AW your 1 rep max weight bench press!

[pinkwillow]

We just did this yesterday at CF. Mine was 145lbs! (up from 95lbs) ;D

What's yours?

That is awesome! The heaviest thing I lift is my son (he is kindof huge ), so I'm impressed!

[drtouble]

Mine right now is 100 lbs. My goal is to be able to do 10 reps at 100 lbs by 6/18. I've been working on this for the last couple weeks and I can do 5 unassisted.

Nice!

We've never tested our 1RM bench press...we never really use benches. The only 1RMs we do regularly are deadlifts and squats.

110lbs is my max, but that was a few months ago. I haven't lifted heavy since the studio opened.

Nice!

My tops is 110lbs when I was training for my gym's bench press competition a year ago. I basically haven't benched much since.

This may be a dumb question, but do you count the weight of the bar, or no?

Yes.

Good job ladies! I was very surprised I got up to 145!

[starryfish]

85 but that is at least 6+ weeks old I think.

135# last week. My trainer refused to tell me what it was until we were done. Smart man.

As a side note....there are a couple of women body builders at my gym and I watched the one do a set of 12 reps at 185 lbs. I was super impressed.

I honestly have no clue. I should dust off the weights in my garage, make DH spot me and find out.
