I just can't stop laughing at the topic title. That's pretty good weight though.

115lb dumbbells, 6 times 1 with help. Goal is to get to 135lb dumbbells in the next 6 weeks. My elbow is hurt/sore from a tricep workout 2 weeks ago thats why it has tape on it. The Tape helped even though you wouldn't think it would. The title of this is from a saying off the bodybuilding.com site. [Razz]

That's decent weight your putting up but that is a little low compared to your flat bench IMO but I also think it depends how fatigue you are from previous exercises you did that day.

I'm 6'1" 215lbs, max bench 365 although I will only do max like that maybe once a month to see exactly where my strength level is and put up 145lb dumbells on my flat. I only lift 15lbs heavier than you on your barbell. Don't get it twisted though, alot of people on here cant lift close to 115lb dumbbells and from 115lb to 120lb dumbbell is a big difference once you get on it. Keep doing your thang and you'll get there.

115lb dumbbells was my last set. i started off with the 90lbers for 10, then 105 for 8, then 115 for 6 and then i went down to 85 and did 8 for a burn out.

i am starting my next 6 week program tonight. its chest night so i'll warm up with 135lbs and then go up to 300 from there

Your pyramid set is pretty good. Try to start 5/10lbs heavier than the previous week and you should get up there in weights pretty quick.

If you started with 90lbs, 105lbs to 115lbs last set, do 100, 110 to 120 next time yo do chest. Trust me, you can do it.

Yeah thats what i am going to do but i had to take a week off after doing the 115s i injured my elbow from doing skullcrushers with a 110lb dumbell (it still hurts) and i strained my back doing deadlifts.
I did chest tonight and i did kept it cool, i did 5 sets of flat with 135, 5 sets of incline with 135 and 5 sets of decline with 135. It was good, got a huge pump from it. 1st set of flat bench i really felt my elbow hurting and then the 2nd set the pain was gone.

I alternate between barbell and dumbbell. This week is all barbell work next week is dumbbell work. I plan on doing 85lb, 95, 105lb for dumbbells next week and then move up again and again until i am doing the 130s+
