I'll rep if you give me a rough guideline on what would be the equivalent to a 225lbs bench ...weighted dips (80lbs) at 178?

You can't do it with dips breh,prolly some dumbbells,but it varies breh,because you got some cats who can hit 225 and cant attach a 45lb plate to them and do dips,while you got some cats who can and can't hit 225,it just depends man

what do you brehs consider the equivalent to a 225 bench ...
e.g. how much weight would you need to add to your dip ?
Well, you can lift less in the incline bench press, and lift even less in the military press. But if you do a decline press, you can lift more.
Doing dips involves a bunch of different muscles and doesn't involve the pecs as much so it's not worth comparing or finding an equivalent.
