re: Bench press results from combine - Update to include info (so shut it)

Anybody can do a max one time, but what the bench press tells the pro scouts is how often the athlete frequented his college weight room for the last 3-5 years.

People always say that there are some people who are better at doing maxes rather than 10 reps, but I've never met one.

Everyone I've ever known fell between a very narrow range--basically, what you can do with 10 reps almost completely determines what you can do with a max rep (provided that you don't cheat). Lazy or not lazy. Fat or not fat. In good cardio shape or not in good cardio shape. It's all the same.
