Nothing yet, just started lifting about a month ago. My trainer has me on machines and a few dumbbell exercises right now. We will be changing it up some this week maybe bench press is going to be part of the new routine.0

Back flat benching about 3 months
Currently at 142.5 for 3 reps
Not tried 1rm0 -
Last time I tested 1RM was a few cycles ago and was 120lbs. My new training max will move up to 123 this week, so I would assume it has gone up since then0

1rm in the gym is 97.5. Bar speeds recently though point to maybe finally breaking through the 100 mark.
I'm gonna add that this is in kg, not lb.2 -
Last good attempt in competition was 52.5 kg. I could have gone for 55 kg, but stayed conservative. I'm aiming for 60 kg for August.0

Not so much what was on the bar, but the patience and confidence to grind this one out and get a successful 3rd attempt — even though not a platform PR.4

That was an AWESOME grind.1

I love the arms and legs shaking and the body English behind it. Locking it out makes it all worth it.0 -

I do 5 sets of 10 at 95 as part of an interval circuit. Haven't tried 1 rep max in over a year. It was 125 then. Now I'm waiting until I'm no longer in a deficit and move to recomp to try and to up my set weight. 6 more pounds fo lose then it's on.0

I am thrilled to say I can bench 155. Took a while to work-up to it2
