Lot of liars in here, being able to bench 225 is a pretty decent level of fitness, I would believe around 40% of posters could maybe hit that but not 90% of you, I maxed out at 200 2 reps,
5'10 165

 

[fortheblessings]

one struggle rep maybe 5'10 170lbs

I normally do 3 sets of 8 reps of 225-235lbs so I can probably do about 12-15 reps of 225lbs when I’m fresh and warmed up.

I’m 6’1 200lbs

Now probably about 15 times but I haven't tried to max or lift more than 10 in a rep in a long time. Been scared to try and max out since fukking my shoulder up about 7-8 years ago. We was drinking and decided to see who could lift the most. Everybody else topped out at like 250. I did 295 pretty easily. Jumped to 315 and as I went to push it up just heard this loud as crack in my shoulder with a huge pain run through it. Now I stick to doing around three sets of 10 reps at 215.

I've never tried tho.. That's just an assumption

If you cant get at least 15 to 20 reps i would take your girls from you

Fukkin weaklings

I do 3 sets of 20 in the gym at around 103kg so I think I could do at least 25ish in a failure.

Always been pretty solid at bench press on account of being 5"9 and having short arms for my height.

I'm like the exact opposite. 6'1" with extra long skinny arms....always felt like I was throwing that weight a good three feet above my chest when I benched the damn thing.

We had this little DB on our team, only 5'9" 165lbs but he could bench 335lbs....swear his arms hardly had to move in comparison.

Haven’t touched 225 in a while, but last time I did, I hit it about 4 times. This was when I was doing 10 reps of 185 with a spotter. Now I can do about 12 reps of 185 with no spot.

 

[Rigamortus]

I'm up to 7 right now.

[TheGregReaper]

I usually do 3 sets of 12.

The most I've ever done at once is 21....but that was a while ago.

6'1 228lbs

shyt when I was at my athletic high point. Playing Football in high school. Lifting 3 days a week for 2 hours. Maxed out at 190.

My arms have never been strong though . i can run all day but can't do 10 pushups

I don't see how any grown man cannot do at least 10 push ups.
