i haven't benched since high school -- i was doing something in the range of 10 reps of 120lbs (I weighed about 160 then). now I weigh about 175 and i can do about 25 elevated (feet elevated) dumbbell pushups. anyone know how pushups translate to bench weight?

An extremely douchey and riskalicious thread, I know. But curiosity did kill the cat, right? Or something like that.

Just wanted to see how brotastic you guys at DTF really are.
The Idea is to post the maximum weight you have ever been able to bench.

Anyway, here is my legitimate, honest set of max bench presses:

  • Flat: 210 lbs
  • Incline: 185 lbs
  • Decline: 225 lbs

Post yours if you want, or have a sandwich. They are located on page 2 of this thread. One per person, please.

Where the fuck are the sandwiches?

For a second there, I thought you were making a joke about banning me. You know: bahn mi = ban me. I almost cried :'(

205 pounds. I was weighting 155 pounds.

Now I'm pretty sure I can bench 215.
Jesus Christ himself* comes down amidst a choir of 2 billion angels singing Handel's Hallelujah chorus. As KrotchRaut shred randomly on guitars made of dragon bones using picks made from God's kidney stones, Jesus heals a blind woman who promptly gives birth onstage to a creation of pure light.

*Yes, Jesus Christ himself. Nothing less will do.

I can lift a full keg (about 165 lbs.).  Does that count for something?
