when you take into effect the leverage from the positioning of the weights and the lever length and fulcrom. its probably half that amount of weight that is actually being pushed.
@mikper7 well look at him, he definately is not big. I guarantee he cant incline 345 by 11 reps free weight. I would say he might be able to do 225 a couple.
@zrx7769 Nope, dead wrong, I Hammer Incline 290 for 6 reps, and barbell incline 225 for 7 reps. Being this guy is doing 345 for 11 reps, and using a simple ratio, it's obvious he can Incline 265 for somewhere between 8-10 reps at least. Not 345, but not 225 for 2.
@mikper7 Since this is a second class (order) lever, effort force equals load force times distance of load force to fulcrum divided by distance of effort force to fulcrum. since the load force is about 70 percent down I would put it around 240 but then you take into consideration it is going up at an angle instead of up and down perpindicular to the floor therefore reducing the load even more. Its probably equivalent to 225 tops.
@itswhatido100 Since everything your saying is theoretical, and has absolutely nothing to do with empirical observation (eg, if you were to observe myself lifting, you would see someone who performs the movements I listed in the previous post for the stated number of reps), I say you're completely full of shit.
@mikper7 and i have an EXTREMELY hard time believing this guy could incline 265 for 11 reps (let alone flat bench 265 for 11) like you claim...complete bullshit.

@zrx7769 So your saying this person can likely only incline press 175 with free-weights? Doubtful.

NICE! 345x11 is a very good amount of weight for that machine.
