12-14 (260-4lbs) on a barbell.

315 I get about 4-5 reps but that was after flat barbell.

#335 is my 1 rep. I could get 12-15 at 225, which is usually right around bodyweight, +/- 5 lbs. After about 10 the reps get slow and ugly though.
Title: Re: how many reps can you incline bench your bodyweight
Post by: ritch on July 24, 2012, 03:59:26 PM
never tried but 225 would not be very hard to get 12-15, maybe even 20 if I did them fast.

170 pounds for 15 reps is pretty good especially if its your bodyweight on incline

Post by: flipper5470 on July 24, 2012, 07:19:13 PM
Right now...I don't know if I could rep once at 315.  I did 4 when I getting back into it from a torn bicep...frankly, I'm afraid to press heavy since I snapped my humerus in late 2010.  There's a big ass metal plate in there and I can just see it snapping or something.

At peak in 2000, I was flat benching my old 300lb weight set for three sets of 10.

I maintain a squat/bench ratio greater than one by being a horrible bencher.

You should do squats with a 110# bag of concrete on each shoulder, excellent for Falcon mass and balance.

Its not that good really.  Thats about equivalent to me doing 225 for 6-8 at 170 which I can easily do, so Power to weight, I am much stronger now.

225 is my BW

don't know exactly, i can do it a lot...that's my first set weight, pretty much a warmup/set-up set, for heavier weight.

i never push max effort on my first set, or my second....third set is the money set. one and two are just to get to three.

 pushing super - hard on the first two is like premature ejaculation, wasted effort

Most pros seem to "touch" (slam) the chest to get a rebound effect then have about a 5" range of motion, claiming this "isolates the pectorals" (oh brother).

If someone can do say 12 reps it would not be that tough to get it to 20 as its more conditioning than strength in my experience.
