<P> Bench press world records are the international records in bench press across the years , regardless of weight class or governing organization , for bench pressing on the back without using a bridge technique . The advent of bench press shirts , which support the lifter 's shoulders and provide upward force , have increased records significantly since 1985 ( for example , when the shirted record was 438.64 kg ( 965 lb ) , the unshirted record was 323.41 kg ( 713 lb ) ) . As of 2018 , the world record bench press without a bench shirt is 335 kg kg ( 738.5 lb lb ) , set by Silvester Simple ( English ) in January 2018 . The recent junior bench press world record was broken by Remi Johnson from England , who lifted 140 kg . The women bench press record ( single lift ) belongs to Sandra Lönn from Sweden , who lifted 235.0 kg ( 517 lb ) and the women bench press record belongs to Hugdal Hildeborg from Norway , who lifted 227.0 kg ( 499.4 lb ) ( IPF standards ) . </P>
