Hey you leave my shishia alone!

The bill la. =.="

How much does a condom weigh?

mine just 10kg on each side of oly barbell...

because of my low poundage, i train my chest alone as most of my gym people are way ahead of me.

Oh well, not to be ashamed of doing low weight.

I'm 81kg 180cm though. Very inconsistant to gym and weight training .

My bench always suck.

Warm up 20x20
Warm up 30x15

40x12
45x10
50x8
55x6
60x4
70x2

Still going up! All the best y'all~

I've been playing gym since 2008 up to now..around 3-4 years..

My bench press started from 40kg (include bar) x 10 reps in 2008, BW around 55kg during that time..

Now my current bench press routine is with current BW at 78kg:

1st set 94kg x 8 reps
2nd set 90kg x 8 reps
3rd set 85kg x 8 reps
4th set 60kg rep till failure

I've just started squatting and deadlifting last year so the poundages are not well develop yet..

Current fat is 25% now, so need to be careful to increase weight while minimizing fat intake..

Will post the video of me duin bench soon..Btw, I trained in KBS Putrajaya gym..

Nice to meet you all

8 repetitions of 94kg? Damn you are one strong man.

Now I've done 5 reps of 100kg bench at bodyweight of 78kg..wish I could reach 10 reps then posted it here maybe..hehe..

How bout you?

60kg - 10 repetitions,

62.5 - 6 to 7 repetitions,

65kg - 2 to 3 repetitions

So you have managed to increase up to 100kg. Dang. If you can do 5 reps of 100kg, then I believe you will able to carry 102.5kg for 1 or 2 reps. Actually if you are able to carry 100kg even for 1 repetition, that is considered to be very good already since not many people can carry more than 80kg. Those who managed more than 80kg bench press are not the ones you want to mess with.

The bench press is pretty overrated for bodybuilding purposes imo. What are your goals people? Size? Strength? Do you all do anything else other than just the bench press for chest?

My one rep max is around 108-110kg i suppose..did it last week with a spotter..his hands only touch the bar..you can see my video at bench press thread duin 110kg lift..for me if I increase 2.5kg the rep reduced to 1.. eg bench 100kg for 5 reps, 105kg for 3 reps, and 110 for 1 rep..around that..maybe you're still new to 65kg that's y you only get 2-3 reps..suppose you can get 7-8 reps for 65kg if you can do 60kg for 10 reps..maybe bcoz you didn't do it correctly? Partial bench? You form? All that counts..

60kg is pretty good already..i been at your level before even lower when first started I only managed to do 40kg x 10 reps..after increasing muscle size n strength only i managed to improved..and did a lot of research on bp too..

here in forum got a lot of powerful benchers especially darklight, pedro etc..their numbers are even greater than mine..but they worked hard for it..everybody worked hard for it..so you should do that as well n never give up..

My goal is to increase strength and bench press is one of my best lifts..followed by squat n deadlift since i'm new to it..

Gudluck!

Added on November 1, 2012, 10:28 amBro, maybe its been overrated sometimes..but its good for those whose looking into some motivations for building strength so that somebody else can give advise to try out squats n deadlifts after they improve their benches..same goes for me..

My 2 cents

Not sure if it's my incorrect form or something else that I can't perform 7 to 8 repetitions for 65kg but I suppose it's down to my strength. I don't do partial bench press ie. bar not lowered down all the way to the chest etc. All are good clean repetitions, good form with the 10 repetitions of 60kg.

I understand bench press is not the only thing that people do when they are into body building, but one has to understand not everyone are into bodybuilding when they go to the gym. Some just go to the gym to keep fit, to maintain the body's physique and to build strength along the way, not necessarily to build muscles or get a bigger body etc. I view bench press as an indication of a person's strength, generally. The more one is able to bench press, the stronger he is. Of course, strength can be gauged in many areas, but bench press is a good indication of one's strength in my book.

Not too sure about the over-rated comment about bench press but if it's solely bodybuilding then it may well be over-rated since there are many other forms of exercise other than bench press for body building - the back, biceps, triceps, calf, thigh etc.

Wah.... I asked a simple question in a single sentence and I get such lengthy roundabout explanations. Lol. Why don't you just say..... I like to bench? >< Sheesh...

Ok. I like to bench. full stop. lol

mine is 40 kg of plates .. bar not sure ... smaller bars .. 5 reps
