I would say depends on where your sticking point is really and what part of the ROM you want to hit.....5 board? jeez i wouldnt be able to hold the bar, how tall are you?

As Chris said, it depends. As a shirted bencher probably 2 boards and up. How you use them will depend on the program you're doing and/or your sticking point. The most effective use may be using the board just below your sticking point. With my range of motion I could probably do a 7 board no problem. :(

So are you planning to work through all the boards? Metal Militia does there work from highest to lowest number of boards. They work through low boards on one day and high ones on another.
