And how much?
I don't always lift, but when I do it's around 110 lbs.
I'm not scrawny, but I'm not exactly ripped either.
I can leg press 1000, squat 500, bench 200, deadlift tehsuck, clean tehsuck.
Tehsuck just means I haven't tried maxing.
I don't bench, but I feel like your bench weight is a a bit behind your squat weight which is ridiculously high.Quote:

I bench only 300 :/.
I bench a hefty 130 when im pumped. You don't need to tell me im fucking cut.
Yes, bench is my absolute worst lift.Quote:

On regular day I can do 190 but some days when I am feeling really good I can do a maximum of 220. I've been boxing for quiet a few years and that helped a lot .
I can bench 130, which benching your weight really isn't anything I guess but whatever.
I can match Ethan for leg press though I usually stick around 700lbs.
I... don't lift.
I only weigh a bit more than 100 pounds. ;_;

I can lift her with one arm. Makes me feel super strong. (:
And believe me, she eats and doesn\'t puke it up or anything. Bizarre.
It\'s all about dem amply/thick girls. 100 is too skinny for my liking.
I usually thought it was too skinny for my liking but it's her personality that I enjoy the most.Quote:

You could even say it was surprising.Quote:

is she a dwarf?Quote:

Funny when you say that. When I was deployed guys where getting in to the 300's. Annoying as fuck hearing them gloat over me about it.Quote:

Why is it that everyone on this forum is apparently buff as fuck (Soul is the only one that doesnt surprise me).
I'm only benching 150ish and leg pressing 500, and I was pretty sure that was relatively high.
Fudge ya'll nigs
You bench more than me, so there's that. All my muscle is leg strength. 30 reps 200 pounds.
Men :rolleyes:
i can bench 100 the most
I'm actually at 110 now. Moving up faster than I expected. But I suppose I'm still on the lower end of the logarithmic curve.
I bench barely 170. Usually 150. I weigh 135 last time I checked.
Also are we counting max or 8-12 reps?
Max reps are the best factor when you think about it.Quote:

Am I doing it right by doing 3 sets of 15 reps? @.@"
I never tried to find my limit. I used to dumbbell bench 75 lbs on each hand 3 sets of 8 reps. But then I haven't gone to the gym in months.
If you want to get bigger no. Up the weight to whatever you can do sets of 6-10 with.Quote:

That's not too far off, but you'd be better off increasing the weight until you can only do between doing 8 and 12 reps.Quote:

You're pushing the limits on your maximum for the last 1-2 sets when you're attempting to increase weight, meaning you'll likely struggle starting 3, and at latest 5 (otherwise you're not benching something extremely heavy for you). 8-12 is for consistency, warming up, or maintaining current mass.
No, 8-12 is increasing. Once you do 12, you move up weight and go down to eight reps of the higher weight. Then move up reps each training day.Quote:

Do your max, then make sure your spotter has got your back. Then: use every single fiber you have that you can use and push out another fast 5 reps. Those reps will force more of your muscles to be involved and torn to force rebuilding of the muscle in more spots, hence more strength and muscle size.
