It'd interesting to know height and body weight of everyone claiming 20+ reps.

I can’t believe all the zeros I see on here. What a bunch of weaklings.

BTW my count is 0. .5 really, but I’m not taking the chance no one will help me get that crap off my chest.

1/2/3/4 (1RM) is probably better than 95% of the male population. It's so awesome that we have the top 5% of the world's strongest men all posting on the OT. Kinda how 0.3% of the population identifies as transgender and 99% of them reside in Hollywood by some miracle.

10-12 times but I'm gettin' old





I would wager my meager life savings that that majority of the OT would struggle putting up 135 for quality reps. Just because you half rep 215 for 3 shaky reps in the Smith Machine doesn't mean you can """probably""" bench 225.

If you’ve ever been an actual decent gym before, you’ll see quite a few guys repping 2 plates.

You have to consider the vast, vast majority of people in the world don’t work out at all. Also have to consider that people in western and certain other countries have better access to things like good nutrition, info, equipment etc. as well as more of an interest in weight lifting. So it’s not at all crazy to have a decent amount of people on here that can do it.
