I don't like to discuss the weights I do on the Internet because it either looks like you are showing off or bullshitting.

Or look like a pussy beside those that are bullshitting...

i dont do it with 225 but i end with 315 for as many as i can do and i have done it 16 times for my best and regulary do it 14 or so no help.. flat hurts my shoulders now after all the years of heavy lifting.. had a very monor tear doing 405 8 times at 230 before precontest diet in 96...never do that again!!

I've torn both pecs!One pec 4 years ago and the other
2 months ago...and I'm only 24.
I did about 50 quick reps years ago.My max was about 500.
Didn't help to stay away from flat benches as this second tear
happened on smith incline.

I did alot of hammer incline presses before the tear.I managed
8 reps with 250 per arm.How much have you done on this
machine?

Damm I feel good now, I thought I was weaker

I am not here to brag just to post my #'s

225 for 31 controlled reps

Max at 390

I weigh 174lbs. 5'8"

Everyone tells me I am strong for my size but there is always someone out there who is stronger and bigger. I want to be that guy.

Honestly I don't really care how much I can bench I would be happy Maxing at 315 and looking bigger than I do.

17 yrs old...i can do 225 3 sets of 6--only have taken creatine, protein, glutamine, xzenadrine. the most i ever maxed was 265. im thinkin about losing some fat and gettin down a little in weight and possible compete in a bench press competition they have in my city. im 5'9 180, wanna get cut up at about 175 and be able to bench 100lbs over my weight...thats my goal right now. lata, juice17

Holy shit. I'm surprised you ended up tearing the other pec instead of Re-tearing the previously torn one.
Scary shit..

My thoughts exactly. WHO CAN BENCH 3 TIMES THEIR BODY WEIGHT OR SQUAT 4 TIMES THEIR BODY WEIGHT? TO ME THAT IS IMPRESSIVE. I never saw anybody do it in person. To me that is a FREAK, in terms of pushing some weight.

I haven't tried to rep out with 225 in a while but the last time i did with 315, I did 17 reps so I would guess in the mid 30's with 225. Have not benched in over 2 months though since I partially tore my pec doing 405 for 5. Heavy benching is NOT something to do every week, as I've learned.
