Date: March 6th, 2012 12:30 PM Author: Bat-shit-crazy purple senate party of the first part something doesn't sound right. 90db is at least 185 on your back. and really more like 205.
check your elbows. Are you flaring them on one and not the other?
it's a form issue it sounds like on the bench. |

Date: March 6th, 2012 12:32 PM Author: angry disrespectful set 45db in each hand - 90 total
90 total x 5 rep 90 total x 9 rep 90 total x 5 rep |

Date: March 6th, 2012 12:33 PM Author: Bat-shit-crazy purple senate party of the first part OOOOOOH. I misunderstood. I thought you meant 90 in each hand.
In that case, I would just stay away from bench altogether and just keep rising on dbs because bench would be something like 95 and while I am definitely an advocate of not caring what other people think...putting 25s on a bar could be embarrassing for some. |

Date: March 6th, 2012 3:14 PM Author: hairraiser gas station yikes, not sure. Keep developing those stabilizers though, bro. DB bench is great, but you should also do some pushup variations (tricep pushups, incline pushups, clappers, alternating med ball pushups). I don't ever max with DB bench because I've never seen the utility in it, but I comfortably do four sets of 10 with 70 in each hand. My max bench is 250, probably a little less these days. keep at it though, bro. Also, don't give a shit about what people might think of you at the gym. Most cool bros don't hate on people starting out, and anyone who snickers at someone for "being weak" is a scumbag whose opinion doesn't matter anyway.

Date: March 6th, 2012 3:18 PM Author: hairraiser gas station He should be able to do a couple reps at 135, no? That's not embarrassing. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1891386&forum_id=2#20138482) |

Date: March 6th, 2012 3:22 PM Author: Bat-shit-crazy purple senate party of the first part honestly, in my mind it's irrelevant because OP seems to be worried about the #. The number to me is just a bad thing to focus on as a beginner. Either you are fit or not--a better metric. And it's all relative. If he is db benching 45s then his focus should simply be on getting better at that 45 with slow progression.
