what is the benchpress record?

[healthiswealth]

for a girl?

[disco_stu]

for APA-WPA its 531lbs by an unlimited weight class ''chick'' called Shannon Summers. (very doubtful)

and that's MILES ahead of all the other classes, the best of which is around the 360 mark.

for the IPF it's 121kg (about 265lb) by some woman weighing in at 193.

sorry..found some more links..the new record is 551lbs.

and everyone wants to be part of the 400 club....so 400 lbs is the standard of greatness in women's benching it appears.

not too shabby eh?

hth.
