@@Mukation yea but everyone is different and it highly depends on body weight. Someone thats 130 with no lifting experience is definitely not hitting 225 in 8 months. Someone thats 260 pounds with no lifting experience should be able to lift it in way less than 8 months
@Alexander and how much weight might that be? You realize that the normal untrained person at 130 would probably be benching not even 100 to start out with right? It is pretty absurd to assume you can gain that fast.

@@justinspires4131bro, he doesn't look natty. Noob. 225 for a max for lifetime natural outliers is of course not great. But for the average guy it's a good lift. I have benched 225x33 reps as a 20 year old lifetime natural and although I was bigger than this kid, I didn't look like him in the arms when sitting relaxed. Low dose PEDs will enhance your physique to a significant degree visually in areas you otherwise would never be able to refine. He is blasting steroids and isn't abusing but he is experimenting with SARMS or some other anabolic compound. You can just tell the way his arms look. If he was a lifetime natural having that exact physique with that level of leaness, he would be a 1 in a million and likely would be popping 315x10 reps to have that kind of build without ever taking any peds. There are truly millions upon millions of guys who look like absolute dogshit under the youtube lense , who are lifetime naturals, who are stronger than this guy. But, it's his physique that's talking in the video, not the lift. He's a bit young and thinks there's a formula that would have a near 100% success rate to get stronger , however, those who aren't benching 225 after lifting for a few years are naturally on the lower end regarding how strong they are. Everyone is different. Some guys bench 225 fist time they ever lift, some take a decade to get there. You can get stronger but lifting the same weight to absolute failure which over time would increase number of reps performed as a natty.
@RllyBoredRnNGL if your avarage genetcis and a male you should be gettign 225 in under a year trianing. 8-12 month usually the sweet spot. I got mine a bit later at 14 but had so many injuiries thats why
I mean this is probably the reason: "Really???!!!!! Then if i can lift 5lbs for 200 reps then I could lift 1000lbs for a rep. Holly dude ima compete for world strongest man."
But I honestly can't improve the numbers of reps I can do with a given weight, even if I do more sets of it. I really get to a point where I'm clueless even if I get to failure, I think the problem might be that I'm trying to get more than 15+ reps and I should strive for 5 max, but I work out at home and I just have that much weights to work with.
You missed the point entirely lol, no matter how consistent or hard worker you are if you are dumb you won’t get that much results, that’s why most people think that body builders are stupid you should always train smart and then stick to it and do it harder each session
Yeah but it's appreciated in a world where so many will over complicate it. Number of reps, lifting form, weight amounts, training to failure or not etc. Sometimes it's nice to be told not to worry about all those details
Started benching 95 pounds in high school and took me years to hit 225. My all time max was 245 and I’m proud of that. Different genetics and lifestyles play a major factor. So never let anyone put you down on your lifting journey Kings, it’s a self made path not someone else’s.
@@nafismaxwell7787 this is coming for kinesiology. Heard this a million times in anatomy of motion. He literally explained a form of progressive overload. Just coined it as a secret of his for some reason
@@nafismaxwell7787 progressive overload is the best in my opinion but when i use to hit the gym i skipped all that fancy knowledge and just lifted with my ego with the best proper form possible and wasnt scared of failure weights falling on me or ppl looking at me fail i got stronger real quick and bigger, also eating about 200g protein, 250g carbs, 50g fat daily no supplements just multis and coffee
To anyone watching: don't get discouraged if you've been lifting for 8 months and can't bench 225. Everyone has different genetics, for some people it will just take longer. There's also a good chance that you didn't start doing everything right as soon as you started the gym. Putting a fixed timespan of '8 months to bench 225' is pretty simple-minded imo.
Also don’t forget that bodyweight plays a HUGE role. Someone weiging 200+ will definitely have a much easier time reaching a 225 bench in 8 months than someone at 150 or something
His method and time gauge is pretty solid in accuracy. I'm 15 and start properly working out at like February-March. My first time maxing out on bench, I attemped 115. I got 1 rep but failed the second rep. Fast forward to early May and I hit 175. In just around 3 months, I gained over 60lbs on my bench and I'm not even a fully grown man. I weigh around 124lbs.
It's dumb asf, I'm 5'4 150 lbs I usually walk around at 135-140 12%-15% body fat I bulked up to this number to bench 225 straying away from my normal hypertrophy program and running a bench specialization strength program. 225 is not easy is you have below average genetics and keep yourself lean(me) I hate assholes like this 🤷
Dude crushed his own argument, like “Ok guys don’t do stuff consistently and don’t work hard? Just make sure to make each workout harder many time :DDD”
His point is you don't have to go to the gym and do 500 pushups and 200 squats and 300 bench presses. If you go to the gym and lift 100lb 10 times. 2 days in a week then the next week 110lb 10times 2 days in a week. Then your working smart not hard
Progressive overload has always been the key to getting large and lifting heavy. Your body can't lift 100lb if you don't train your muscle to know that you need to lift 100lb.
@@Vsp712 it’s a direct contradiction of what he said, you wanna improve volume you have to be consistent and work hard, the whole point is he’s restating a obvious thing in a poor way
@@ChiefChar I don't think lifting a couple heavy weights is working hard? You can lift 5lb increments every week from your max and gain a lot of volume and strength. That's not working hard. Working hard is what you see on these fitness UA-camrs which is jumping in the gym 2 hours a day 3-5 times a week destroying your body. Those people do it for sport.
Legit just every chest day add 2.5kg or even 1kg each side on bench instead of paying 60 a week for some program that’s gonna make you do the same thing 😂
Sadly this video has 137k likes so theres a lot of ppl buying this shit. Probably "sigmas" and "personal growth" ppl who think they have to be better than anyone.
@@ABeautifulEarthForOurChildrenI got you , what he said it you don’t need to be consistent or work hard for gains.. all you need to do is be consistent and work hard for gains.
Bruh... its kinda simple stupid dumbified math. He said increase in some way either sets, reps, or weights over time.. for me ill go lower in reps and higher in weight and less sets, then I drop the weight and do more reps for the remaining sets of a benchpress. This has allowed me to increase ten pounds a week of weight on EVERY workout. I'm at 175 Lb bench so far.. remember to eat enough protein.
Anytime someone says you need to reach X goal in Y time they're full of sh*t. Everyone is on their own path and has different goals. Just make sure you know yours and that you keep working towards them.
I don’t disagree but I think people underestimate themselves in the gym. I saw something a while back that with minimal training and confidence you can grow to 300lb squat and 225 bench. Ex: 5x5 @ 95 lbs then add 10 lbs each session. Same for squats but in 20lb increments
@@kebub1 he’s doing something wrong then. It takes commitment and planning. But I coached up a girl I work with to squat 185 (previously was squatting 95) in 3 weeks. It’s more than just lifting the weights.
You never seen the guys that have been there for years and still look the same year after year? i think this is what he assoicates the word consistently with.
@@jordanJohnn depends on diet and what their goals are. No I've never seen anyone in the gym that wanted to get big stay small that ate the right diet and was constant. Unless they're super thin then they get as big as their body can get but can still get big for a skinny person.
@Justen Hearn point being consistently isn't the only part of the recipe, mate. 90% of people I see at the gym have looked the same for years. it's not enough to just show up. Diet, programming & intensity play just as big of a role. You're making my point for me.
Consistency is necessary but not sufficient alone. The best program once a month isn’t gonna get you any gains. “It’s not just about consistency” would be a fair statement. “It’s not about consistency” isn’t a good statement though
It's kinda common sense. You can't grow stronger if you're doing stuff at the same level. You have to continually push yourself and test yourself so you're not on easy mode.
@@mightymanlap it's not just reps, but sets and weight that need to be modified. Most people don't track their volume and thus train year round for minimal gains.
@@mr_knowitall ohh absolutely couldn't agree more. The idea is to incrementally change the number depending on your progress without hurting yourself. Consistent and manageable gains.
I'm really excited to be benching 100lbs. Took me years. Was stuck at 70lbs for a long time. I'm 35 with pretty serious issues, neck and back injury, decade+ sedentary living.
And you can be proud of yourself for not giving up, and staying disciplined despite the issues you had. Dont listen to these dumbass wannabe creators throwing numbers into the room, its always you vs your past self, thats the only thing that matters
Yeah I’m not gonna lie this guy makes me feel like garbage, but that isn’t gonna stop the way I train because I’m making really steady progress in the gym and in real life without feeling burnt out. I eat consistently 180 grams of protein, my lifts are increasing gradually and my max bench is only 185 for one rep. And that was on a good day. I haven’t done a 1 rep max in a while (5 months) but I’d say I could probably do 190 or 195 but that isn’t my goal right now. I think the fact that people like this set benchmarks for others and belittle their achievements is honestly sad. I’m proud of the work he’s put into reaching his goals, but my original goal wasn’t even getting my bench up, it was to hit a 315 squat and 315 deadlift. Anyways, you keep doing you man, set realistic goals and MAKE PLANS for those goals. Atomic Habits taught me that if you make plans for goals you’re more likely to follow through on them :) super proud of you bro
@@Reliztik82 that’s a good mentality to have, there will always be a bigger fish and people always set higher standards when they raise the bar for themselves. Whatever a decent 100m dash is for the general population is probably a speed that Olympic sprinters would say is 3rd grade level or something stupid lol. I was stuck on 225 bench for years and then I put my head in the game and stayed consistent and pushed to 250, we all got this broski
Bro just stated the absolute basics of weight lifting and was thinking he sounded like a genius. Kings, don't let stupid youtubers bring you down, it doesn't matter if you can't lift 2 plates, what matters is that you do your best
Guys look at my physique and think I can bench 300 lbs or something but in reality I don't even do bench press at all. It hurts my shoulders and my chest is big enough already.
Works like magic. How do you think Julius madox broke the bench world record? By lifting heavy? Cammon, we all know he uses nothing but the bar and do in none stop for a full day😂😂
@@timothybooker5168there really isn’t in this instance since they both will come from just working out. If your muscles are bigger you are stronger you can get stronger without getting bigger but there both going to happen in this instance

If you've been lifting for 8 months and you still haven't reached your goal, it's totally fine. Do not compare yourself to others. Keep lifting and don't give up.
Anybody who doesn't understand the importance of consistency to strength building, just doesn't understand strength properly. Consistency is the foundation.
@@nasusmedicado7792 Do depth with just a bar and gradually increase the weight overtime. You’ll feel like a bitch because well, you are for only doing upper body and never doing legs, but, you’ll eventually build up the muscle to hit depth with larger amounts of weight.
I've been lifting weights for just a little over 3 years and finally hit 225 a few weeks ago and I'm 36. I've been grinding these past years and making sure I'm always progressive overloading, but this is coming from someone who started lifting at 138lbs and couldn't even bench the bar... I'm now 168lbs. I've also hit some hiatuses from Covid, back injury at work, and other health issues that have set me back close to 6 months collectively and have made me drop significantly in weight. So yeah, not everyone is as lucky as you bro. 8 months maybe in a perfect world.
Good for you man everybody has different genetics in a different starting point… Being 138 you have very little leverage and aren’t walking around carrying a lot of extra weight so it’s going to take you longer to move iron in the gym. 225 bench at 168 is respectable. Don’t let anyone make you feel otherwise.
Been working out for a year can bench 215 which I’m very proud of. Just be consistent and do the hard work it’s ok if you can’t bench 225 that doesn’t make you a weaker person.
Exactly, I think I'd have to only focus on bench to get to 225 in a year. I've lifted a bit more than a year, and it's 165, at 150lbs. When I started though, 95lbs was very heavy for me, and I was 130lbs.
Ive been training for 1 year and 9 months consistent (over 300 visits ). I began at 73kg wich is like idk 160 lbs i am now 67 kg wich is 145 lbs and my bench is 75 kg wich is more than my bodyweight but only 165 lbs. I'm getting depressed seeing my progress being this slow
Depends on your starting point too. When i started lifting i was 98 lbs and now after a year im 136 lbs. There is no way im benching 225 at this bodyweight.
Bro is speaking facts. Ridiculous message to just throw out random numbers as gospel. A 225 bench for someone who is 150 is a monster bench compared to someone who is 220 benching 225. Context matters.
@@Jacob-zn6ov I know it isn’t man. I have trouble with that myself. It just takes personal reminders. I’m in my head a lot so it’s easy to doubt myself, but I still manage to believe in myself. I KNOW it isn’t easy.
This type of bro is the one who says “it’s never about diet or how much you work out when it comes to losing weight it’s all about having faith in yourself”
I have been working out for about 5 months when I started my max on Bench was about 85-95lbs but now about a 2 weeks ago I finally got 135lbs I’m. Pretty proud, I’m 14 6ft and 145lbs
Good job man! The only reason this guy thinks it’s normal to bench 2 plates after only 8 months of training is because he gained like 50 pounds. I’ve been working out for about 7 months and my max went from 110lbs to 165lbs, I went from 145lbs to 160lbs but now im trying to maintain a stable weight. In other words, you’re doing pretty good, and similar to me. I remember the day I hit 135lbs for the first time, and I was proud as hell too
Talks like lifting is easy ✅️ Insults you to make you angry and want to change ✅️ Claims to make you hit a hard benchmark in 8 months ✅️ "I just told you what no one will tell you" ✅️ "I have a program where I've already done all of the work for you" ✅️ Sounds like you're just trying to gaslight vulnerable and insecure men to buy a program, not like you're trying to help them
Me finally hitting 225 for 5 after like 4 years. Everyone takes their time getting wherever they go. Considering I work 80-90 hours a week and still have a social life I'm pretty happy with my progression
Reminder that genetics and training plus diet variables contribute to strength but also recovery. I'm 16 and within 8 months I could bench 70kg starting from the bar when I first trained. I'm 60kg in bodyweight however i took my diet to a lean bulk and trained 6 days a week. You have to understand that everyone will progress differently due to their genetics and their life style. You cannot define a certain benchmark for the entire population when everyone has different cards at play.
Benching a clean 225 (not bouncing off the chest) is quite respectable, and I have seen few people achieve this quickly. Eight months is possible if you're already at 185 and/or are juicing. If you're just starting out, good luck with that. Also remember that your connective tissue does not thicken as quickly as your muscles. Fast gains put you at risk for injury.
225 is definitely doable in 8 months without gear lol. If you train specifically for strength you can probably get it done in a lot less time. That being said nobody knows what they’re doing for the first few months even years of training so that’s why it takes people a long time.
Depends on a bunch of things, but with good genetics or just getting back in the gym after being out due to injury or something, 225 is an easy get. Was out of the gym for 2 years due to shoulder injury, and went from benching 95 for 10 to 205 for 10 in about 8 months
As I get older (51 years), I have to think durability first and foremost. While I can bench around 300, I have to think of how I can sustain myself long run.
I've been lifting consistently nearly 8 years - I'm 6ft, 190lbs, have 16.5inch arms and look better than 90% of guys in the gym. I don't bench 225 for reps! Don't put yourself down if you can't - focus on good form and consistency :)
It’s cool to hear vulnerability. Someone benching 225 only lifting for 8 months? Uhhhhhh most people, even fairly regular gym goers, don’t even hit 225 in their whole life. I’m a bit smaller than you and I have been working out for 12 years. I “only” conventional deadlift 335x6 and squat 295x5 with controlled form. And I don’t even bench over 200 for reps. I am not AT ALL genetically gifted as I came from an extremely small frame. Every time my bench strength starts getting somewhere, I get some stupid shoulder or chest injury then I have to back off. I’ve kind of accepted the fact that my bench is always going to kind of suck lol I’ve been taking a more bodybuilding approach to build up my physique lately.
@@Shortay1325 sorry to say that bro, but in you are suffering fron injuries it seems you lift way too heavy with a bad technique or you lift way too often
@@gronkhfp It’s really odd though because I’m not going over 2x per muscle group per week and I space all my stuff out enough that I shouldn’t be overtraining. Perhaps benching on Mon & Fri plus doing incline bench and barbell OHP on Wednesday could be a bit too much on my pressing joints. Still weird though because I am only benching heavy one time and then my other bench day is lighter with 10-12 reps. Same goes for incline bench and OHP. I don’t go insanely heavy on those either. Incline bench 3 sets of 8ish reps and then OHP 3 sets for 6-8 reps. All are pretty dang good form as I’ve really been focusing on form for the past few years. Not fully sure what’s going on so I might just cut out strength training for a while and just do more reps for size. See how it goes on my joints
@@Shortay1325exactly what i had to do, i dont barbell bench anymore, dont deadlift, and i went like a year without barbell squating. the physique still looks great ive just got weaker as far as strength but my joints are better than ever

To anyone watching: don't get discouraged if you've been lifting for 8 months and can't bench 225. Everyone has different genetics, for some people it will just take longer. There's also a good chance that you didn't start doing everything right as soon as you started the gym. Putting a fixed timespan of '8 months to bench 225' is pretty simple-minded imo.
I’m sure most ppl here cannot bench 225 after 8 months.

@Evan he said it to trigger people, to get engagement, and to sell a program...
Also don’t forget that bodyweight plays a HUGE role.
Someone weiging 200+ will definitely have a much easier time reaching a 225 bench in 8 months than someone at 150 or something

Dude expects average people to bench 225 in only 8 months
😂😂 he doesn’t. It’s just a marketing strategy to get people feeling like if they can’t, they should buy his product. 🧠
I mean if you’re hitting that specific workout right and consistently, yes it can be done
Yeah no shit should be possible
His method and time gauge is pretty solid in accuracy. I'm 15 and start properly working out at like February-March. My first time maxing out on bench, I attemped 115. I got 1 rep but failed the second rep. Fast forward to early May and I hit 175. In just around 3 months, I gained over 60lbs on my bench and I'm not even a fully grown man. I weigh around 124lbs.
It's dumb asf, I'm 5'4 150 lbs I usually walk around at 135-140 12%-15% body fat I bulked up to this number to bench 225 straying away from my normal hypertrophy program and running a bench specialization strength program. 225 is not easy is you have below average genetics and keep yourself lean(me) I hate assholes like this 🤷
To bench 225 in 8 months is insane, benching 225 is no joke
I went from 50 to 225lbs in 6months since I tried his secret formula 🙄🙄🧢🧢
@ItzGrizzly Gaming only 2 percent of the worlds population can do it. So yes. It’s pretty insane.
For the average person its not happening. Took me a year and a half to two years to get 225 for a rep its no joke...
I did it in 7.5 months. But my genetics are definitely better than most.

His point is you don't have to go to the gym and do 500 pushups and 200 squats and 300 bench presses. If you go to the gym and lift 100lb 10 times. 2 days in a week then the next week 110lb 10times 2 days in a week. Then your working smart not hard
Progressive overload has always been the key to getting large and lifting heavy. Your body can't lift 100lb if you don't train your muscle to know that you need to lift 100lb.
@@Vsp712 it’s a direct contradiction of what he said, you wanna improve volume you have to be consistent and work hard, the whole point is he’s restating a obvious thing in a poor way
@@ChiefChar I don't think lifting a couple heavy weights is working hard? You can lift 5lb increments every week from your max and gain a lot of volume and strength. That's not working hard.

@Justen Hearn point being consistently isn't the only part of the recipe, mate. 90% of people I see at the gym have looked the same for years. it's not enough to just show up. Diet, programming & intensity play just as big of a role. You're making my point for me.

Benching a clean 225 (not bouncing off the chest) is quite respectable, and I have seen few people achieve this quickly. Eight months is possible if you're already at 185 and/or are juicing. If you're just starting out, good luck with that. Also remember that your connective tissue does not thicken as quickly as your muscles. Fast gains put you at risk for injury.
225 is definitely doable in 8 months without gear lol. If you train specifically for strength you can probably get it done in a lot less time. That being said nobody knows what they’re doing for the first few months even years of training so that’s why it takes people a long time.
i started at 190lbs bench when i was 120lbs, its very genetic based too
My friend, Jax (Tyler), is 5'6" 150 lbs and he could bench 300 lbs.
Depends on a bunch of things, but with good genetics or just getting back in the gym after being out due to injury or something, 225 is an easy get. Was out of the gym for 2 years due to shoulder injury, and went from benching 95 for 10 to 205 for 10 in about 8 months

Perhaps benching on Mon & Fri plus doing incline bench and barbell OHP on Wednesday could be a bit too much on my pressing joints. Still weird though because I am only benching heavy one time and then my other bench day is lighter with 10-12 reps. Same goes for incline bench and OHP. I don’t go insanely heavy on those either. Incline bench 3 sets of 8ish reps and then OHP 3 sets for 6-8 reps. All are pretty dang good form as I’ve really been focusing on form for the past few years. Not fully sure what’s going on so I might just cut out strength training for a while and just do more reps for size. See how it goes on my joints
@@Shortay1325exactly what i had to do, i dont barbell bench anymore, dont deadlift, and i went like a year without barbell squating. the physique still looks great ive just got weaker as far as strength but my joints are better than ever
@@Shortay1325Bench twice a week
4 days between sessions
Work in the 6-8 rep range and keep the volume low
Add more carbs to diet and make sure you’re sleeping 8 hours at least
This is amazing! It’s like he makes the weight heavier every session! I wonder if it has a name? It’s like he’s progressively overloading his muscles, maybe it’s called gradual difficulty increase!
Bro take that one to the marketing department.
This was actually super beneficial, i try to progressively overload every week on my all lifts but of course it can’t always be made possible but with this formula I can always find a way to increase my volume thank you man
It’s also not about what weight you can lift. It is about slowly becoming better and making improvements.
Ye that’s nice but then again, it’s about how much weight u r lifting
@@eliasto_ 🥱
Hell yea now that i know i dont have to be consistent or work hard im gonna be huuugeeee thanks man with great info like this idk how you dont have more people buying your program!
"It's not about consistency, it's not even about how hard you work" You right, it's about steroids
Took the words right out of my mouth😅😂
NONO, You've got it all wrong. It's chicken, rice and broccoli.
Steroids? You must be a lazy person
I’m natural, but steroids will work great too, yes.
@@DylanMcKnight speaking from experience hmm?
Damn, Ned Bigby got swole. Proud of you, bro. Nice to know middle school didn’t affect you too much.
