G95champ Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 If you can get 200lbs by the age of 15 thats really good. In HS I never got over 250lbs. I just never worked on my bench any. Spent time cleaning and squating. I went up over 300 last spring. I do not lift hard anymore I left enough to maintain. Im 24 by the way. I am the asst. HS football coach and I run the weight training program at our school. So I spend more time watching the guys lift and spotting I hit a set or 2 when I can but I have not lifted to get big or anything like that since the late 90's. (General George S.

Phantasmatic Posted May 10, 2002 Author Posted May 10, 2002 Wow, G95 you must be a beast though!!! Anyone that can bench 300 lbs and still squat and clean is a Weightlifting MASTA! "Which one is more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?" - Obi Wan Kenobi
G95champ Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 Guys I am guessing you all are in your mid teens thus 300 seems like a lot. Let me tell you that no Im not that strong. We had guys on my HS football team that benched over 400 lbs. and a few over 500. Us guys in West Virginia are big boys lots of beans and cornbread. LOL. My High Schools Weightroom Reccord look like this. Bench Brock Mounts 520lbs Squat Brock Mounts 630lbs Leg Press Greg Robinette 1500lbs Clean Bret Browning 300lbs We have had great football teams in the past and our work in the wightroom is the reason why. My brother is a FR playing football for WVU now and he benches 340 and that is weak for the team. Most Sr. at a D1 college bench high 400's. Thanks for making me feel good. LOL.... (General George S.
