How much can a real natural bodybuilder bench press?

[Ursus]

Uneven but lighten it 5kg and form is better. I gues it is because it is pretty much his max

[Polish Power]

True because the numbers for the guy I competed against had only a 225 bench but hat a 502 dead and a 435 squat. Again we competed at 162 lbs.

the squat numbers are too low, but i'm not sure how much too low, maybe 10-15%

most people achieve 405 squat 495 deadlift without too much difficulty


the bench is where the challenge lies

because legs have a lot more motor units than arms so the harder you try the more force you can generate

no i'm just randomly saying things i dont know why

[Polish Power]

Well then we get into joint size. Mine are very small, 7inch wrist, 12.5inch knee. So many factors!!

7" wrist is medium

6" small

8" big


just like cocks

[Polish Power]

Haha true. I can't hit bottom but I sure give the sides hell

yeah i'm not sure what small, medium, and big length would be

girth is most important

[nzmusclemonster]

good press....

Fool 

Terrible form. Would have been 3 reds in comp.

[nzmusclemonster]

impressive! natural? this is my dream, bench 3 plates for like 5 reps

how long did you train to achieve this

Yep, lifetime natty - despite what some people on here say.

Been training on and off 10 years. This was when I focussed on improving my bench for about 6 months. Did a lot of heavy shoulder work. Heavy military presses were the key. Plus a lot of heavy tricep work. Benching twice a week. One heavy, one in the 20 - 30 rep range per set.

nothing worse than someone who tries their best to get a response from you
and you just keep ignoring there existence...

I made my best pressing gains doing something similar. For a lot of lifts the typical BB routine, hit the lift once a week isn't best. Try improving pullups just doing them once a week. lol

135
hopes this helps

I'd say spot on with those numbers. I remember competing in 1992 with 7 years training I did a 276.5 bench for a record, 440 dead and  a 405 squat at a bodyweight of 162 and I was a junior

 

[chaos]

Wait....if Penis Polisher did those #'s in '92 w/7 years of training.......and he claims to be 27.........that would mean he did those numbers at birth!!!!!!!!!

Impressive.

I agree he is not muscular at all.

Obviously with his top off he would look trained but ina  baggy t shirt or even a normal t shirt you would never know he lifted

You dont read well. Your combining two different events, the post was in 92 with seven years of training, I was 22. The pic was at 27. I'am now 42, how you managed to screw things up must be an inditement of the American educational system.

Where in this post about that picture did you ever indicate it was not a current pic? In fact you claim to not be an old man and only 27.

Must be some kind of Pollok math going on over there.

Spin spin spin old man....the lies are breaking down Mr "I do rows with the 200#db's".

Not an old man Chaos, 27 here.  And for the shirts and dont like looking like a homo in those tankini's

[Polish Power]

I know we all pick on eachother here but why is it so hard to believe I do 200lb 1 arm rows, 80lb side laterals, kickbacks with 80lbs, 160lb incline db press, 150lb db shoulder press

Sure you do stud, and you have topless supermodels as spotters too right?

Strength is all training, size is all drugs.

That's it fellas, gh15 is right on this one.

What a bunch of crock.

We can all pretend to play it which ever way - that big tendons means small muscles. Big muscles equal small/weak tendons.

Strength = all drugs

BB Size = all drugs

Most of us who have ever been around powerlifting competitions know this from close friends and general observations. Powerlifting falls in the same realm as bodybuilding size -- all drugs.
