Let me know when you can do 300lbs for 10 reps, then I'll be impressed and consider that your bench. Not just once.

Same man. I tell people I can only bench 225. I can only do it 10 times. So would feel bad saying I bench more than that.

100% this. Would rather push decent weight controlled with good form to a point where the last reps are difficult. Much better than looking like your eyes are about to pop out because you just have to get some magical number set in your head….only to get messed up and placed out of commission for weeks/months. And that’s before even getting into maintaining longevity of joints.

Wat? If someone told me they could bench 300 lbs. I would assume that was their 1RM. Didn't know when you tell someone how much you bench you're supposed to tell them what you can do for 10+ reps lol

10 is a bit excessive but I'd say the answer to what's your bench is what you can do for 5 slow/controlled reps on any given day.

Just cause you 1RM'd a certain weight with a huge bounce off your chest and your ass a foot off the bench doesn't mean that's what you can bench.

I can hit 315 for about 4 right now. Coming off of a bad hand injury that took me out of seriously lifting for a few months. I would never claim I "bench 335" or whatever my 1RM is. Always claim the weight your working sets (3+ reps) are.

If you asked 100 random people to describe what it means to answer what they bench, 99 of them would say it's your 1RM. Sometimes even all 100 would.

your max is not the same as your normal bench.


doing something once is not the same as comfortably doing it 10 times


saying your one rep max is your bench is little man small D syndrome


if you can hit a three point shot one time, it doesnt mean thats your range.
if steph curry can make 10 threes from that spot in a row, thats his range.
