I've been lifting for about a year now and I take supplements. I weigh around 190. Around 15-20% bf. I have a perfect diet if u can believe. I don't get much sleep in the school year but I get 10-12 hours sleep in the summer. I started benching 55lbs max. I've always had a good build but not good strength on bench. I can deadlift 230 max. Squat 260lbs max. Shrug 350lbs max. Bench 150-160 max. I curl 110 max. I can do 80lbs tricep extension max. I feel that I'm not strong enough. Is there something wrong with me? For my size I feel I should do more considering the amount of muscle I have.
 
if u want your bench up, and this is what i do, there are a few ways you can approach this. and i do ALL of them ALL the time

1. Do LOTS and LOTS of upper chest. if you do 4 exercises for chest, make one of them flat bench, either BB or DB, and the rest Upper chest movements.

2. eat more on chest day.

3. change your sets/reps/routine for chest up constantly. hit all three muscle fibers in the span of either one workout or 3 weeks

4. switch from DB to BB every other week.
 
yeah, agree with the last poster. if you are doing all of those, then you obviously arent eating enough. 3 times a day of protein meals doesnt cut it. post your REAL diet and training on here. be honest cause if you arent honest, u are only hurting yourself. we wont make fun of you. everybody starts out at ground zero then builds up with proper knowledge
 
If you say that you have a perfect diet, then lets pretend that you do...
Then we need to start looking else where for the problem.. Tell us a bit more about HOW you train.. What rep range are you using ? What type of exercises?

If you haven't done 5x5 basic exercises I would recommend that you try it out.. i.e. Chest:

Benchpress 5x5
Dumbbellpress 5x5
Dips 5x5



Always try to make the next workout harder and more intense. Either add more weight or decrease the time between the sets..
