225 bench press

[joeblow12345]

It's been a while since I've done 225 for max reps. I usually just do 8-10 as I'm warming up. So I have no clue what my rep max is on it. The most recent rep max I did was 315 for 19 and I needed help on 20 so I don't count it. I don't usually go beyond 12 reps on bench though as it beats the hell out of my shoulders.

If i warmed up and went for max reps I can hit about 18-20 reps of 225. I'm 22 years old, 192 pounds, no supplements except preworkout. 225 rep out - YouTube Video of one of my 225 sets

You need to get a wider grip. Your arms are too long to grip that close. I'd go at least pinky on the ring if not ring or middle. Slowly work it out and you will be able to lift more in the long run.

Not trying to be an ass but doing bench on the smith machine is MUCH easier than simply a flat bench

Who said anything about doing it on a smith machine???

 

[ppgfreak]

I have never done it for max reps. But I've done a couple sets of 20 in a row, so I know its over 20
