How long do you think it would take me to bench 185 from 130 pounds?

[panda200]

I currently am stuck at 130 pounds and i was wondering how long it would take for me to bench 185. Tips will be appreciated.

[spiderman997]

Depends on roughly 1 billion factors like diet, training regime and frequency, whether you work on form, etc.

2.5-3 months if you play your cards right

How strict should nutrition be, and how often should i do a muscle group per week. I always wondered if teens recuperate faster than adults, as my friends seem to workout their body parts much more frequently than I do. I get about 8 hours of sleep per night. What is a good split you recommend?

[billionman]

took me about 2 months of intense training from 135 bench to 185 and i weighed the same.

[WhiteKnight4U]

if you eat a ton, and learn proper form, id say 2 months lol

if yuou already have proper form, about 5 - 8 lbs a week or soemthing.

[MikeHawkdown]

If you eat lots and train properly I'd say 2-3 months.

Are you guys serious? It took me two months to go from 95 to 135. And that was from when I was a complete beginner. How's it possible to go from 130 to 180 in that time. I just don't see how that can happen.

First year of BB'ing thats simple to do if your diet and workout regimen is in check.

[JTBodyBuild]

took me a good 4 months. (i was losing fat during this time too)

[ILLUSION818]

2.5 months

Maybe I'm just doing it all wrong cause my progress has slowed waaayyy down and I've only been lifting for a few months.

[comps]

Too many factors. Over 2 months probably.

[AntonyC]

depends on a lot. Assuming you're eating well, resting well, taking BCAAs, fish oil, and a multi (and maybe creatine), and doing a Starting Strength routine, not long.

add 5 lbs per workout
bench 3x every 2 weeks
thats 30lbs to your bench a month, you want to add 55.
so about 2 months,
add in stalling, a deload/reset and whatnot you're looking at about 2.5 months.
You wont be able to progress like this for much longer than that I dont think.

around august i was able to hit 135 like 2 times, and i yesterday i tried to max out for the first time and hit 180 so it will happen bro, keep lifting heavy

I used ronnie colemans workout routine with a strict diet of chicken,tuna,ramen(without salt packet) rice,hotdogs and for breakfast a big bowl of oatmeal. And my supplement stack was Protein Shake 65g, creatine, tribulus, fish oil, flaxsed oil, borage oil, optimen multi and ZMA. And noxplode for pre workout, it works miracles for energy and fatigue.

I went from benching about 95 pounds to 275 in maybe 10 months i think.


you can get from 135 to 185 in 2 months max if you follow bench based programs


you can also get from 185 to 225 in another 2months,or 2.5


btw, you might be able to do it all in even 1.5 months each, for a total of 3-3.5 months from 135 to 225 if you do it right.


so yeah idk what half these guys are talking about..

if you want help with a good bench routine, ask me

[Cuongpham]

Stop asking when will you get there! Train hard you'll be suprise by the time u get it.

[CubsGuy17]

Do the smolov jr. program

[michaelhouser]

depending on how hard you lift, it could be like 2-3 months, just keep it up. try adding 5lbs to your bench everytime you go in, do as many as possible and only go back down weight if its absolutely necessary. also, be sure and do dumbell bench, my trainer always said thats how you build real strength and it definately worked for me. one more thing, be sure to work the rest of your chest and the rest of your body just as hard and youll be surprised in all the gains you make everywhere.
