    Any help with Bench.

    Currently for the summer I am strictly trying to lose weight but my bench has come to my attention and I have never been good at it, and to be honest I have never tried hard on it either.

    Right Now I weigh 209 and am 6'1 I can do one 45lbs one each side with no problems and if I add one 10lbs on each side I struggle at it but still manage.

    As for eating this is my eating:

    Meal 1:
    one egg + 4 egg whites
    1/2 cup of oats
    .5tbs of olive oil
    2 fish caps
    1 apple

    Meal 2:
    1/2 cup of cottage cheease
    walnuts

    Meal 3:
    Tuna without mayo wrap or on a wheat bread 6"

    Meal 4:
    2 eggs +4 egg whites
    .5tbs olive oil

    Meal 5:
    3/4 cup of oats
    Whey
    2 fish caps

    After workout:
    Whey
    banana

    My question is I am not maxing out with anything and the movements I am doing are to get me the cut I am going for and to lose weight, is it possible to get my bench up to 200lbs by end of summer with the diet I am currently on.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try DB's and Incline presses. What does your chest routine look like? How is the rest of your program?
