    16 - 300lbs
    17 - 325lbs
    18 - 350lbs
    19 - 375lbs
    20 - 400lbs
    21 - 425lbs
    22 - 450lbs
    23 - 475lbs
    24 - 500lbs
    25 - 525lbs
    26 - 550lbs
    27 - 575lbs...

    I realize muscle strength gains fade off...but look what would happen if you added just 25lbs. a year. Like I said, just something to look at whether it's reasonable or not.

    When I was 16 I could do 275lbs. for 6-7 reps. That was just before turning 17 too... You just turned 16 and bench 295lbs! I imagine you must train for strength more than for size.

    Here, lets do just 15lbs a year. VERY reasonable goal...

    16 - 300lbs
    17 - 315lbs
    18 - 330lbs
    19 - 345lbs
    20 - 360lbs
    21 - 375lbs
    22 - 400lbs (pimp weight...)
    23 - 415lbs
    24 - 430lbs
    25 - 445lbs
    26 - 460lbs
    27 - 475lbs...

    Again, just something to look at... An average of just 15lbs a year will put you at an amazing bench press! I'm not sure I'd even want to bench that much...
    May the Lord Jesus Christ bless those who bless me as I gladly accept their blessings, and curse those who curse me all the while protecting me for any evils. In Christ name, amen...

    I just did an easy 4 sets of 6 with a 75lb dumbbell between my feet at 195. No idea what I can do with my bodyweight; I imagine 30 or so.

    Most dips I've ever done was 51 at 202 pounds, no added weight. My fat ass was enough.

    I don't know how much I can do with just my bodyweight, but I did 3 sets of 5 with 130 lbs last week after benching.

    Believe it or not, I cant figure out a way to dangle a fucking dumbell from a dip belt. I mean, you said dangling in your feet, but Id rather have it hang.

    Wrap the chain around the handle a couple of times and then clip it. I like it between my feet, but I'm just weird like that.

    Damn... all you people do so many dips. I (fresh) only got around 17 out at 180 pounds. And at my gym that's a way high amount, most people struggle doing 10. What's your guys definition of a dip? because i mean i'm pretty well built these days, and i'd say there's only 3 guys at my gym that can do more than me, and they're all competition size.

    Don't use my numbers as a comparison. I was being sarcastic. 14-15@BW is my max at 170 lbs on a good day.
