Default Re: Prop bet - 5 minute mile

And thinking about this more how f'n hard it was and how it felt (to me) like I was freaking sprinting the whole time, I don't think an average (anyone who is not a very good athlete) can do a sub 5 minute mile even with 7 months of training. They just won't have the physical ability to.

Question: in terms of bench pressing. What would a 5 minute mile=in bench press?

2nd way to ask the question: What % of people can run a 5 minute mile compared to what % can bench press x lbs?

My 1st guess would be 400 lbs. Maybe more, but not less.
