Every 3-4 months I have a chest workout and just for the hell of it, I grab two plates per side and do 1 big set to failure usually ending up between 30-40 reps, well off to the gym, goal is forty.

My best 225 lift was 46 reps, How many reps have you done 225?


A lying contest, very ingenious? I try it once years back, and it was quite boring, so I fell to sleep at 134 rep, but the guys told me that I continued while sleeping and they wake me up at 1587 rep because my snoring was too loud for them.  What can I say? This is true story, ask anyone..

You're all drugs, wes, all drugs.

But don't think that's a bad thing, nobody gives a shit about how much you bench, really. It's more important that you are a nice guy and friendly to people in life, help them out and don't talk bad about people behind their back.

just the other day i did 30 with two wheels aside. I'm 5'9" 210 lb, i don't know if Thad be considered good or not. ???

Come on man. Your username is "naturalbodybuilder" and you can do 30reps with two plates. Are those kind of naturals so common in your gym that you're not sure if that is impressive or not.

Judging by the incredible amount of reps with 225lbs I have read on this thread I bet we have a lot of 400lbs plus benchers here. Next question to ask is who here can run a sub 4.5 40 and who has to tuck it in their sock when they walk so they don't trip over it?

55 reps touch and go.  Then I get into my Shelby Cobra and drive to my 8000 sq ft. house over looking the Ocean. Since most pretty girls are only a 7 in my eyes I have Ford models come over to hang. 
Your user name is appropriate. Bitter and old. OneTimeHard's lifts are all backed up by vids.

OK fine you guys got me, I was just trying to show off I really can't bench that much, I am lying ::). Check this one out then,...onetimehard1 on youtube, had a few others on youtube including one of me doing 225 for 25 on the incline and 225 for 41 on flat but I have to re post them, give me a few days.

Ya I know it's decline, I know crappy form , ya I know I have a dumb hair cut, but either way this video will show I can move weight, 225 is feather weight.

Ok, done it tonight. 11 reps on my own, 2 spotted. This was after being on the rowing machine for 30min, not that it would've made a ton of difference, but I thought I'd put it out there. I think I'm good for at least a few more reps but I need to feel very strong.

I think you probably lost 3-4 reps, 30 min rowing will definitely bring down some strength
