Would you consider it impressive/strong? Bodyweight of 228lbs to 230lbs
John cena himself ?!Jon Cena once said he hits 315(max or reps not sure of) while in his swole stage. So its possible depending on goals.
225 plates at 228 LBS OF BODY WEIGHT is not a good lift. It’s okayYes, its a strong lift.
No, not many HS kids are doing it. (Big FB player athletes yes, average twinks, no)...
I agree somewhat that it's nothing special, though I think it's still a decent lift. The average high school power lifter can't bench 300lbs for a 1RM. 20+ x 225 is a projected 1RM of 375+lbs, so I don't think it's high schoolers that are benching 225x20+.It’s nothing special, it’s good work but it’s high schoolers that do 20+.
OP said 225x14, not 225x1.225 plates at 228 LBS OF BODY WEIGHT is not a good lift. It’s okay
Yeah I can read.OP said 225x14, not 225x1.
49 is the record, but not the norm. And this is the NFL combine, college players that will be going in to the draft to be elite professional athletes 4-5 months later. Only the 300+lb linemen reach the 30s in reps for the most part. The 200lb RB or DB averages in the teens in reps. 225lbs x14 reps is a projected 1RM of 330lbs. So, the OP is not quite at elite athlete strength and likely won't win his weight class at a regional power lifting meet, but he probably out-benches most of the guys in his gym.I believe the college football combine record for 225 is 49 reps. 14 reps is not “impressive” unless you don’t work out at all.
Already assumed that since you are posting on an internet board. Care to clarify "225 plates at 228 LBS OF BODY WEIGHT is not a good lift. It’s okay" since no one else was talking about 225x1? Perhaps I misunderstood.Yeah I can read.
I didn’t say that every high schooler (far from it) can do it, I said it is high schoolers that can do it. I don’t really understand how this can be a argument at all, everyone on this site should know better.I agree somewhat that it's nothing special, though I think it's still a decent lift.

I never said no high schooler (far from it) can do it, I said, "average high school power lifter." So, "average high school power lifter" doesn't mean all high schoolers, nor no high schoolers. Posting a video of a single mutant high schooler doing over 20 reps make your comment "it's high schoolers that do 20+" (your exact words) right, as if high schoolers doing 20+ is the norm. Everyone on this site should know better. It sounds like you meant some high schoolers can, but what's the point, since it's possible that there is a girl out there that out benches you? There are freaks out there, but the OP just asked if his lift was impressive or strong. Your comment came off like it's typical that high schoolers are out benching him by a mile.I didn’t say that every high schooler (far from it) can do it, I said it is high schoolers that can do it.

For reference, here are the averages (which was what I referenced in my comment before) by age and weight class for high school power lifters, so athletes that lift heavy weight, not the chess club.

Name calling on an internet board. Awesome. Simply because you posted a dumbass comment and I question it, I'm an "angry lesbian that wants to argue about everything." It's a discussion board. That's literally why most of us are here.And you coming off as an angry lesbian that wants to argue about everything, I bet you can find better forums for your needs elsewhere.
Yes, everything you posted is very true and the ability of those athletes is impressive. 225x14 for someone thar regularly works out isn’t impressive but is good.49 is the record, but not the norm. And this is the NFL combine, college players that will be going in to the draft to be elite professional athletes 4-5 months later. Only the 300+lb linemen reach the 30s in reps for the most part.

As far as finding another forum... I'm sorry, is this your personal forum? Are you running things now?? I've been a member here since 2004, junior. So f*ck off with sh*t.
What are you 12? Do you troll everyone that disagrees when you post something stupid, or am I getting special treatment?lol, what the fvck are you going to do pencil neck? Go scissor somewhere else dyke
So far it’s only you that been posting stupid sh*t and since you been so busy debating everyone it haven’t been a chance for anyone to post anything useful. Now, pls go back to whatever debate forum you snowflakes cry on.What are you 12? Do you troll everyone that disagrees when you post something stupid, or am I getting special treatment?
I'm sure the OP appreciates all of your useful input in this thread.
Everything I have posted in this thread has been meant to contribute to the subject, besides defending against your childish insults. I don't think you understand the point of a forum. You are supposed to discuss and debate. People disagree. You tried to defend your initial post against statements I did not say, then started throwing insults like a child. You are obviously not reading everything I am writing. My intent was never to attack you, though I disagreed with your statement, because your post seemed to state something (that I was not the only one that read it that way) that was categorically wrong, and I and another member pointed it out.So far it’s only you that been posting stupid sh*t and since you been so busy debating everyone it haven’t been a chance for anyone to post anything useful.

Whatever you say snowflake, you keep on proving my point that you are in fact a angry lesbian that just want to debate just for the sake of debating. It’s unfortunate for everyone here that you been here so long, pls do everyone a favor and show yourself out and find a dyke forum that fits your needs for debating instead pencil neck.Everything I have posted in this thread has been meant to contribute to the subject, besides defending against your childish insults.

If you would have just said something like, "What I meant was this.." or something it'd be all good we'd be posting in a different thread or something now. But instead you got defensive and cocky, and felt like you could tell me whether I can post my opinion in this forum like it's yours or something. I got 12 years in this forum on you, you don't get to tell me shyt about what forum I should use. I was here when the members were sponsoring this site. The name of this forum is AnabolicMinds, where the motto is (or at least used to be) "Teach. Learn. Lead." Perhaps that was before your time... But if you're going to throw a fit every time someone disagrees with you, "I bet you can find better forums for your needs elsewhere."
And the guy that doesn't have an avatar in a bodybuilding/fitness forum after almost 5 years doesn't get to call me pencil neck.
Impressive by general public standards then yes absolutely. Most non gym goer ppl can not bench there own bodyweight 1x.Would you consider it impressive/strong? Bodyweight of 228lbs to 230lbs
snowflake.
All hail the internet king!!Whatever you say snowflake, you keep on proving my point that you are in fact a angry lesbian that just want to debate just for the sake of debating.

lol, now I know why you got so sensitive with my first post, you’re a fat little lesbian with a butch haircut that can’t lift close to that weight and when I proved that a high schooler was a lot stronger than you you got mad a called him a “mutant”, sorry, the truth hurts pencil neck but you’re just weak.
You're right.lol, now I know why you got so sensitive with my first post, you’re a fat little lesbian with a butch haircut that can’t lift close to that weight and when I proved that a high schooler was a lot stronger than you you got mad a called him a “mutant”, sorry, the truth hurts pencil neck but you’re just weak.
I don’t know what’s all the argument about lol and why you’re bringing a chart of average lifts.. this is a bodybuilding forum so we don’t really associate with "average everyday jo". There’s not really a debate 225 for a set of 12-14 is NOT impressive. Is it a decent lift? Yes.Already assumed that since you are posting on an internet board. Care to clarify "225 plates at 228 LBS OF BODY WEIGHT is not a good lift. It’s okay" since no one else was talking about 225x1? Perhaps I misunderstood.
The chart was about the "but it’s high schoolers that do 20+" comment. I don't recall mentioning "average everyday jo," aside from saying he may out lift most of the guys at his own gym (depending on where you go I suppose). It was a chart of high school power lifters' averages that showed only the bigger weight classes (265lbs and up) of 18 year olds averaged around a 300lb 1RM, which is probably about 10 reps of 225lbs. Just saying I don't think there are that many high schoolers pushing 20+ reps of 225.I don’t know what’s all the argument about lol and why you’re bringing a chart of average lifts.. this is a bodybuilding forum so we don’t really associate with "average everyday jo".

I understand your points and I don’t disagree... what made me go meh is the fact he’s 228 lbs mostlyI never said no high schooler (far from it) can do it, I said, "average high school power lifter."

That was my dad.I had a friend in high school who’s cousin’s father knew a guy who benched 585x14…I think he was natural and had only lifted weights one time too…
Now he’s my mom and is competing in women’s oly lifting in TokyoThat was my dad.
So then... what are we? You and me?Now he’s my mom and is competing in women’s oly lifting in Tokyo
