No dumb f*ck, 135 is the bar plus 2 45 pound plates. The bar only weighs 35 or 45 pounds, depend on which kind of bar you are using. I generally use the 45 pound bar.

I also did 185 17 times as a 16 year old. :myman:

you need to use English language properly, your horrendous wording makes it difficult to understand, similar to listening to a 5 year old scream and whine.

I never understood why benching got to be so overrated. Deadlifts, Squats, Weighted Dips, Weighted Pull/chinups, Overhead/Military Press and power cleans are just as good, if not better, exercises than the Bench Press.

But I agree with the other dude that said 135 should be the barometer for benching, at least when it comes to someone that has a decent/average fitness level.

Ima keep it a hunnid. It took me a minute just to bench above 110 pounds. Ive always been skinny and my arms are long as fukk. this is back in like freshman year of college though. I can lift pretty normally on most other exercises but the bench kicks my ass every time. Body weight might be it for me with added reps.
