Why You Can't Bench Press 225 for Reps
video description
Get under whatever weight you hate doing for 5 reps. Do 3 sets of this; even if set 2 is only 3 reps, and set 3 is only 1 rep. Continue this until you can hit 8 reps x3 sets, and then move up 20 pounds in bench weight. Repeat this process, and you will gain power; which will, in turn, increase your bench. I used this method up to a 360 1 rep max, but ran into rotator cuff issues at 265 x8, so make sure to train those while heavy lifting on the bench.

I was stuck on a 300lb bench press for years until i started squating and deadlifting and using the bench press calculator. That allowed me to get massive gains. I was able to do 255 16 times and 225 18 times. Prior to that 255 i could only do like 6 times and 225 like 11 times.

I'm at a plateau right now at 265. Im only 15 and I bought into that -if you dont toss 405 like nothing, your weak- i used it as motivation to get better. I'm hoping for 405 before I graduate high school. Its gonna be extremely hard but I'm gonna work hard to get there.

I'm trying to hit a 315 benchpress 405 squat and 455 deadlift by the end of this school year. Hopefully at 198 bodyweight.

It depends on your genetic makeup i maxed out at 175 2 months ago for bench now im hitting 225 for 7 reps. Some people can do much kore in a year and some much less. All in Ll just not a good claim to make

Widespread steroids use have skewed people's perception of what to expect in the gym. People who bench 315 after 1 year of going to the gym are almost always taking something.

If your gym has the laying bench press machine without the bar you can actually get stronger with that a lot safer. It-s like a hybrid between the barbell and dumbbells

I been training for more than 20 years. Working out is only 60%. Your diet & rest the biggest contributor to strength gains.
