Haha, I forgot all about "Huge Pecs" and his "Yeah I bench 500+ and weigh 195 what of it?  It's no big deal."

My rotator cuff just told me to tell you guys not to mention the term "bench press" ever again.

Most I've ever seen in a gym was 360lbs - tall dude and large framed.

Coach did 535 at 181 while balanced on a soapy stud.  It was no big deal.

 That is hard to believe. Although 360 is a heavy weight, all in all, it isn't uncommon to see guys left much more than that in a gym. What type of gym (atmosphere) do you lift in?

I've seen one guy in my life regularly bench 495 for 1 or 2 reps.  He was a competitive powerlifter and had some sort of shirt but I don't know anything about that stuff.  Other than that I've rarely seen anyone do more than 315.

 I just find that hard to believe. Maybe the two gyms I have trained in just have some strong mofos there. I have seen guys bench over 500 lbs...absolutely insane to watch. I have seen guys rep 315 daily at my old gym....not as common in the gym I'm at now, but still done by many. I just wonder what most gym goers see as a strong bench.

I certainly don't see 315+ daily but I've never belonged to what one would consider a "hard core" gym (mostly university gyms, family fitness centers, and Gold's-type places).

If he did, that is incredible. I have a friend who weighs 188 and did 405 for 1. Strong little fucker!! He is still young, 21 and already complaining about his shoulders hurting. He will learn sooner or later. Ego lifter :(

I have never actually done 405 x 1 Instead I do sets of 8-10 reps with 320

535 is when I was 23-24. 405x7 is when I was 40. That's when I tore my chest.
