If you can bench 225 after 6 months you’re ridiculously strong

[BawssPlayer]

Can’t believe the internet is normalizing a 225 bench 💀

[llie]

6 months and I can finally rep out 135 dawg you are trippin. 🤣

[patrickbrannigan]

Started working out at 140lbs. I’m 6’ 2” and 2 years later im 190lbs and i’m just barely hitting 225. Do NOT listen to this guy. If you’re hitting 225 after 6 months of working out then you were already naturally strong. Numbers don’t matter as much as consistency. Everyone stay blessed and safe in your workouts 🙏🏻

As someone who started benching the bar I’m pretty impressed with my 285 pound bench

[drisanaston]

No way my guy just normalized a 225 bench and then said anybody can do a 315 bench

[pauldraper]

"99% of guys can hit 315 naturally, no problem"
Doubt

[Whoreallyknows]

I’m 235lb bodybuilder and powerlifter. I’ve been benching for 20 years and my all time best is bench is 405.
It took me years to finally hit 225. I remember the struggle to go from 185 to 205 it felt like forever. Don’t worry too much about fast results just keep working and the results will come.

[Gooooofey]

I just hit it today, it took 9 whole months from 145 to 225. Such a good feeling

[TheMightyMuch]

All that fucking matters, is that you are stronger than you were when you started. They're just numbers. True strength is knowing you improved what you were, and that you did it on your own, because it was you vs you.

Me who weighs 120 lbs at 5’3 and just hit 175 lbs bench after a year and a half of training 6 days a week💀

[mxrntjh]

Body weight should be a big part of this conversation.

[FangCWAEmu]

Been about 7 months in the gym, started benching only 75. Hit 135 in December, up to 185 for 1 now. Goal is to hit 225 by the end of the year

[mounirtannir]

At 22 years old, 170lbs of weight, i literally benched 225 for the first time today. Did it for 2 reps and i couldn’t be happier.

[notlookinforahug]

“99% of guys can get a 315 bench naturally no problem…”

Wtf is wrong with these kids????

[crimes]

i actually deadass just hit for the first time ever 225 today

[noa]

225 is pretty hard, the fact that Internet is trying to normalize it, its dumb

[ethanbrown]

as someone who is 120lbs I'm happy with my 180lb bench press

[randomshyte]

Listen man i can barely lift the bar alone no weights.
You have earned the right to be happy with your 225.

[austindavid]

Definitely depends on your size as well (height and weight)
