    I'm kinda weak right now...my 1 rep max is only 120 and normally do 3 sets of 8 reps around 75 pounds. I'd like to bench a minimum of what I weigh at my 1 RM, but I'm workin' on it. I currently weigh 138.

    I'm curently trying to get better in that area. I do 3 sets of 6 at 225lbs now, and I weigh 306 so I have a lot of catching up to do to get to where I can rep atleast as much as I weigh :tongue:

    I weigh 190 and have no idea what I bench. lol If I had to guess, I'd say I could do ONE rep at like 50 if my life depended on it. And this is an estimate based on the fact that my dog weighs 50 lbs. :laugh:

    I can bench press 70 pounds a few times but I don't know what my max is. I've never tried. I'd say MAYBE 100, if that. I'd also love to be able to bench what I weigh, but I don't see it happening anytime soon. I weigh 129 lbs.

    I haven't maxed out since I was in my early 40's(I'm 51 now). I maxed out at about 350 then. I'd be lucky to hit 200 now.

    I hit failure at 70 lbs last week (doing 5x5....got out two sets of five, one set of two, and two sets of one). I weigh 140. To defend such a low weight, I hadn't touched a barbell in my life until about a month and a half ago.

    Then I learned I was flaring my elbows out too much. Ugh.


    Not sure what my max is, though.

    When i was in High School i broke Darren Sproles Bench press record i weighed 143 lbs and bench pressed 315 lbs. That was 3 years ago and havent worked out since then. Just started getting back into it and lifted yesterday for the first time since then and maxed out at 225. How long do you think until i get back to the 300's?

    Being that fresh out of HS and assuming you train hard and eat smart, 3-4 months only. And nice bench PR.

    Current bench is about 120 lbs x1 or 90 x 8 if I'm fresh in my workout. Usually I wait to bench until the middle or end of the workout, and I usually can only do about 70x8 by then. I'm 5'8" and about 180 lbs now. I'd love to be able to bench my body weight.
