Should we create a bench press chart, similar to the DL and Squat charts?

I definately think we should, its the most popular lift known to man!

I order someone to create this chart!

I've been thinking about this, and I don't know. Having a DL and squat chart is kind of our way of sending the message that the bench isn't really the king when it comes to measuring strenght. I hate it how everyone asks "how much ya' bench?" all the time, when it really should be "how much ya' pull" or "how much ya' squat?"

I know Kark i know..but thats the exact reason why we should have one because everyone likes to know how much we all bench.

I think we should!

whenever someone asks me how much I bench, my reply is asking them how much they dead.
it would actually be cooler to have a push press chart, as that's a way more "functional" way of pressing and is way cooler... but I don't think a lot of people here do push press

What do you mean by push press karky? I still think we should have one!

it's like a military press only you help a lot with your legs.
And if others want it then I'm all for. I just don't really have any strong opinion either way.

It seems every one here gets too defensive if someone asks how much they bench...I don't get it.

I don't mind being asked what I bench by someone who actually knows that there are other lifts than benching. But I hate it how people seem to think that the bench press is the best measure of strenght. You meet someone new and you both work out, the first thing they will ask you about is how much you bench. why? it's poison! People think benching is the all and all, and it's not.

The point is, people ask others how much they bench to measure their strenght and compare it to their own. If someone asks me for another reason than this, It's fine.

I agree to a certain extent, although i wouldnt use the word defensive.

I think we should have this chart! I should of done a poll.

Karky i know what your saying, but most people on here DO know that other lifts are important. Im just saying because its a popular lift we should do it.

I can't bench for ****, so I am indifferent.

yeah, that is true. But we should have a disclaimer at the beginning, so newbies who come to the site don't think we're all bench and nothing else

I vote for a Military Press chart.

What is this benching you speak of?

Its where you go around building benches for the local community.
