To give you some idea of what some of the best ever raw-benchers can do:
-Jeremy Hoornstra, benched 615raw in the 242 weight-class (has done 700 raw touch and go in the gym and is one goddamn benchmonster when it comes to strength vs. bodyweight ratio…)
-Scott Mendelson has raw-benched 715lb in the superheavies and I think it was 700 in the 308 lb class
I have no idea what the equipped bench records are, I think Kenelly has done 1100 or something equally crazy in the superheavies?
Stronghold, Detty or Buckeye would probably know.

You mean the 6003 that could, apparently, have been 6008+ just as well?
Yeah, I’m waiting for his 850lb raw bench press vid
Maybe he’ll need 2 kids to spot him this time instead of just one (Can’t take unnecessary risks now, can we?).

did you check out the thread over at MD where they called him out? There were all kinds of big names coming out offering him thousands of dollars to bench at a comp. suprisingly he stopped posting.
moral to the story- if you’re going to us fake plates, make it at least somewhat believable.

maraudermeat: is that you in the pic? How much is that? looks pretty damn heavy!!
of course that’s me…
it’s 605… and these 45’s all weigh 45lbs:) I don’t believe you, that would require at least 2 kids as spotters
Still some damned heavy weight on there, but not 800 lbs.[/quote]
i’ve seen the suited 800lb back squat and the 585lb front squat… i thought there was a vid out there of him doing a 800lb front squat that i haven’t seen. that would be pretty bad ass.

lol marauder I can’t believe that aerobic step up thing didn’t snap in half when you sat on it with all that weight.[/quote]
i stack plates under it in the middle where it would have the possiblities to cave in. i guess it’s made to handle fat ass house wives doing aerobics:)
