep'd 190 twice at the end of my usual workout!!  Not exactly manly, but after all my health problems the last few years, I'll take it!!  Who's the strongest BallReviewer??

Gene J Kanak has a pretty good one, I maxed out at 350 or so in High school but that was weight training class and football everyday I am a lazy fat a_ss now I be lucky to get 200.  My school had a few guys over 400 though I think 425 or so was the record maybe 435.

*Edit in school my weight was 215 to 225 depending on which year it was,  I am scared to look at the scale now but I am around 260 to 275 I would say.  I am sadly only 6ft tall.

Sigh I wish I could find more time to exercise.  I'm always busy with piano and of course, bowling.  I worked out for about 4 months last year (when I had time) and I was able to get up to 135.  I'm 5'6 180lbs.

absolutely NO IDEA! But they say you should be able to do your own body weight, but I'm out of shape, so maybe 150?

I work out with 225, but max at 400 when I'm really woring out.
Leg press on the hip sled is about 1200 encluding the sled (450 for the sled,
the 10 plates on each side)

I don't know,

G_Things got me on the bench.  I might have him on legs, but then again it takes
all of that to move around 325 poundslol
