How many reps of 135 = 225 max bench?

[SkyFlight23]

title..

how many reps of 135 could you do which would mean you would be able to bench 225?

[baco_bacon]

Probably different for everyone. I put up 135x21 and my max is around 230

[Forshy]

was gunna say like 20

[Sanders21]

I think it was like 21-22 for me

[SomeRandom]

My guess was going to be around 20.

[anabolicgreg]

did 135 21 times today, could of banged couple more out but got tired max = 230

[dan987]

For a more accurate/realistic max.. I'd calculate with weight that you can do 8-10 reps with

[kidkemp]

I think it would be in the higher end of the 20's, I could probably bang out 15-20 and my 1rm is 185.

How about you just actually attempt it..? Different muscle's are recruited due to exhaustin, muscle fatige, etc. Now while for some people it may hold true to results I have personally found that it isn't always true for example i can do a 20 rep deadlift with 225 I can't break 265 for 1. I know its weak I have T-rex arms don't ask, but the best way to know your 1RM for any lift is to actually do it.

this is true to an extent, but on your 1RM every type of muscle fiber is recruited so its kind of a moot point

[brickbullhouse]

prolly like 14

[NitroStigs]

Its different for everyone bro. One of my friends have trouble putting 135 up for 15times, and can get around 230lb for max. I couldn't do 225 untill I hit the 20rep mark. Its a lot more easier to calculate it with a weight you can only do five times.

[LankedOut]

I benched 1 plate for 33 the other day, according to a online calculator I should be able to bench just under 1200lbs.

Brb smashing the raw bench press record.

[juicydanglers]

remember the day i got 207 pounds i got 17 reps out with one plate so 20+ sounds like a good ballpark figure

problem is endurance is gunna come into it so better off finding out with heavier weights

agreed, why not actually try it?..

[eastchris20]

i maxed 235 in march, can do about 18-20 135's.

I can do 135x33 but my max is about 245. Idk how it translates tho

[carlostherock]

Know a kid that did 165x18 and I think his max is around 245.

this made me LOL

[PopOverride]

No idea what mine was, never tried until 30 reps which was around 245.

The average in my school weight room for 225 is 22-25.

That said, this is all meaningless. =]

[Khiemdaman]

This is a Fast twitch vs Slow twitch muscle thing.

[zidez]

It all depends on how you train. I think I was pressing 135 24 times before I hit 225.

hmmm when I first benched 225 for 3 reps I was able to do 135 x 25

[TheNaturalOak]

lol funny thread

there is no way one can say bench x for y reps = z for max

everyones different, work your way up, get a spotter, and see if you can do it.

Obviously if you havnt tried 185/205 or previous lifts, then you shouldnt jst shoot for the moon (probly wld fail and get hurt)

But ne ways ill participate.

Last time i did 135x45 and 225x10 and 275x2

No, not every muscle fiber of every type is recruited.

Thats a link to a calculator on my site that does a pretty good job at guessing this sort of stuff.
Looks like around 15 - 16 reps ... remember that a best guess not an exact number.

[BipolarBrah]

I've never benched 135 past 15 reps. Not really sure how many times I could bench it tbh

I've benched 225x6... but my max is only 245. I've never tried maxing my bench press near the start of a workout

I do 23 reps and I still can't do it. But then again everyone is different
