How much are you guys benching + your weight

[arem]

dumbbell > machines.. by a lot

db press should be your first one exercise out of those.. you should end with machines if you use them at all

Yeah, I know free weights are better, but I squeeze my workout into my lunch hour, and I can get a bit more done in my limited time if I use machines. Lame excuse I know, but I'm not trying really to gain much muscle anyway, I weight train and do cardio to lose weight. I've lost about 35 pounds since May, still looking to lose another 10 or so.

why would it take you longer to use dumbbells as opposed to machines? :confused:

My weight fluxuates around 135-145 and max is 1 rep of a 180

I normally do 120's and I can do about 10 - 12 of those

something seems terribly off about those numbers..

max of 180 on bb and 10-12 reps for 120's on db?

either your max for bb should be way higher.. or you aren't stretching down far enough on your negatives during db presses

Yeah I brought it up af few times in the blacklist but he just trash talked me and ignored my PMs. My biggest mistake was not opening up the dispute because I trusted him and it eventually passed the date where I could open one. Thanks
