I figured you would.

I've gone to 245 but they weren't full reps and I was closely watched by a spotter.

I can get about 6 with 240 (a tad over 225), seated. I normally do triple drops with this - 240 x 6  +  185 x 8  + 135 x12 or so. I do 3 sets, before moving on to the next one.

I have done 225 once. I didnt like it though. That was a tad too heavy, Form was awful

I just really got into those drop sets. The feel like pain from the depths of hell but them shits really work

I always liked drop sets for the psychological benefits. Doing more reps with higher weight makes me feel stronger, even though they're my first real sets.

Agree 100%. I do triple drops on almost all my compounds and compounds are the only things I do, apart from a teeny weeny bit of cable or machine work for the last exercise.

Standing is more difficult unless you are making it a Chris Mason full body exercise.

[dorkeroo]

Nobody can shoulder press 225 natural or juiced. You are all liars.

[the choad]

I can.

even at 145 LBS...

[SWOLETRAIN]

I can do em in the smith machine for 8, i never use free barbell for shoulders. Just doesn't do it for me

yeah, I cheated   a little bouncy.

BTW, I'm talking about presses to the front, not BNP.

[Fury]

Mat DuVall can front shoulder press 675 for reps.

[natural al]

hurt my shoulder wrestling in high school, I can do a ton of weight but I only lower the bar to eye level, if I go any lower my shoulder hurts for days, I've done 245 in the past, on a smith I can do alot more.

LOL!! Ok dorkeroo.....I suppose no one at Women's Fitness can.

I was talking about behind the neck. I don't do barbell presses in the front, just dumbbell.

Youre shittin me right.

[dorkeroo]

Youre shittin me right.

LOL uh..no. I can't believe such a thing is possible. EVERYONE here should post a video as proof (sarcasm is lost online  )

[texasRUSH]

is this a serious question? 225 shoulder press is about as impossible as a 315lb bench for a serious lifter...



impossible to believe that you can't do it!    if you're a big dude and naturally strong you can hit well above that easily if you train for it..i hit 300 before I started my last cycle.
