Default Re: bench press: more weight or more reps?

Actually you should do both. Mix it up. Your body is great at adapting to workouts, so high reps low weight for a few weeks to maximize fat burning. Then after 3 weeks or so start with the heavy weight low reps to build muscle. Your body will take longer to adapt which is good.
