      Depends how many reps. Could do a set of 8 just over body weight 2 years ago. Not at the moment though as I have given up the gym since becoming a dad.

            I thought this would be a thread about people on the bench so being pressed together...

                Surely pressing your own bodyweight is easy (1 rep)? Try 2x bodyweight...

                  2.2 Kg to the lb so that makes it just less than 50kg

                    Never tried, but I can turn heads in a pair of lycra shorts.
