I'm currently at 100lbs for 5 sets of 3 reps (it's very hard for me!) and I bench press 2-3x a week. I've been slow to progress at benching, though, and I've been stuck around 100lbs for about two weeks. I'm pretty good at hitting 100g of protein a day and take creatine. Will provide biweekly updates.

@SydneyF good luck next market! Eat rest and train.

I benched 100lbs for 4 sets of 3 today.

technique changes alone (packing your scapula, really pinning them into the bench, and getting set into optimal-leverage arched back form) might add 5-15 pounds to your bench. assuming this isn't something you're already doing https://youtu.be/enRx1X7dQRI?t=158

@brubsby already doing that. thanks for the good advice though!
