Big Bench Press Can Mean Bad Shoulders

[Go Away]

The best thing about it is that if you bolt it to a crappy commercial bench it ends up almost exactly at regulation height....

Does the Fat Pad mimic the width of competition benches? I was reading reviews and some folks said it was way too wide, others said it was perfect. I lift at a YMCA and their benches are fuxking wack. Too low, too skinny... at both meets I competed in, I had trouble getting an arch because I wasn't used to a nice bench! No bueno...

at what weight is it actually considered a BIG bench?

at what weight is it actually considered a BIG bench?

I would say 300 is an impressive bench.

400 is exceptional

500 is a small category to get in.

600 or more is elite.

Just my opinion though.

I just say I only use dumbbells and my gym only goes to 150. I like what's left of my joints.
