How Much Do You DB OVERHEAD PRESS?

[steveo]

130's for 6, the hardest part is getting the first one up, then after that its kind of a rhythm

 

[maximized]

I can press 70's 3 sets, around 8x reps. i can do like 75's maybe 4x. but you know, in order for this to be a good poll, we need to know your weight i think. i mean, if someone is pressing 70's and they weigh 150lbs, thats damn good. if they are pressing 70's and weigh like 250, that really sux. (no offense meant to anyone, just making a point) so myself, i weigh 192lbs. i usually do barbell press though and i do 175lbs. anyway, good poll, i always like to see where i am compared to others...

peace all.

I decided to drop a bit of the volume in my workouts for the next month (focusing on strength training) and today being shoulder/back/bicep day I did 70's for 4 reps and 2 sets (after deadlifts and close grip pull-ups). I weighed in at 155 today.

It's very impressive how many of you people I've never met in person that can hoist 100+ lbers

well said. myself, i'm able to press the 66's (i know it's a weird weight, we use the metric system (it's 30 kgs)) for reps, althought my shoulders hurt when i do that due to an accident. oh yeah im 182 at 6'3', good point about that maximized!

btw im really impressed with some of the ladies, thats quite a lot of weight, more than my training partner can handle! props
