305 lbs x 10 reps Bench Press (at 205 lbs)

[nmatkovich]

great bench man! just scares me with that suicide grip and no spotter

[sicjohnxxx]

thats impressive man i got 305 x2 i had a injury deep cut in my arm right were it moves all the time by the pit so i had to recover from that a while but most i ever got was 320 for 1 ur doing 305 like its feathers nice job again

[ToxicZombie8606]

Dang! good stuff!

[BRETZERR]

Thanks bro - I appreciate that!

[sunielja23]

good shit man , im 15 and i can bang out 2 or 3 reps off 225 on a good day lol

[BRETZERR]

Thanks kid - I appreciate that. I finally hit 315 lbs (3 plates) x 10 reps a few weeks back. Slow and steady man...

Keep training hard and you'll be surprised how strong you can get.

[sunielja23]

yea by the end of this year im gonna be shooting for 3 plates for one rep

[BRETZERR]

Good luck - post the vid when you get there!

@BRETZERR suicide grip? what if it slips off ur hand

[BRETZERR]

@AndyAngelZ

A false-grip is used by many, many powerlifters/bodybuilders bro....it's just as safe as the normal thumbs-around grip. But thanks for the concern.

[cwg52grimm]

Doesn't that grip effect your wrist? Whenever I benched with that grip my wrist hurt so bad I couldn't curl at all. And how old are you? I'm 19 and weigh 205 and I could only bench 305 twice.

[BRETZERR]

No, not at all...I find it quite a bit more comfortable on my wrists than using a full grip. I am 32 and I have been using this grip for 20 years without any type of wrist pains.

305 lbs x 2 is a great bench for a 19 year old...keep at it bro.

[aceofdeath2]

sorry sets not reps

[aceofdeath2]

How many reps you do of 305? I ask because I think I am the same build as you. 6'2 200 lb 24ys . You play any running sports? I have a huge hamstring injury from the transition of lifting weights in the winter to running hard (soccer) in the spring/summer. I seem to be pulling my hamstring almost every game. The other problem is I can't gain anymore weight in the summer due to so much running. Anyways hit me back with ur thoughts

[BRETZERR]

I am 5'10" and 205 lbs. Sometimes I do two sets of the same weight as my workset and other times it's one (sometimes 3). It varies all the time...

[jamesrick2007]

damn dude how do you get strong like that.? can barely do a shitty 295 for 4

[BRETZERR]

Nothing wrong with 295 for 4 reps bro...keep at it and you'll get there.

Thanks!

[dvsn23]

wow thumbs out that's ballzeeeeeee, nice bench

[BRETZERR]

Thanks man...false grip is just the way I have always benched. Just feels better to me (grew up training more like a bodybuilder, rather than a powerlifter).

[dario2004]

Thats amazing strong bench Randy with 305 for 10 all i can say is WOW, i see the 400 pounds there easy

[BRETZERR]

Thanks Dario...I hope 400 lbs is coming soon...

[unkalledfor]

love your videos man.. they really motivate me to get up there in weight

Go Big or Go Home!

Keep making these man!

[BRETZERR]

Great comment - thanks a lot! I really appreciate that...

[WreckingCage]

nice man, i think the timeing was perfect cuase it was clean the whole time

[BRETZERR]

Thanks - I appreciate that.

[otk8963]

As always very impressive Randy... congrats Buddy!!! 315 x 10 here you come.

[BRETZERR]

Thanks Andrew...I hope so!

[DrewGymRat]

broke that man now just 315 x 10

[BRETZERR]

Thanks bro...next is 310 lbs x 10 and then on to 3 plates...

[HHH396]

Great set Randy! That's my best set of 10.

[BRETZERR]

Thanks Mark...hopefully this tricks my mind into 3 plates for 10 in the next couple of weeks. Next workout will be 310 lbs x 10 if all goes well...

[relliklaires]

fucking AWESOME!!!!! please tell me how you train eat and sleep! Seriously! I want to do that too! good luck with your next step, I bet you can already press 3 plates for a few reps.

[BRETZERR]

Ha, ha, ha...thanks man...I appreciate that comment. I don't do much special...I just eat normal meals and try to get as much rest as possible (i.e. I am pretty lazy!).

I have done 3 plates (i.e. 315 lbs) for 8 reps, but my goal is to hit 10 reps.

You should check out Westside Barbell's website as they have tons of training articles that you could learn from. That's what I have been doing...

Thanks again for the comment.
