Hey. Ok heres my problem. I'm 6'4 with an arm span of 6+ feet. In high school i always gave the excuse that because i had long arms, it was harder for me to bench alot. However, i just figured it was because i was developed enough. But now i'm 19 and i'm lifting 4 times a week, chest being two of those days (mon and thurs). I do incline, regular, and decline bench and flys, and sometimes crossovers and pec deck machine, 3 or more sets of each. The same day i also do random tri workouts. I've gotten to the point where i'm wondering what is wrong with me. My buddy brags about how hes benchin 200 plus and hes no bigger than i am, however i'm stuck at around 145. Its actually kinda embarassing how kids in high school half my size are benchin more than what i can and i'm college. My pecs have definantly been getting bigger, however i'm not getting any strong and i have a big prob with that. I'm not trying to bench 300 lbs here, i just want to be able to say that i can bench 200 and not have to lie about it or use a max bench estimator to back up myself. So my question for you all is this: how can i achieve my goal. I'm not a pussy. I have so much drive when i go to the gym and i love a good work out, but when i start to bench and plateu at a lousy 145, it diminishes everything i have. Is there a way for me to get my chest stronger. Maybe more reps less weight or more weight less reps? I just don't know whats wrong with me, but i feel pathetic. Any help? please...:frustrate
