> 5'6" 135 lb male benching 225x5
> 6'6" 225 lb male benching 315x5

And why?
>>
The 6'6" guy because manlets just look silly when they try to be strong.
>>
The latter because real life doesn't have weight classes.
>>
>>41487354
315x5
>>
6'6" has 1.4 ratio, 5'6" 1.65

nonetheless, it's a press movement so the path has to be considered, 6'6" most likely has lanky arms which make pressing much harder compared to the 5'6" guy that will probably have a favourable length for pressing. Also, absolute strength is more important than relative strength, bodyweight ratios are a spook
>>
>>41487354
225x5 is never impressive, unless you're a woman.
>>
>>41487354
The bigger weight is more impressive. Also the taller guy is working with a larger range of motion, and also doesn't strength not linearly increase with bodyweight?
>>
>>41487354

>5'6''
>any possibility of being impressive

6'6" is impressive even if he can't bench the bar
>>
>>41488343
ayy lmao yep
>>
>>41488329
>>41488343
pls respond, I think there can only be a handful of those 5'10" 155 lbs asians that can bench 4 plate in the anglosphere
>>
>>41487354

The latter
>>
>>41487354
Neither. Bench is a pussy lift.
>>
>>41487354
225/135^2/3 = 8.55
315/225^2/3 = 8.52

135lbs guy benching 225 is marginally more impressive.
>>
6'6" 225 lb male benching 315x5 because he's benching more
>>
>>41487422
Speak for yourself powercuck. 225x5 will blow the socks off normies.
>>
>>41488343
this guy would be 180lb if his body was proportional, instead he's deformed and all his weight is on arms and chest.
>>

Gee, I dunno.

Pretty much this

I'm a 6'4 lanklet was nervous about my forearm so asked a pl strongfat to spot me. hit 225x6 @190lbs and dude was blown away.
>>
>>41488862
>humbleboasting
Lanklets are the worst
>>
>>41487354

The second one, because it's more weight. Nobody cares about relative bodyweight, height, etc.
>>
>>41488958
keep talking, manlet
>>
>>41488385
Love that little Phlip. Has he ever done a video on his squat?

As for op, the one who lifts more weight.
>>
>>41487417
Autism, the Post.
>>
>>41487354
a 5'6 male will never be impressive
>>
>>41487354
6'6 male because his greater wingspan will make bench pressing more of a bitch due to a higher requirement for a full ROM.

t. 6'5 male with a nearly 7'0 wingspan
