    Awwww, how cute! Mcfreako's mad because he can't join in on our fun because he's a frauding ******* who most likely doesn't even lift.



    For the unaware: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...post1325580741

    An entire decade on a bodybuilding website with over 30,000 posts - and not a single shred of concrete evidence that he actually lifts.... how pathetic.
    Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

    lol da fuk, why didn't they just use 3 red plates instead of the smaller change ones?

    One of the comments on youtube said some chit about how he was fraudin' in the way he was going to use the bar when he realized that I got the rep under control and didn't need any help. watch the vid a couple of times, was pretending to use the bar to prevent himself look like a fool or what?

    Nice brah, a loss of 2 reps on that for a 24lb weight cut aint too shabby. How long did you cut for? did you use IIFYM/myfitnesspal or do a meal plan bro diet type of deal?

    Back in 2013 I hit 355 in competition at 216lbs, then cut down 14lbs in 14 weeks (IIFYM/MFP) and actually hit 365. Sheiko bench programming FTW.

    fuk outta here *******, this thread is for people who ACTUALLY lift and ACTUALLY have PROOF of it. Not people who post imaginary numbers and weights in their journals LOL.

    Again, IF you post a video of a bench/squat/DL that falls in line with the numbers from your workout journal with verification that it's you (e.g. sign with your name written on it), I'll stop negging you and will start repping you.

    If not, don't post in here again u frauding kunt.

    Inb4 you PM some miscer and offer to rep him for life if he does it for you LOL.

    Never tried 335, since I don't have a lifting partner anymore to spot me. But here's 275x10 with mediocre form since that's a lot of weight for me. I figure I had a few more reps left in me there, but I'm not going to push my luck without a someone to save my ass when I get myself in trouble.



    This was at 165 lbs bodyweight.


    EDIT: Meant to say I'd never tried 315, since that was the OP's benchmark. The 10 reps at 275 makes me think I might be able to do it, but I'd really want a spotter to try it.

    Love this thread. I have a 335x1 video some where but can't find it so this'll have to do.

    315 singles with 60 second breaks. 186body weight at the time. I'm up to 198-200 right now.



    Close grip 235 x 12+1

    My best bench presses, in descending order of bodyweight:

    335 x 3 @ 200lbs



    350 x 1 @ 200lbs - this was my opener and I suffered a b-grade tear on my pec. Scratched my next two attempts and immediately began to ice it. Sucks because I was peaked to hit about 380 that day Proceeded to take the majority of the next year off training and gained about 50 lbs



    365 x 1 @ 202lbs (this was done before the above benches)



    After getting back into training right around the new year after taking most of 2014 off:

    355 x 1 @ 245lbs - FEET UP



    350 x 1 @ 253lbs - FEET UP, CLOSE GRIP



    380 x 1 @ 257lbs



    Hopin to hit at least 405 by the end of January which will likely be the next time I compete.


    Again, Will rep ANYONE who posts a video of them benching 315 or more, regardless of bodyweight, as long as there's no ridiculous bounce. Or any bench that I think is impressive at my discretion

    OP please embed, I weigh 235 lbs benched 427 Lbs RAW with long pause, here:

    Every 45 lbs plate in my gym is actually weighed in at 46.5 Lbs, thus the odd number...

    Embedding for you brah:



    ^Fuark... Holy chit.

    Back in 2013 I hit 355 in competition at 216lbs, then cut down 14lbs in 14 weeks (IIFYM/MFP) and actually hit 365. Sheiko bench programming FTW.
    I actually bulked up to 245, but never had time to film any of my additional PR's. But yeah, I was doing IIFYM and using MFP. Worked really well for me. After my clash with keto 2 years ago, I decided I would never be following protocols again and just said I'd eat according to what was available.

    365 @ 215 is solid as fuark, mane. Mirin. Sheiko is solid.

    I usually keep my routines and my diet pretty simple, though. Goal is always to pick up as much as I can as many times as I can, and to do it all again but heavier next week. During a cut, I try my best to train at the same weights I was using.

    Didn't see your earlier comment, but yeah, I have a weird set-up. Mainly because I have trouble keeping myself straight when setting up normally, so this helps me not end up benching diagonally.

    Somebody recommended it to me a while back, and it just kind of stuck!

    Hell ya man, I was hoping you might drop by in here....

    Been mirin since like 2010-2011 when I used to read AirforceV's workout log and you would post videos in there occasionally IIRC. Or maybe I just checked out your log because you posted in his, don't remember...

    Strong AF, reps on R/C.

    [youtube]Ezyo9ZLz3Lw[youtube]

    This was at 165 lbs bodyweight.

    EDIT: Meant to say I'd never tried 315, since that was the OP's benchmark. The 10 reps at 275 makes me think I might be able to do it, but I'd really want a spotter to try it.
    You definitely got some strength there, but 3 things:

    1) not mirin lifting gloves
    2) stop moving your feet around when you bench, it causes you to lose tightness and power
    3) not a single rep touched your chest... it's gotta touch your phucking chest for it to count mayne.

    Sorry, no reps for you

    GJDM. Your ass is definitely coming up quite a bit, but then again you're on a commercial gym bench... if you were on a competition bench like a forza I wonder if that would solve it. Still gonna rep on r/c, GJDM.

    this post should put it in perspective when so many bros claim massive lifts.
    I could bench 135lbs when i weighed 135lbs on my 1st time trying to bench press.

    Although my mate who is 6'6" could only bench 45lbs @ 200lbs on his 1st try

    Brah, don't kick yourself. I always used to watch people hit 315 and thought it would be impossible for me to hit it. I went from benching 135 every time, to where I am now. Literally couldn't even bench the bar when I first started working out. It's all about how bad you want it, and how well you support your performance with a caloric surplus/progressuve overload.

    Also I tossed aesthetics aside during my bulk and just let the bulk take over. Was worth it in the end, because now that I've cut down, I'm good again.

    You can do it mane

    Can't tell if single ply or multi ply...

    As for training for a strong bench - I think training for a raw bench and training for a shirted bench are two completely different animals. In my opinion if you want a strong raw bench the key is to simply bench more - not try and target one of the muscles group involved (triceps, front delts, chest, etc) - and say that that one specific muscle group is the "key."

    Just my opinion...

    GJDM. The only time I've ever done a rep out with 225 (something like 3 years ago when I weighed around 200ish lbs) I also got 17 reps. By NFL combine standards it's pretty damn decent for quite a few positions. Reps on r/c broham.

    My poverty 275x3 paused. Have done 285x2 but don't have it filmed
    STRONG fuking homemade bench press set up lol. Mind = blown.

    275 for a triple definitely isn't in the 315 1RM category unfortunately... I'd rep you if you weighed like 150-160, but I already owe a lot of reps to others in this thread.... thanks for posting though, das it mane.
    Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

    I never maxed raw but I figured mid 4's at least. The key to raw benching is to find your weak points. They are more significant than on a shirted bench. I usually recommend raw competition benches only pause their first rep on every set then touch and go on the other reps.
