re: Press to Bench Ratio

A lot depends on the person. I haven’t been working out that long and the difference between my dumbbell chest press and shoulder press stays between 20lbs. Around 80lbs for chest and 60 for shoulder right now. A standing press is way harder than sitting down, so there should be a big difference in that weight.

I know some elite power lifters who can rep over 500 on bench and maybe do a couple reps of close to 400 on shoulder press.
