				Are you for real man? 
 
 This would make you one of the top 10 strongest guys on getbig... INCLUDING pros.
 
 I call shenanigans!
 
 last time i was in a gym with a bench press i was able to hit 315 for 10..  best i ever did was 315 for 13..  highest was 435 for a single..  these days my chest workout is lots of volume and squeezing on cable crossovers, pec dec, and slight incline dumbell press with palms facing eachother..  
 
  no.. I don't train to failure so when I say I did 315 for 13 you should keep that in mind.. Had more reps left in the tank

 Maybe he bench presses with his forehead
- 
				Doesn't matter if he can lift that much, he has a shit chest.

				The Orcs are a physically strong race.

 Lol, I smell a 24 hour 6 inch rep range on this one
- 
				Maybe his spotter is badass at rows??
			
- 
				Doing only the negative portion of reps don't count Tbombz
			
- 
				He's off the gas and using Androgel because his hormones are fucked at 21. He'd be lucky to get 225 for a few now. 
			
- 
				tbombz is able to harness spiritual forces you nincompoops know nothing about - lifting 435 is nothing when spiritual forces are assisting you through universal language/with vibrators

 :D lol

 tbumbz is 21?  I thought he was early 30s.
- 
				Everyone on getbig either benches 315 for 10 or 225 for 40.

				 back in 2001 I did 315 for 16

 Post a video then.
 
 You can obviously work a camera. You take bathroom pictures all the time. So just flip the switch to a video and get under the bench and show me what's what.

				Gym I'm at now only has a smith and I haven't done bench for 3 months because of it

				Give me a number you think would be equivelant on the smith then

 you don't have access to a bench and a bar? where are you? bangladesh?
- 
				Monterey snap fitness lol
			
- 
				Smith machine bars weigh around 15lbs or the equivalent of because of the offset right?
			
- 
				  Nah   I was on heavy PED Cycle 
			
- 
				Yes but the fixed plain reduces the amount of strength needed so effectively takes off pounds
			
- 
				Christ bombz. Find a fucking bench and show us. 
 
 Just walk into any damn gym and go to the bench and put 3 plates on each side and lift that shit.
 
 Hell. Forget 13. A set of 10 and you are good.
- 
				Bitch I'm trying to work with your ass and your making it difficult as hell. My gym doesn't have a bench. Think of what you'd consider comparable for a smith bench and ill do that
			
- 
				I get the feeling you can prove yourself but you have to admit, claiming that you're unable to get on a bench is ah, fuel to the fire, here.
			
- 
				Yeah well my gym doesn't have one so what can I do. I said if do a comparable weight on the smith.  What would it be. 345?
			
- 
				why don't you buy a day pass for a different gym?  do you live in a city?  there must be a dozen nearby...
			
- 
				fuck off with that shut I'm a poor student I can barely afford food. Lol. Ill do it on the smith if I remember to. So if it means that much to you remind my about it on Monday viz I do chest Tuesday.

 I have no idea - few people will because few people will switch between them.  What do you weigh, doing this?

 fuck off with that, i have $55 in my bank account and even i would do it ::)
- 
				Welli only have 25 so I'm poorer than you haha.     I weigh around 235
			
- 
				Aye, well, I don't need to see any proof then, sounds about right to me at that weight.

 Lol

				What the fuck kind of gym doesn't have a bench but has a smith?
			
- 
				I'm going to conditionally believe Taylor on this, with a few conditions -
 
 #315 x 10 - 12 will usually equal out to around #405 for a single, which isn't too far off his claimed max.
 
 The guy's #235 and been hardcore on for a few years now.
 
 I'd also bet that the reps are 3/4ers or similar, and the #400 + is gym lift good, but not powerlifting meet good, so it could be possible.
 
 ---------------------------------
 
 I'm not sure about the Smith to free bar conversion, but I figure #365 should make it comparable. I'd also let it go if all the reps were at atleast 80% Range of Motion.

 Shit man. I don't know. I don't use a smith.
 
 Just let us know when you get around to it.

 Far, far too many!
- 
				Tbombz is backtracking.
 
 You simply cannot compare a smith to barbell bench. Too many variable and each smith is different,
 
 Like comparing a squat to a leg press.
- 
				I posted videos of these lifts a while back .. maybe tbombz should do the same ..
			
- 
				I think Sev post 405x3 very clean reps.

 Yup Sev has some good solid videos of his strength. Strong guy.
- 
				well-known fact that romanian plates and gravity are both sub-standard.
			
- 
				I did 315 for ten when I was in college at 22. I was taking finaplex and test, but I could pause press 410 for one. Sorry, just wanted to relive glory days and brag a bit.  ;D

 I agree. Less stabilizers in use and a slew of other stuff.
 
 Until he's under a bench and he does it, I consider his claim vapor.
- 
				lol what kind of shithole "gym" doesn't have the entirety of these items:
 
 - a bench
 - a barbell
 - six plates
 
 ???
- 
				I have never been into a gym that didn't have at least one bench.

 Are you suggesting tbombz's 'gym' may be in the basement of a 65-year-old single man?
- 
				No chance Tbumz is getting 315 for 1 let alone 13. Delusional as ever.

 Possibly, but even a 65 year old man would need a bench to romance the bombz. ;D
- 
				I don't think he looks weak at all but 315x13 is a tremendous feat of strength.

 yeah,,,and loaded up on stuff and pushing that kinda weight should have a good chest to show in terms of size/thickness .
