I have no idea what I could max at right now. My PR is 265 at a bodyweight of 170.

Since I hurt my back I haven't returned to my normal workout, so instead of bench I have been using




How does the weight translate? For example, if I am doing 230 lbs. in plates, what % of a flat bench press might that be. I know its not too important for now, but I'd like to know if I'm getting my strength back to where it was.

I would think 300 is doable for me right now. 295 at the very worst
