Not 450 though, huge difference.
-
i never claimed 450 though, i said 400+ ::) I think you are on record as stating 225 X 28= 350 bench max ;D
it aint that serious Sars

225 x 28 ~ 415 max

No matter how u slice it, Tebow is a strong dude plain and simple.

hell yes

What's a Sars? Whatever dude, I'm done arguing with you. Good luck getting back TO BENCHING 500 and good luck in your future cage fighting endeavors. I'm off to watch football before the gym. I'm doing dropsets today with yellow and pink dumbells flyes and then some 135 pound benches for sets of 3 today,my heavy day! HAHAHA

Not a gimmick account bro. I'm not Squad or Sarcasm or whoever you think I am, my counterpart,thewickedtruth can vouch for that. And I agree with you on your point 225 for 28 CLEAN REPS would easily be a 400 bench, but 225 for 28 University of Florida Gators Sloppy Reps would be a 350 or 375 at best bench. I'm an SEC fan, so I'm not picking on them either. You got to be these statements into context. Lift weights with a football player and you will see what I mean.

Just out of curiosity,
how much do you think Reggie Bush could bench??
At the NFL combines, he did 225 x 24 times!!! At a bodyweight of 203!! ;)

wow I thought squad and sirtraps were buddies.

Um that doesnt mean anything. I can bench 225 for 30+, 315 for 10, and wouldnt even try 405 cause no f'n way would I get it

exactly, people greatly exaggerate their max bench number off of their 225 for reps.

Yup. I tried 365 about a month ago and got 3 ASSISTED reps, and I know if I was watching someone else do what I did, I would've been laughing at him.
And while we're on the subject, 315 behind the neck even on the smith machine... no f'n way, and neither can whoever is claiming to.

hahahaa, here's the guy who claimed that.

The "Jeenius", another shitty gimmick. SF, why do all these posters who support your claims have less than 100 posts ? ;D
225 for 30 huh ? ::)
-
it's almost impossible to guess based off of a rep-out that's above 10 since endurance doesn't mean much to strength the higher the reps get.
i hit around 20-21 reps with 225 after my heavy sets on a good day (never tried it fresh), max is around 340 with a pause. someone else might only hit 15 with 225 but get 365 for a single, another guy might be able to grind out reps all day but not have much by way of heavy single strength.

Gee, your name is SirTraps, which would infer that you have large muscles, and yet 225 for 30 is "out of your league"? You must fall short of your name by miles.
Just because you cant do it....
And I'm not a gimmick, and fwiw, when I was 15 I was training at Westside barbell :-X

what do expect from a "guy" who believes that 200 pound at 6'3" college kids bench press 455 and hang clean 520. ::)
-
Agreed, they weigh 300+.
Its the same as a 200lb man benching 135.
If you weigh 200lbs and cant bench 135x30, go get a new hobby.
Not you "SirTraps", we all know you weigh well under 200lbs :-\
-
Check our ip's "big guy".
for what it's worth, you ARE using distinctly squad-type (or at least "getbiggian") phrases like putting "big guy" in quotes or talking about how he's deep in someone's head.
-
calm down shitty gimmick, it aint that serious.
Chubbyfather claims he can bench more than Tim Tebow hahahaha ;D
-

That is true. But it is also true that Traps is saying everyone who agrees w/ squad is a gimmick, which I'm not. I'm sure there are points that I disagree w/ him on, this just isnt one of them.
If you check our IP's you will see we are not the same, its not that complicated.
Doesnt really matter now, traps went running away with his vagina intact.
-
Fatty resorting to two shitty gimmicks in the same thread = epic meltdown ;D
-
Just cause the guy is a decent QB, doesnt mean shit about benvhing.
Kevin Durant is scoring 20+ as an NBA rookie and couldnt bench 185 pre-draft.
One has nothing to do with the other.
-
You do realize you look like a lil bitch saying 225 for 30 is OMG right?
-
whatever you say Gimmick :D
-
Why are you the only person who is blown away by 225 x 30?
You must be brutally small.

He is my man, he claims a 500 bench, yet shrugs 235, which I don't get. I guess my little gimmick brain cannot process all that information. If you see him in his tapout shirt, watchout, you've been warned!

Dude, Squad is NOT me. Do an IP search and you will see,or PM wickedtruth, and he will tell you we are not the same person. If you would just admit Tebow cannot do 450, it will all be over. Admit that his 1RM is based on his 225 record not an actual maxout attempt. And if that was a joke about the 500, where are the smiley faces and winked eyes, or was it just sars as you say?

Fatman hiding behind two gimmicks hahahaha pathetic ;D
Sorry Adipose Finch, i dont see you benching as much as Tim Tebow :D

Never claimed I could do 450, like Tebow ::). And once again,I'm not Squad. Research my threads and you will see. Just because some people don't have a huge post count doesn't make them gimmicks. I actually get out of the house, why today I even went to the gym and lifted weights. I'll go ahead and post your response for you:
Okay, two shitty gimmicks, give it up fat man. Hahahaha, pathetic.
At least develop some originality or something...............

I admire your Honesty, Jeenius. I saw a dude cranking 315lbs for 17 reps, and I assume he could do 405lbs for a good 10reps. Boy, was I wrong. He managed 3 fcking reps, with the 3rd one assisted half the way up.
That changed my assumption about this high reps means heavier weights stuff many believe in.

Amen to that. Anyone who is good enough to play for the gators is pretty fucking impressive in my book.

Well apparently claiming a bench over 200 around here is outlandish! My lifting partner is a formal div 1 lineman, 6'5 340ish, he can bench 405 fo 5, but cant get 225 for more than 16. Obviously you know, it has more to do with condioning, muscle fibers, arm length etc. All these idiots know is "strong".

Tips for Maximizing Your 225lb Bench For Reps Combine Test
by Gregg Damminga, 805 squat, 515 bench, 685 deadlift at 275lbs age 44
Throughout my football career, I have trained for, participated in, and was the coach for many "bench for reps" tests. Coaches and scouts believe it has some relevance to your performance on the field. Personally I doubt there is a one to one correlation, but surely in general, the stronger people have a higher probability for success than the weaker. There has to be some measure of strength to compare athletes, this is about as universal as it can be done. The generally accepted "best" way to perform the test, along with some of my own personal observations are as follows:
* Train for the test. You wouldn't run 400's for the 40 test, so don't spend all your time trying to max out your 1 rep bench weight, or spend all your training time on the incline
* practice a good bench "set-up". Find a competitive powerlifter to show you how to tuck your feet, plant your butt, arch your back, squeeze your shoulder blades, and lift your feet and drive your feet as you perform the lift. I have seen some of of the strongest people perform this test horribly because they just don't know the proper form. It can mean 4-10 reps difference depending on your strength level. An excellent DVD can be obtained through http://www.metalmilitia.net/, these guys are the KINGS of powerlifting benching.
* Many colleges emphasize the incline press, or incline HammerStrength machines. That's great, but you still need to train flat bench to train for this test.
* Always end your bench workout, whether 5x5, 8/6/4/2, etc. with a flat bench "rep out" set with the 225. Each workout strive to do 1 more than the last time using the techniques outlined in this article. When actually performing the test:
* Watch others do the test, see if they are making you lockout each rep (sometimes they let you not quite have to lockout) and how much they are letting people bounce off the
Chest
bench press combine 225 test for reps
* Warm up to a weight OVER 225, i.e. 135x8, 185x4, 225x3, 275x2, (stop here if you your bench max is < 325) 315x2 (stop here if you bench max is >350). If your bench max is < 300, you are either a kicker, punter or QB, and they really don't care what you bench, or you probably shouldn't be trying out in the first place. Really. Warming up like this engages some Central Nervous System compensation effect that the 225 weight will feel and perform lighter (IT WORKS)
* Wait at least 10 minutes but no more than 15 minutes before actually performing the test
* Do not let them "force" you to alter your training grip, sometimes the scout will tell everyone to use the same "one thumb extended from the start of the inner knurling", this is nonsensical, just ignore it, sit down and start using your normal grip before they notice
* Get your proper setup (see above)
* Make sure you get a lift off, try to use the same person who hopefully lifted off for you during warmups. Don't waist 1 rep of energy unracking the weight.
* Right before liftoff, breath in/out deeply several times very fast, this will somewhat saturate you lungs with oxygen and allow you to hold your breath longer
* Take the biggest breath possible, unrack the weight, and start repping out AS FAST AS POSSIBLE, take advantage of as much bounce and partial lockout as will be allowed
* Keep going as fast and as long as possible until you have to take another breath, should be about 50-65% of the way to you maximum count i.e. about 10-14 if you can do 20
bench press combine test* When you need to take a breath, stop just long enough to take exhale and take another huge breath, minimize the "rest" at the top extension. Then rip out a bunch more, take another breath, again, etc. Of course each time you will get a few less between breaths as fatigue sets in.
==> The key is to have the weight extended at the top the SHORTEST TIME POSSIBLE. You are not really "resting" much at the top, but squeezing isometrically the triceps. This quickly fatigues the triceps and limits the reps. People who think they are "resting" at the top will always do less
This set of tips and advice should get you 2-4 more reps if you would normally do about 20. A general rule of thumb is:
raw 1 rep max 225lb reps
315 8-14
365 18-22
405 25-30
455 32-38
495 40-45
There are several DVDs you can buy that can help you with the combine tests if you don't have access to a personal trainer knowledgeable about football. A good example is the one by Joe Defranco, and can be found here: http://www.defrancostraining.com .
Gook Luck and Lift Strong! ;D

It seems to me that this debate is lagrely dependent on the the individual.
We know that some people have a greater propensity of slow-twitch vs. fast-twtich muscle fibers. Sprinters vs marathoners for an extreme example.
Wouldn't it stand to reason that a person MAY have such an imbalance exposed on an ecercise such as this. someone that could bench a lot of weight fr a 1RM, but be piss-poor once he goes over 15 reps or so?
I don't know, just thinking out loud. My old training partner could out bench me for a 1RM by 30 or 40 lbs, but I was always able to out-rep him.
Again, I don't know, just throwing it out there!
-
So as summarized in the article, a 235 pounder like Tim Tebow who does 225 for 28 reps could very easily bench 405.
As opposed to a total lardass keyboard warrior who wont post a video to back up his claims. ;D
-
..... he can bench 405 fo 5, but cant get 225 for more than 16.....
one of those lifts is complete bs

No its called poor endurance and fast twitch muscle fibers.
