Can you bench 405 naturally?

If you want to bench 225, 315 or 405, you probably won't get there by missing that weight over and over again week in and week out. You'll get it by spending a lot of time, effort, sets and reps with a lot less weight. If your goal is 300 or 315, you'll likely need to spend a lot of time benching in the 200's.
