Post your heaviest bench ever(gym, comp, whatever, doesn't need to be current)
And your wrist girth(measured at the smallest part of your wrist)
i'll start
200 pounds
6.5 inches
obviously this doesn't PROVE anything
its just a simple correlation study
(it doesn't even include how long you've been lifting)
we're looking for big wrists with big benches, small wrists with big benches, small wrists with small benches, big wrists with small benches
encourage everyone's participation!

Bench Press to Wrist Girth Correlation
The muscles i value most are the ones directly surrounding the spine, the hips, the scapula, the femur and the tibia... in that order.
Basically the whole body minus chest and biceps... pretty much the opposite of what your local gym looks like on a typical Monday.
