How much can you bench?

im happy to be able to bench my own body weight, see no use to increase. i dont want those ridculous man boobs guys get from over-doing bench. rather work for wider back, shoulders, triceps etc

.

Low body fat= no man boobs the guys who over bench and have man boobs just have chest fat

Lol mate youre just stupid, dyou honestly think a person weighing 100kg should be benching 200kg? That is actually retarded, most people can't do bw.

.

For a 66kg man its doable. Just not happening for 100kg+ for majority of lifters.

K If you say so. Nevermind me saying it's a GOAL, NOT the standard.
And nevermind other people coming in saying they've done it or people they know.
And nevermind that I've managed to nearly reach doing the same.
And nevermind the numerous sources from professionals and experienced lifters saying this.
And nevermind that I got over this thread hours ago.
Just never mind.

You're missing the distinction between 70kg and 100kg man making double bw.

Double bw at 100kg is nonsense, as shown by our national records in the bench press. How many people do you know bench 200kg (drug free).

That's kind of normal. Some teenagers are about 60ish kg.

Floyd Mayweather is the greatest boxer alive and only weighs 150, typically. Real men can bench 1.5x their body weight.

And yes. 72.5 kg (as I weigh)

is in fact

more than 70kg


Lmao Goodbye.

the 93kg bench press record is only 190kg ish lmao in the GBPF. I'd say they don't **** around. for 105kg it's 207.5 which is below 2xbw.

It's a ludicrous standard - 2.5kg above the national record is pretty dam good.

I know guys 60kg, bench 120kg, thats really not that special. It's really good but, to fathom is even in the same ballpark as a 200kg bench press is retarded.

I mean goals are arbitrary, it really doesn't matter. But when you say the goal is to exceed a NATIONAL record in basically every weight division north of 105kg bw, that's really not the goal for most lifters. 210kg, 230kg and 250kg bench presses are ****ing rare for a reason.

What are you talking about?!
I said 1.5x MY bodyweight

is 100kg!! Which I press and other people said they do it in here as well, so why are people still arguing it???

I never said 200kg, ever. Stop misconstruing my posts because you're gonna keep this going and get ppl who are too lazy to read agreeing with your misconceptions.

Ok 3 posts. Done.
