Your combine - bench press

[Zod]

Damn 5 or 6?

That's not a lot. I think every guy should be able to at least bench their weight a few times.

:( I used to be able to. Now I'm fat and weak. What an embarrassment.

Between degenerative joint disease, old elbow injury and a torn rotator cuff I'm happy when it doesn't hurt to get out of bed.

At my best I weighed about 190lbs at the time and I did 17 I think?

Oh and 'good' or 'advanced' on the bench is 1.5x BW and above.

So when and where is the Huddle combine going to take place?

I'm down so long as after getting sweaty and high fiving each other over our awesome bench press reps we can go for spray tans, hair gel and pizza.

2-3 right now.

Back in the day 25 or so.

This. I could do that my senoir year in HS and again several years ago when I went to the gym regularly. Now, I don't go to the gym at all, but probably would be good for 2-4.

No dice, just had my mani/ pedi.

17 reps is all she wrote for me yesterday. but i weigh 255 so it is less impressive than it should be. in college we had to do it at the start of ever season and at 227 i did 21 reps. but my max has never been over 335. it was fun to do this yesterday, it brought back a lot of meat head memories.

[Zod]

I workout alone so never get the chance to see. I would not press that much weight on my own.

Back when I was in college 10-12 now I would be lucky to get 1 or 2. Of course I was always a dumbbell kind of guy wasn't after a bunch of weight (I never did a max thats all for bragging) more about firming up and looking damn good with my shirt off. I miss college.
