in 5 years

[Beam73]

can my chest press 160 kg 8 reps in 5 years ??

 

[ZECH]

1) How old are you now
2) how much do you weigh now
3) How much is 160 kg is pounds?

 

[Scotty the Body]

It's 360lb db806.

No I'm sorry Beam, you won't be able to do that in 5 years. hehe J/K

Anythings possible!! Go for it!!

 

[Beam73]

my age is 28
and i weigh 200 pounds
160 kg = 400 pounds

 

[Robboe]

160k = 352lbs. ~hands scotty a cookie~

And yes it is possible.

 

[Scotty the Body]

1 kg = 2.25lb I goofed its 360 not 352 hehehe oops.

 

[Shmoo]

160kg x 2.2046 = 359.36

 

[Mule]

Hell I went from doing 135 4 years ago to doing 300 easily. If a dip shit like me can you could.

 

[Tank316]

but scotty, you got a cookie out the deal, how cool is that!!!!

 

[I Are Baboon]

All I know is, all this math is making my head hurt.

 

[Robboe]

i thought 1kg was 2.2lbs straight?

 

[Scotty the Body]

Hehehe, to late, I ate the cookie!!

Thats what I though, but a 45lb plate says 20kg on it so that works out to 2.25lb per 1kg.
Hmmmmm, I'm to lazy to check someone else do it.

 

[hurtyhair4u]

You'll never do it man !!! GIVE UP NOW !!! j/j


You put forth the effort and you'll see results

 

[Tank316]

if you spend your time, focus and all your energy towards benching, yes, anything's possible.but try not to neglect your other bodyparts though.

 

[craig777]

1 lb = 0.4536 Kg

so 160Kg = 352.73lbs

I have never seen a thread like this one.

 

[Tank316]

it hasnt been totally pornalized yet, thats a good thing..

 

[craig777]

I don't think Albob could pornalize math.

 

[Tank316]

that man can pornalize anything..

 

[craig777]

Yep.

a 20kg plate is 44lbs.

1kg = 2.2lbs.

 

[Scotty the Body]

Yeah, thats what I thought TCD, THE IRON LIES!!! It says on it in big letters 20KG and 45LB.

Being able to bench that much will also be a factor of body build, desire and genetics. Lots of body builders will never be able to lift that much...

I`m a meatmanager in a grocery store here in Canada and most stores use imperial and metric for their pricing. Back in the early seventies we switched from imperial to the metric system so most of the older people like to use lbs rather than kg.
So 1kg = 2.2046 for our conversion.

 

[Robboe]

oh, ok. Cool.

I suppose that .0046 only really makes a significant difference when the weights get real heavy.
