*How Much Can You INCLINE DUMBBELL PRESS?*

[enrage]

NEW PR!
Got the 100's up for 6 reps. Woohooo. But i think the Fina, Cyp and Winny had something to do with helping me out. Will get the 110's next Week.

Yeah those guys are good spotters, they should help motivate you.

I'm on my barbell routine for right now but I did one set with 90lbs dumbells for 10 the other day and found it wasn't too bad since I didn't do flat right before.

I'm a scrawny bastard, around 180lbs, so I don't lift much heavier then the 100lbers for reps. Sometimes, if I start out with inclines, I'll go a bit heavier, like up to 105 or 110, but thats about it. Maybe I'll try and do the 120lbers today.

How long have you been lifting. See I have been lifting for 2 years and I am kind of older 37yrs old. So I am wondering I started when I was 35 is my progress ok doing the 70's(this is off cycle btw)? Or should I being doing more by now? And how long have you been lifting?

ive been lifting off and on since high school. im 26 right now. if you have been lifting for 2 years 70 pounds is really good. just stick with it. i personaally have never did a cycle. i was off for 9 months due to a shoulder injury but this is my 2nd month back and im getting my strength back. good luck

Thanks dude I was wondering if I was doing ok for the legnth of time I have been hitting it. I can workout with more weight on the barbell(165) but I have a hard time getting those db into position for incline presses.

I'm with you...I feel stronger with DB....I can DB incline 95lbs for 8-10, but sometimes I struggle with 225 for 5 on Flat BB.....WTF??

150's for 5-7 no gear involved

Hard to balance and get them damn things up

nice lift. what does that equate to with a barbell for inclines? 315?

Usually depends on current routine. on time under tension weeks, i am getting up to 55lbs for 1 min. on my work sets (3).
for heavy rep weeks, up to 90lbs for 6-8 reps on work sets (3).
