    It's alright Wanderlei, no prob and ye it is out of the ordinary which is why I asked here, since I always see pretty average looking guys bust out 180 lbs + no prob. For my form, I'm pretty sure I do it right, but I'm gonna get an outside opinion on that now for sure. I usually bench Mon/Wed/Fri which is when I do all my weight work.

              Are you heavy squatting and deadlifting?

              They are far more important than any amount of benching!

                I agree. Bench is more an ego lift anyway. I actually prefer Deads out of the three lifts.
