ITS INTERESTING TO SEE HOW MUCH STRENGTH YOU HAD BEFORE YOU BEGAN TRAINING, BENCH PRESS IS THE MOST COMMON TEST OF STRENGTH. TWAT.

Same. I do remember that I could do the whole stack on those old universal machines, before I really got serious and ventured into the free weights.

/yeah, it was a rude shock   :-\

First time we had to do the bench press test in high school I was a 108-lb freshman and got 95 lbs stuck on my chest.

I was 12, 100 lbs for one extremely ugly rep. When I was sixteen I finally benched 200 but had failed like three times in my garage so I had to roll the bar down my stomach. Awesome

Good post.  I was only benching 105lbs.  when I first started going to the gym.  During that time, I didn't think I was that out of shape.  Then I went to the gym and realized I couldn't even bench my own bodyweight.  That was definitely a wake up call.

I remember being like 15 and putting up 175lbs with alot of my little cousins around. The 45 year old neighbor who lived next door came over and end up getting buried with the weight.

225 for the first time was nice also.
