The other thread turned into too much of a sausage fest.

    The leg press is my forte, so there's a high chance. :tongue: Bench press, probably not...
  • Can I show off and turn it into a strongest man type lift and say I can probably leg press all the women on the platform together so far? :)

    Very few people can beat me on leg press. I hit 1 rep with 26 plates last year using the Planet Fitness machine. Yes, coming to 90 degrees. My legs still don't look impressive which sucks. Must be my height that gives me the leverage.

    I'd say yes! 160kg on level press and 180kg on Incline

    blue yes - def no to andy tho, thats like a ronnie coleman amount of plates

    if I leg press first in a workout its 7-8 plates per side, but I usually do it after squats and for high reps so its like 5-6 per side

    it would be close..... i would say it would be a toss up on who had a better day that day. on leg days i do leg press 3rd or 4th movement after back squat, front squat, and alternate with stiff leg deadlifts. usually do 4 sets 4-6 reps with 980lbs. so fresh i could probably push out over 1200 on a good day would be my guess. i may be over or even underestimating that, not sure.
