I maxed out at 11 so I guess I should get drafted higher than TM7, who did 4

How many did y'all max out at?

The truth will set you free in this thread

Bench ain't my favorite lift

Probably twice now if I'm lucky.

Once. My one rep max was 230 or 235. I would struggle with 135 right now.

Well, as 155 lb senior in HS who played basketball and lacrosse, I maxed out at 210 lbs. So I could bench 225 lbs 0 times.

i did 135 once in high school

my arms are also 6 inches longer than they're supposed to be, so weight lifting is not my thing

My max was somewhere in the 205-215 range so I estimated 210, don't remember exactly. Not 225 though.

In high school? 0

Now? I have a torn rotator cuff, so I do DB bench. I do BB Decline Bench, and I can put up 225 about ten times on decline.

If healthy, 15 or so.

I did it for my last set today for 6. In high school my max was 230 so I never got to do 225. Coach didn't believe in 1 rep maxes.
