how many members can rep 225 on bench press for 40 reps

[DrJay]

The most I've ever done 225 was 28 times and that was a few months ago when I was cutting and just felt like repping it out to exhaustion. In April I benched 545 for 1 rep while on a cycle and thats my best to date. I think you can have the best of both worlds depending on when your "on" or "off" juice. I never go over 405 when I'm off but when I'm on I really push it - thats the way I grow!

My bench routine now that I'm "off"

warm up 135 - ? (till I feel warmed up LOL!)
225 - 2 sets of 20
315 - 2 sets of 10 (rarely get 10 the 2nd time - 8-9)
405 - 1 set - anywhere between 3-6
burn out - 225 - exhaustion!

cmon mr H larry allen is by far the best lineman in the nfl today...G

Maybe back in the day but not anymore! Johnathan Ogden (Ravens) and Orlando Pace (Rams) just off the top of my head.

Larry Allens play is just like Emmitts yardage the past few years......fading fast!!!

Wow 5 plates on Hammer flat bench 2 years ago when I could barely max 275 on regular bench I would work out with three plates for 8 on hammer strength flat bench. But if your saying you could put up 500 on barbell flat bench good for you I just dont see it adding up..
