When did it become cool for a grown ass man to not be able to bench press 75% of his weight?

Let me paint a picture for you

I walk up to you and your wife, I grab her hand gently and tell her

"Hey baby girl, what are you doing with this sucker? If me and him were locked up in the same cell I'd have him hand washing my socks and underwear"

Your wife laughs flirtatiously and puts her hand on my chest while saying "boi stop, you're so silly"

She then looks at you as if she's a lost and hungry child in need of leadership and direction.

Instead of checking me, you tell her "hey honey, let's go. Love and hip hop starts in 30 mins and I don't wanna miss the beginning. Can you go get the car? You're faster than me"

I walk your wife to the garage while she gets the car. I slide her my business card and tell her to hit me up when she's free.

You know what happens next. :smugfavre:


situation continued:

Your wife hits me up

I come to the crib, she gives me the best head EVER. I strap up and I'm knocking it out the frame

You come home and catch us in bed. I haven't got my nut yet and I don't respect you as a man so I keep going.

You start crying like a little girl and you run to the closet to grab your gun.

You try to shoot me, but the tears in your eyes are messing with your vision, you're too weak to handle to kickback on the gun, and I'm thrusting so fast that you can't catch me. You try to shoot me, you miss and fall over. I pull my pistol out and shoot you while I'm hitting your wife from the back.

You die, your wife collects the insurance money and buys me a luxury car.


You see that right there? THATS why I care.
What happens if you run up on the wrong nikka and he just boxes your face off? nikka just because you bench shyt don't mean you can fight. Some Pernell Whitaker nikka just roll up on you and light you the fukk up.

I agree with the original idea (100% weight; a man should be strong mentally, physically and spiritually), but really...:jbhmm:how often does extreme shyt like this happen in your life?

Lol at thinking you're a "man" because you go to the gym and pick things up, real men go out and hunt wild animals in order to provide food for their families. Ol but I lift heavier things than you ass nikkas.

When was the last time benching 225 or 250 helped you defend your family? That's just an antiquated way of meat head thinking. If you lifting for health then by all means, lifting for aesthetics do you playboy. but stop all that bullshyt I bench such and such to defend my family or my girl, etc..nikkas ain't breaking in homes with dumbbells. Hell your better off saying you take Boxing lessons.

The standard really is that men should be able to do 10 reps of their body weight, which for me is 175 lbs. That's easy.

We got dudes out here that workout with their girls and when she's done, they don't add anymore weight to the bar :mjlol:

Then we got dudes out here that don't train at all :scust:


I would try to do ten reps at 185 but I work out by myself so I'm not trying to do something that could potentially injure me. Not like I'm lifting some low weights cuz I don't have a spotter tho. Just what I'm comfortable with, with being able to complete the set.

Most guys can't fight, and only throw arm punches. 9 times out of 10 its goin come down to who is stronger and more athletic. If you ain't in the gym at least some what, good luck my friend.

But yea...if you roll up on somebody who knows how to box and u don't, u goin get embarrassed regardless of ur strength :heh:

As a general rule, you gotta be able to put up at least 185. I would say 205 but you gotta crawl before you can walk.
