I was just curious about how much should a 155lb male be able to bench if they are very fit?100% of their own weight? 150%? over 900!?
around 150%
>>30907my friend benches 225 for 3-4 and he's 165-168 depending on time of day.. just as a gauge. he hasn't gone to the gym regularly in over a year though, he used to have 225 for 10-12 and he was 160-165 then
Here you are, some actual statistics, not bullshit some kid made up.
>>30907Oh shi-
>>30933yeah because this is really official looking with all its references! according to that every person i know who has gone to a gym more then once is just under or above advanced
>>30938That sounds like bullshit my friend.
>>30933Judging based on my own weight and experience, this seems about right.
>>30933Agreed, this is about right.
>>30933Wow, is it just me or is that chart incredibly sexist?
>>32117Human women are by nature muscularly weaker than men. What's sexist about that?
Better to use this site which shows all the muscle groups and many ways to condition them with moving images of how to correctly do them.http://www.exrx.net/Exercise.html>>32135I agree. I'm a 102lb female and I do about 35-40lbs when I'm at the gym with a friend of mine. I don't think it's sexist. It's jsut that guys can put on more muscle then girls can.
>>30933we need more like this
>>30933is that just once, or a standard say 12 reps x 3 sets average?
