Question

Help answer this question below.

I weigh 130 lbs. and right now my max for bench press is 165 (1 to 3 reps). My football coach wants me to hit 180 in about 3 months and be able to do reps. Is this reasonable? (How) can I get stronger quicker?

    its called "shocking" your muscles, you have to mix it up. try incline for a week then do decline for a week, then do military for a week, then do say flat benches. by hitting the same muscle groups from different angles you ripping them in different places making them grow while actually givening the other part of that muscle time to rebuild. get a weider book that'll get you goin.

    • You should actually do all the different angles in the same workout.
