Is it possible to add 50lbs in one month to your bench? Seen an article that said if you did their workout you could put on 50lbs to your bench in just one month....
Thoughts?

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
50+ To Bench in Month?

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
If you can hit me up with your secrets. Cuz thats an increase of 10 pounds per week even if its a 4 week month that would be an increase of 40 pounds, thats still gonna be alot to chew on. But hey I could be wrong can someone correct me if I am? But then again there are crazy noob gains...

It's possible. The only case I can think of is if you have a super solid base then take a month or two off. Then when you start again you can get built back up pretty quick (speaking from experience.)
Or else if you've never trained before and are a weak bastard with a lot of muscle fiber (I've seen guys go from 155 to 205 within several weeks.)
But I'd be HAPPY if I could add 50 by Thanksgiving!!!! (without roids)

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I have to apologize it actually says 45lbs not 50.
here is the joust of what they are saying to gain that much of an increase.
Not everyone will get that gain, and you have to have a very sound diet w/Nitro Tech.
No breaks in your workouts and no weak days.
The workout. HEAVY!
Heavy Bench Press:
2 Warm up sets x 10 to 12 reps *warm-up*
1 Workout set x 6 to 8 reps *absolute muscle failure*
1 Drop set x 12 to 15 reps *explosively*
Incline dumbbell Press:
3 Sets x 8 to 10 reps
Low Cable Cross-overs:
3 Sets x 8 to 10 reps
Dips:
3 Sets x 8 to 12 reps *if you can do more use weight belt.
I use Cell Tech and Nitro Tech so I am going to give it a shot....After my 12 weeks. I will post a log. Seems kinda low but if the weight is big and I got a spotter I think it may at least be a good break from the norm.
If anybody tries it before me (I have 10 more weeks left on current routine) PLEASE post journel.
I would love to jump my Bench up 45lbs. Always been the one I wanted to boost. (King Kong Chest!!!)

Hahaha that's not a very good traning regime.
Drop sets and training to failure on a regular basis will have you overtraining RAPIDLY.
Just focus on adding weight to the bar in small yet consistent manner. Buy micro plates and you can add 1kg to the bar each week and you should be able to increase your bench in a safe and manageable way very quickly.

you'll get more mileage out of squats & deadlifts in the long run, though your bench press numbers may not go up as quickly as you are drawn to. take a step back and consider your goals. why do you want to add 50 lbs. of lifting capacity to your chest? you can probably do that mostly through neuromuscular adaptation rather than increases in muscle mass (hypertrophy). I assume you're interested in adding mass rather than neuromuscular adaptation, though I could be wrong. read a-unit's sticky http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?t=98203 if you haven't already.

I'm happy if I put on about 5lbs a week. It's POSSIBLE to put on 50 in a month, but I'm going to guess it's not very realistic.

Hey, if you eat enough, you could easily gain 45 lbs, but thats a **** load of food. Probably not a very good idea either.

I started working out again back in july (bodybuilding) but these past couple weeks I've changed my training to focus more on strength. I do 3 sets of 5 reps for everything including bench. There's been a few times where I've been able to add 10 lbs in one workout (I do bench on tuesdays and saturdays). On wednesday I added another 10 pounds to my bench in one day (just wanted to see if I could). So in short it could be possible but maybe I'm just not adapted to training for strength yet and that could be why I have quick gains. BTW, I don't do one rep max's they tend to frustrate me more than anything. I don't know if this is important or not but I also bench with a close grip.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
In high school when I was seriously involved with weightlifting for the sake of strength, I increased my bench weight from 205 to 300 lbs. in a matter of minutes to compete with another guy.
The following weeks I started lifting heavy, up to 280 lbs. on bench and 800 lbs. on squat. Then again, prior to the increase I was probably lifting far below my capacity due to being grouped with thin and lanky weightlifting partners.
Damn, I need to get my fat ass back into a gym. I miss that excitement!
Edit: Oh my god, I miss that excitement. I'm getting a membership as soon as I get back from this weekend's series of parties.

That's some serious weight dude.
It helps to be crazy. I miss those mornings of physical education with two girls wrapped in my arms, at the waist... That's always a good way to start the routine. I remember during lifting the class usually had music playing. I'd sing aloud to whatever was playing. The guys around me were clearly annoyed, my friends were embarassed, but I owned the attention of the girls during that class.donjuanjovi said:800lbs

These days I just hang out with adult entertainment entrepreneurs and hookers. But back then I felt like a king. *sigh*
