finally a height and weight, to match i only need to add another 90lbs bodyweight, and only about 400lbs to my bench! still an awesome bench press. and x2 on what cephalic carnage said.
Bump!
What a bench press! Looking forwards to reading more, thanks for the video.
Slightly disheartening to see someone bench more than I can dead lift but thats life 
Havenāt only 33 or 34 people in the world benched 600+ raw in competition?
OP, press that shit in a comp ASAP man. You could get injured tomorrow or something and never have that lift go down in comp. Iām sure youāll be fine but still, I would want to hit 600 in a comp and be on of the 30 something guys whoāve ever done that as soon as humanly possible, if I were in your position.
WOW!!! that was awesome man! keep it up man!
You made that looking stupid easy. Wow.

As far as my light dayās I still do same basic movements for example back I always do a minimum of one row movement one pull up exercise and one reverse fly. Rep range on light days 10-15 range some sets I even go as high as 25. I Have a rotation of a group of exercises I like and based on how I feel or whats available I just do it. I go to the gym with a general idea of what I want to do but based on how I feel I will change reps,weights,exercises. When its heavy chest day I pyramid up, when I get to 495 if it feels heavy I might not go heavier for that day. I think its my body telling me to back off. I do follow the basic routine I posted before but its just a guideline how I feel determines what I do more than my set workout.
Shoulder health is very important to me, there arenāt to many people who lift heavy who have never had a shoulder issue. I do rotator cuff after shoulders. I do 3 exercises 12-20 reps for rotator cuff. Usually 3 sets for each movement.
The most I have done on Shoulder press is a triple with 405. I have never tried to max out. I really donāt like doing anything besides Bench Press for less than a triple.
Rasturai I will write out a sample workout exercise next post I have to shot to the gym. I have them saved somewhere on my computer just gotta find it.

Alright that sounds awesome man, I canāt wait to see it!
Is there a specific scheme you use for pyramid on the bench press (your main movement) or, whatever you feel likeā¦do you ever switch out benches for inclines or something, or would that work all be assistance kind of stuff.
Again, canāt wait to see it!

I am going to put in Mondays workout every set,rep and weight right after I am done with it.
Can i ask you about your nutrition? Do you just eat everything in site to maintain and try and gain or are you on a strict diet counting calories and stuff like that?
I try to eat healthy. Good quality meat and fish. I donāt like vegetables but try to eat as much as possible plus I use a super greens. Plenty of fruit and nuts. I try to get at least 300 grams of protein a day most days I am pretty close.

Do that in competition and youāll be one of the 15 strongest pressers of all time and the third best in the 275 class.
Someone T-Cell this guy. TC/Biotest should get in touch with him immediately.
