Android Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 just 150, you're so modest Harry~!I used the calculator and while I can do 8 reps at 140 touch-and-go if I'm fresh, it says I can do 177.66kg 1RM :shock: reckon the pause sucks about 20kg from that 1RM so I'll be good for 150 too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomleegolf Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 What's this? Can I play? Current bench is 80 @ Auckland novice in July. Couldn't be happier if I could bench 100 by end of this year. I know, pussy bench it is but I'm only 66kg and 17... :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuelNZ Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Not very likely, but I'd love a 140 by BBro.Wishful thinking I know, but might as well give it a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Bench Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Last chance yesterday to post something at the South Island Bench Champs. Opened with 215kg, passed on second to save some energy. Pressed 245kg on my final attempt but missed 2 to 1 for bar dropping. hard to see on vid but must have been my right arm. Not quite 262.5kg this year but feeling good heading into 2012. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Bench Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Hard luck bro! What does bar dropping mean? To a noob the lift looks good?If the bar moves down during the press then its a fail. Pretty hard to see on the video but if two refs saw it must have been something, but not much.

He kinda starts his push, then stops and drops the bar (ever so slightly) then pushes a second time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomleegolf Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Crazy bench BestBench! Current bench is 80 @ Auckland novice in July. Couldn't be happier if I could bench 100 by end of this year. I got 90, but failed on 95 twice. Really lagging, my bench. It's half my squat, and 100kgs less than my deadlift!
