Goal Reached
I was shooting for a bench press of 100 lbs over my weight and I got it today. I did 245 for 1 rep without a spotter, so I may of been able to do 2 but I didn't want to risk it.
Next goal is to gain 20 lbs and be able to bench press 285. First goal reached...245 at 145 lbs |

If I were to guess based on the fact that I haven't been in the gym for 6 months:
Age 24 Weight 145 BF% 9 Bench 165 Arms 15" Squat? I'm most likely a giant vagina |

why try and gain weight, your so close might as well keep going for the double BW press.

Nice pressing. Start doing some straight strength training and get that double bodyweight press!

I hit 255 today. I think I could of got 265, but oh well. I'm slowly getting to that double body weight bench press. I think i'll be able to get it in a year or so...Hopefully.

Kenwood, i'm not trying to talk shit but for some reason I think you are lying. I have noticed you move up in weight like you're on a cycle. It seems like every two weeks you add 10 lbs to all your lifts. If you can really do what you say you can do, kudos, but if not please stop lying. there is no reason to lie, all it does is hurt yourself. Keep up the good work though |

I suck at high reps because I rarely train my bench press with that kind of weight. I'm used to going heavy which is prolly y my endurance sucks.
