    highest tested is 130, but I'm currently doing an 8-week programming cycle (benching 5x a week which is fricking hellish, plus accessories out of the ass) which should have me benching 3pl8 at least for a single. On the plus side my chest is getting major hypertrophy benefits from the absurd volume. I only worry for my OHP numbers

        Stop benching so wide anon. A lot of pictures have peoples arms at exaggerated distances apart.
        I bench about a hands width in from the central knurling. From where the bar goes slick, on hand's width outwards.
        Pretty narrow but it utilises more triceps and helps me hit higher weights.

        its clearly not max effort sets everyday bro don't be obtuse, at most its 80% for 3x3 with 1-2 days a week going higher on the weight or the volume. I've tried the 4 week varient before and it took me from a 112kg 1rm to 128. Look up bulgarian training methods and then tell me 80% only 5x a week is too much

        Nothing wrong with benching 5x a week. I just started benching 6x to try and get my bench to move because after the initial gains from adjusting to 5x frequency (+5 lbs), I gained nothing.

          How do you try and optimize bench gains without sacrificing OHP? all I want is to be able to maintain a 2pl8 OHP and 3pl8 bench (ill settle for 95kg ohp)

            I'm a powerlifter, so ohp is not high on the list of my priorities. However, if you wanted training for the two to not diverge wildly, I would not bench with a huge arch or max grip, as that's what I do and my ohp is piss poor.

              fair enough, I tend to bench fairly narrow for working sets but go wide for singles/dubs just so my triceps can catch a break. mirin that strength, how long before you hit 405 you think?

                I've been working at 4 pl8 for months now. I thought the 5x frequency would get me there but my body can apparently take a frickload of bench volume now so it wasn't enough. If 6x bench frequency works though, I estimate something around 3-4 months.

    78 kg bodyweight, did 86 kg for 3x4 yesterday. Could have done 3x5 but I wasn't in my usual gym, wasn't as comfortable and the bench sucked.

    Nothing crazy but I'm real close to that 2pl8 1rm.

    Last time I benched like 2 years ago, pre pandemic, it was 95kg. No idea how much it would be now, but I can do 100 push ups in a row and 60kg ohp x2 or 3 reps on a good day

    67kg on 80kg bench for 5 reps. I did 2 reps of 90kg a while back but I'm a loner and don't have anyone to spot me. Just continuing slowly
