Since I work out by myself...I don't go too far...I have no one to spot me.

Age: 35
Height: 6.2
Weight: 240 (could stand to lose about 10 but I'm still fit)
Max bench: 240 * 8 (3 sets)

If I can't do 8 and 3 then I won't go higher...it's a standard I've set for myself.
And they have to be done smooth and safe,
with a nice press...and a good slow negative rep.
Otherwise, I think it's cheating...just explosive power.

Also, I usually will continue with series of inclines and reverse inclines after a normal bench.
So, I guess I need to get someone to help me try out a true MAX,
but I don't know...it's not part of my normal routine.
