I can bench one metric ton 10x's I dont have a max because you can only put so many weights on the bar then there is no more room, or it will bend.

I should have never made this post. Its pissing me off. So far I am the WEAKEST person here. WTF! And here I thought most of you were skinny high school dorks! I can bench 170 with it touching my chest for 3 seconds then lifting it up after that. I was trying to do a competition style bench so that there would be no issue as to whether I lifted it. I'm sure some of you bench bounce that shit sky high off your chest. Maybe a bounce contest? Anyway, I can do 170 competition style so I can bench my body weight but not much more.

Wow, a topic a like:
Weight: 210 Height: 6'1"
Max Flat bench: 355lbs.
Max Incline bench: 275lbs.
I rarely try to put up my max and it isn't that easy but my regular routine for flat bench chest is:
135lbs 10 reps (warm up)
225lbs 8reps
315lbs 3 sets, 5 reps at a time

Depends on the year. 93-95 not that rare. 97 more rare. 98 almost impossible to find and are the most prestigeous. Any mods done to it? If so what? Gimme the details and I can give you some info.
It's a 1994, HKS Front Mount, EVC, tons of HKS stuff, it's still got the twins, I'll be going to take a look at it in a few days.
--------------------
Yellow94GT never touched anyone's sig or banned anyone, so I'm going to quit spreading that rumor. It's not like I have any proof anyways. All yellow94gt and other mods have done is volunteer their time to help other people buy/sell parts, learn how to make their cars go faster and meet fellow enthusiasts. I'm a hater, but it's hard to hate on these facts. I have saved hunrdeds, maybe thousands of dollars here buying and selling parts over the years alone, but I don't care, this website owes me damnit, and I'll piss on it as much as I want. Us haters gonna hate. Why contribute to something when you can take for free?
I act like I'm@Age15
I make friends on the internet that are@Age18
I was picked on in my youth so I became a bully@Age24
My mouth started to run 24/7 on the internet, but my car never at the track@Age26
First pubic hair@Age30
Troll@Age31
My internet friends and I ALL just got the boot for good!@Age31
Yes, you read it right, 31 and just as childish as my fresh out of highschool internet friends@31
Oh yeah, this isn't my website, so no one has to ask for my permission to change my sig. Hell, not like I pay the CAFORDS bill, so why should they need my permission to put what they want on their site? We're all guests here. Maybe some of us should start acting like guests or leave?

I don't bounce off the chest, you can really injure yourself doing that. I touch the chest and then go back up.
Its all about proper form, bouncing off your chest is cheating.

Yeah, it kinda cracks me up when I see people bounce of the chest hella hard as if they think they are hella stronger that way or something and acts all aggressive after doing the set. Also cracks me up when people can't really push the weights they stack in the barbell so they lift the the weights of the rack then brings it down 4 inches from the starting point and 12-15inches away from the chest.

5'5", 175 and i typically max out around 270. i say typically because i really haven't lifted much in the past couple months as i've been rehabbing my left shoulder which was dislocated last december. for me, putting up big numbers for my size is just a byproduct of working out and never really a main goal. i play a lot of sports so i pretty much workout for the sake of becoming better at those sports.

Do you workout at the gym next to "Cummins Speedway"? I woulda thought you'd bench more then 170.

ok, that's not rare at all there are lots of 94 6 speeds to be found. At least its obd1. Lemme know what its like. How many miles? Should be around high 400's close to 500 hp on race gas. Stock twins can't do too much damage but they are fun to put around on for a daily. I'm assuming it has exhaust and a down pipe with no cats.

I would out at Cummins Total Fitness. Gym is clean and has a lot of hot chicks. And I'm still having a hard time believing that everyone benches so much. WTF! Maybe I shouldn't talk so much trash I'm still the weakest one here!

Think about it. With a membership of over 6000 here on CaFords, and ya ask a question as to who can bench press what amount, the people who can actually bench-a-damn are the only ones that are gonna respond. So in actuality, there aren't that many who can do what most people would consider "alotta" weight. I don't see why some peeps on here are callin' .
