225 for reps should be attainable by any adult with a few years lifting experience.

This means that you're not considered a serious poster if you're not "repping" the 225 with the utmost ease.

That's a thought in itself. I really haven't done barbell bps - seriously - in a long, long time. I certainly can rep that out handily enough close-gripped, but my bp form would probably lapse into some neck/gironda press hybrid.  :-\
