Have not bench pressed in about 4 years. Max then would have been 250-260. I have completed 1 round of p90x and started a modified round 2. Had the opportunity to do bench press and decided to see how high I could go.

315 I maxed out.

    If you want to get a better max try working you legs. Sounds silly but, I tried it and when I worked my legs my bench went from 315 to 365 in about a month. Good luck.

    DUDE! That is incredible. Congratulations. I hope to get into lifting hard once I lose another 40 lbs. Looking forward to moving lots of iron like that. Truly inspiring !

    That was my max bench in high school when I weighed 260 lbs. Now it has dropped to around 260. I will definitely be working towards the 300 Max bench again but my main goal is running. Lowering the metabolic rate.
