When I was 195 I could do 335 for 2 so I guess it would be about 350, which would be my best percentage. Right now I think I could get 300-315 at a weight of 205, prolly get over 350 if I wanted to train for it, but I don't.


If sense were common, everyone would have it.

I have maxed 600lbs but I am superior to most people that first workout, I could bench 350lbs (within the first 4 weeks of training) just from construction work.

There's a lot of jacked e-lifters around here. Some of these claims are making me laugh. I think we should have pics of some of these 400lb. lifts but of course none exist.

To answer the question, I haven't flat benched in two years so I have no idea.


Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot.

The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do.

Dude, you should see BB.com, the average person claims like national record lifts for there weight class. I would be one of the weakest kids on that site lol, and I am training for a state powerlifting record.

I didn't see an options for 600+... So 985 x 4. The 4th one was hard.

You're pretty weak. It usually takes no less than seven reps for that weight to get hard for me.

In the past year, kenwood, has gone from 145lbs at 14 years old, to 175lbs at 17 years old...Apparently math wasn't required in the high school he failed out of.

400 is not that big of a deal when you are talking about a group of hundreds who have lifted for years. I think you are just a bit jealous. Go to some of the other sites where a 20 inch arm and a 500 bench is the norm....I think this site is more honest than any other I have seen yet.


70% Plus are in the 200-300 range, I find that very realistic.
