Why are the players allowed to cheat on reps during the Bench Press at the NFL Combine?
Almost every player I watch bounces the bar off their chest. If you don't know, when you bring the bar down and then bounce it off your chest, it makes it a lot easier to perform the rep (since you don't have to use your chest/tricep muscles to stop the bar from coming down and pushing it back up, the bounce does that for you). Bouncing the bar can make a significant difference; I wouldn't be surprised if some players do 3-5 fewer reps if they used proper form.
How much weight can the average football player bench press, curl, etc;?
At the scouting combine they measure how many reps a player can bench press with 225 lbs. I know almost every half back can at least get close to 20, some over 20. some of the really big offensive lineman can get around 40. The kickers can usually get 3 even though they are exempt from the exercise. Some of those kickers are a lot stronger than they look.
