I tried it for the first time at the bodypower show for abit of fun. 27 reps at 85kg, reckon i could of hit 30+ fresh but my triceps were f**ked from shoulders the day before. | ||

 See You Next Tuesday Member 2254, 3824 posts SQ 240, BP 165, DL 300705.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | The 3 man lift off was just for saftey reasons. It was crap on my behalf too, the bench was realy short and the width of the rack wasnt even big enough to hold the bar right. | ||

 Old Age Presser Member 75, 7745 posts SQ 0, BP 200, DL 200400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | Me, not as many as I should. I've got a weird strength curve. I go from easy rep to start to work rep to fail, I guess because I train for maximal lifts rather than strength endurance. Maybe a better test for strength (as opposed to endurance) guys would be reps with 150% bodyweight? Sorry Neil!! On the original question, not tried for a while but I think I did 18 with 100 2 or 3 years ago. | ||

 Member 2276, 514 posts SQ 240, BP 195, DL 260695.0 kgs @ 79kgs UnEq | i did this challenge last year i THINK i came 3rd overall over the course of the weekend with 37, i would like to see what i could get with a couple of weeks training for it and decent food on the day and a warm up. no video proof i'm afraid tho. i think i might have a video somewhere of 100kg for 25 reps tho, thats the lightest i usually go in training. | ||

Mike, if you genuinely bench 180 raw at 79 Kg, you're 7.5 Kg better than the GBPF British senior record standard in the 83 Kg class! http://www.englishpowerlifting.co.uk/GBPFrecords/mensunequippe... Do you compete? | ||

 technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | Imo guys around the 100kg mark should be able to do 20+ reps at that bodyweight BW to strength ratio means f**k all IMO....we wouldnt admire Z & Shaw etc so much if it did | ||

Do you compete? x2. that's pretty ridiculous at 80kg bodyweight. isn't that better than rob palmer's record. | ||
