I maxed out at 275 yesterday. Anyone that works out even somewhat regularly for half a year should be able to get 180. It's not a lot of weight at all.

So a 5'8" (average american height) person who weighs about 150 pounds and never worked out a day in his life should be able to bench 180 pounds in 6 months?

Your point is flawed. A person that size can at least do one pull up. That means he can lift his own weight. So 6 months of a good workout routine would put him around 180 on bench

yes

He's 6'4 and less than 200 pounds and has a legit 4 plate parallel squat? Theres no way he's that weak in other area's while carrying the core strength to squat that much.

This!

being 6'3 myself i know for a fact it is much harder for those of us over 6' to squat, we make up for it with core and upper body strength. If you are that height and under 190-200 you most likely rely on core strength but even still you should be able to at least bench your own weight...

These numbers just dont add up

this is a cruel joke!
