320 for bench does suck compared to 615 for deadlift. ;)

That's crazy. I deadlift about the same as what I bench. However, my deadlifts are shooting up FAST because I just started doing them.
 
Only 615...Where you feeling sick that day MonStar? :laugh: :evil:

LOL. :D

I would like to eventually hit 7 plates per side, which is 675. That would definitely be a huge accomplishment.

Hi guys, i'm new to this board. I just wanted to pipe in on this subject, because i read a few "who uses 1RPM's in their training, so who cares" comments and i just wanted to add this. Speak for yourself. I am a competitive powerlifter, specializing in the bench. I don't use a 1RPM during every work out of course, but i do so probably a lot more than someone who does not do what i do. Anyways, I've been reading a lot of the posts here over the last few weeks, and Mudge, by the way bro.... I don't know ya, but i've got a lot a respect for your knowledge bro. and it's nice to see someone who know's what he's talking about who's willing to share it with others.
my gym 1RPM by the way is 545, and i've paused with 482 in competition in early December....gonna smoke it at the states here in cali next month tho!!
Peace All, VG.

Nice bench press, what Fed and what equipment you use?

Yeah I was just kiddin with ya MonStar... I haven't even hit 300 yet on the bench myself... I hit 290 a couple months ago, but lately I am only hitting like 250-270 max. I don't know why, I am thinking maybe the weather.. I wonder if weather has anything to do with lifting potential... Colder vs. Warmer... That is after you warm up first?

I do have bad wrists which doesn't help.. Today my right wrist tendon started hurting after pressing 250 4 times. I then stopped and deverted over to fly's, pec dec and some dips. It was funny that my wrist didn't hurt with those. I guess I just need to focus on some more serious wrist exercises...been missing them in the last couple of weeks.

Fortified, I compete mostly with the APF. I'm doing their California State Meet in Feb and I'll be doing the AAPF national meet in March in Vegas. We're using some pretty basic equipment. I've got a team that trains out of my home gym. I utilize my cage a lot. Some boards, and a lot of bands and chains. And we do a lot of stability work with the resistaball. December was my first meet back after a bicep tendon ruture that put me out for a year and a half. Which, by the way, happened outside of the weight room. I snapped it carrying a pool table when a couple of other people lost their end. lol. Do you attend any of the PL meets?
 
All my injuries have occured when not training as well.

When it comes time to compete i'll be in the IPA/APF/WABDL. Where im located at and with my studies i dont have much time to go traveling. I plan on hosting several meets later this year.

Im wanting to make a trip up to the East cost to train with Mike Miller, Bill Crawford, and the Azz family and possibly do a meet that way. (Pa/NY area)

I just got a Karin DD with Canvas inserts in just a few days ago and had 315 6'' from lockout haha.. i know im good for 450 and 500 (later) in the shirt, but really i wanna get the 700DL moving right now.

Damn man, nice work! I was kinda happy to be back up to 500 and I got 25 lbs on you, although it isnt all muscle :rolleyes: Do you do any variations for deads? My long term goal is to get over 800 on deads and bench the 515 I deadlift or at least 495.

Sweet. Yeah, me and my guys are actually planning to do some traveling this year. Making a list, kinda as we go along. Sacramento in Feb, Vegas in March, Fresno in April, Nebraska in May, the WPC worlds in Fresno in Oct. Not every member of the team will compete in every meet of course, but i'll be there as team captain at each one. so i'll be building up my miles. The east coast is getting pretty far away tho, but if you ever get one of your meets set up, let me know. do you plan to be the meet director? i would like to do that somewhere down the road as well. we're opening our own gym later this year and will start off with small, non sanctioned comps, and see if we can go from there. good luck with yours.:thumb:
 
I'll probably end up being the meet director as well. There is a big problem with Ark. where I live. There hasnt been any other meet other then an AAU meet in this state in over 5years.


Kc
 
wow. yeah, that's a bit of a lull. do you think it's from a lack of serious lifters? or is it just getting a fed to sanction?
 
Lack of lifters. Im pretty sure of it, which is sad. They host some High School meets, but they are for qualifing for AAU.

Btw.. Check your PM's VG.

Alright I've got a new max for ya. Weighing in at 155lbs today the red dragon benched 218. I really think I could have gotten 220 but before 218 I did 200 and 215. Oh yeah someone give me a hug. Come on Rissole lets have a makeup hug. Come on give the dragon a hug!

im 140 and can do like 210 :p ....atleast i think i can...hehe yay...ive increased since two weeks ago
 
man, i suck at everything :P...ive been working out since age 14 (im 16 now) and i suck still
My 1rm on bench is like 180...but i weigh bout 200...im 6'1'' and not that fat but lanky. I think i could be doing 200 by now on bench, but i injured my right rotator cuff a year ago, trying to max too often.
I have some strong friends tho. One guy can do 275 @155 body weight, and can do about 450 dead, 350 squat. he is the best for his weight that i know. My other friend could do 500 squat at age 14 body weight-195
I hope to be there one day, im trying real hard. But i cant seem to lose my fat. I started eating less more often, with no soda and no foods that are just fat. I get a lot of protein too. i lift and run as well, but i just cant seem to lose any weight...

Here is a record from the adfpa (14-15 yo).
http://www.adfpa.com/records/national/men-teen.htm

165 lb class - Bench - 264.5

Sounds like your friend should compete and get his name in the record book. And while he's at it, he should go for the DL record too. It's 479.5. Only 30 lbs to go.

Oh yeah, in case you haven't guessed, I don't believe any of those numbers you posted.
 
haha, why would i lie? There are lots of guys out there that are very strong and can do a lot more than you could think possible, but a lot of people have other goals.

We had a kid last year who could squat 700+. He is trying for texas state record.

btw i said about...i may have been off on the deads and squats but i was definetly right about his bench i spot him.

But im not gonna argue with you. You can believe what you want, its not like im advertising something i was just saying. geez
 
oh and btw in an issue of Muscle & fitness i read, it was doing one of those Specials for power.

Talked about one guy who squatted 750 at bodyweight of 165. all natural so there

and like i said taht was in the official magazine Muscle&fitness. so go argue with them
 
besides he is the guy i mentioned was 17. Why is it impossible for him to be taht strong, when all those other kids are?

And he does get the most outstanding bench award or whatever at his P/L meets. recently he hurt his back and cant squat like he used to. but he still deads 400+
 
None of the numbers CAT posted at unbelievable.

I know a teen (16) who benches 315 at 148.

I also know 2 teens who bench in the 350-400 range as a teen (14-16)

I also know a 16 yr old who put 500 up on the bench press, along with another one who put up 500 at 18.

Btw.. All are COMPETING powerlifters and natural.

I have pics/vids and much more to prove their lifting as well.

Kc
 
thank you! dang, its annoying when you say something and people automatically call you a liar

fortified, are those pics and vids on ur website?
 
Just a point here ... I'm not saying it's true or not true. But a child 14-16 lifting 500 pounds is few and far between. While I don't think it is recommended for individuals that young to take steroids, I would believe that most lifting 500 lbs within that age bracket, or most any age bracket for that matter are or have been on steroids at one point. Naturally most anyone would deny that. And anyone trying to boast about their accomplishments wouldn't lead on that they were on or have been on steroids.. Heck! That would spoil their story :)

It's funny it's like prison. You ask those guys whether they are guilty or innocent... 100 percent of them say they are all innocent :lol: It's funny how we toss so many innocent people in jail each year. :)

Now if indeed they are natural -- my hat goes off to each and every one of them.. 500 lbs is some heavy ass weight. Especially for a 14-16 year old.
 
That is a strong bet Fortified :D.
 
maxed today...only got 185.... very sad
i know i do BB workouts for size, so i dont get much str work but still....until i can do my own body weight on bench (200)
im going to do powerlifting workouts
 
the most i ever put up was 245 lbs. while in utah of all places, i think it is the rarified air, but that isn't too bad since i probably weighed in around 150 lbs,, and not to make any excuses but bench isn't my best exercise for some reason, i can almost incline the same that i can bench and i decline way more then i bench
