How Much Ya Bench /fit/?
>me: 285lbs at 195 bw. I rarely max out, stick mostly to triples and sets of 5-6. I think I have 295 in me.
Most recently did 5x5 of 255. Last rep of the last set was real grindy. Never bothered to max out.
>I used to bench twice that back in high school
>>37448800
5x5 140 lbs.
I need either more test or swift death
>>37448800
>my dad benched as much as you at my weight and age. I dont even bench what you do ratio-wise.
How to increase strength but not weight..

Dad go away
I hurt my chest earlier this year so im about to get to 2pl8 tomorrow
Hopefully i can do it
like 90 pounds
finally 2pl8 club my bench has always been weak squat and dead are 4pl8 and 5pl8 so it sucks
>sets of 3-5
For what purpose
im hitting 55kg tomorrow for 5x5
>>37448800
I just did 115 3x5. It was my third workout. I dunno if I'm gonna make it, bruhs.
Best I can do is 180pounds for 3 reps. Been lifting 5 months. Be honest, will I make it?
>>37449642
year and a half for a 225 bench for one you have more probability of making it than me
Everyone who posts in this thread will make it.
>>37449659
That's my goal to get by the end of the year. My noob gains have worn off so progress is slow but hopefully I'll get there
>>37449628
it took me 3 months to reach that benching 2x a week, eating and sleeping properly. hope that encourages you
185x4 @ 5'8" 134
>>37448800
235lbs at 190bw

>>37449685

225 at 3x315 no single rm pls
180x4 @ 182lb 6'
Wasn't that hard but that's what I was I was scheduled to do. I've been lifting almost a year now. Can finally rep out bodyweight bench, feels good.

Thanks, it does, I think I bought too much into the BS of people lifting heavy straight away.

1.) Are you natty or not?
2.) How much protein do you get a day?
>tfw fat ever since i was little
>no moar
>eat and lift my way to 335 bench, 445 squat, 505 diddly1RM
>start the never ending cut because i cant stand the fat
>315 is hard as fuck, 275 5x5 is hard as fuck
losing gains hurts so much but my hate for fat is stronger
>tfw cutting for 2 months before I started lifting
>tfw still cutting and can only bench lmao1pl8x3 after lifting for 3 months
At least I've lost 45 lbs since new years and my squat just passed 2pl8

205 bench
>>37448800
im currently doing 5 sets of 10 at 1pl8.
I used to be doing 225 for reps, but I went full retard and went on some sort of near-starvation diet, gains started to stagnate but not drop, but once I got sick and couldn't work out for a week I lost everything.
Pretty much all my weights are shit now, especially my squats thanks to surgery.
