here’s me doing 315, i weigh about 200 pounds, give or take 5 pounds. this was filmed today and i was pretty tired. still ridiculously easy, though.
it takes a few minutes to load, apparently. i’ll upload some other videos soon. and i’ll make more videos soon, like front squat videos and some of my buddies benching <one buddy will be pressing around 425+ at a bodyweight of about 245>.
maybe i can get another buddy of mine pulling around 645 sumo style weighing around 170, as well.
that arch was ridiculously awesome
great lifting - you looked good for more!
whats your goal?
powerlifter or bodybuilder(not the posing in trucks kind, just the look good kind)?
Hi Huey, been a while since I’d seen a post from you, have you been MIA or is it me?
Good lift, mate; it really did look pretty easy, congratulations!
You know, I would have thought you weighed more that 200lb looking at you in the video. Must be the lighting and the makeup…
I’d be more impressed if you did it without the arch and the 6-inch range of motion.
lol thats way more than 6 inches

Sorry, sarcasm.

And I’m sure you can rep 315 without that gayass arch.
He’s probably stonger, arch or not.
Deal with it.
To Huey:
That looked nice and clean.
No chest springboarding.
here’s me benching 315 at a bodyweight of around 200:
here’s me with 335 <needed a touch here at the top, not sure why, i’ve done this weight before>:
here’s a rack pull of 635, <no straps, as i do this primarily for forearm strength> i think i can pull 675:

i never thought i arched that much until i actually saw the video. i always felt like my arch was very average. but i do fold quite a bit!
see, this is an advantage of watching videos of yourself, you can study and analyze your technique.
see, i’m on the balls of my feet which doesn’t allow for much leg drive, but i do feel pretty stable.

i just wanna keep building a foundation of strength and size. i’m not gonna be some carbophobe who’s afraid to eat.
the way i look at it, it takes years and years to build a solid foundation of muscle mass and strength, and only a couple of months to starve yourself and go tanning.
so before going on a stupid deprivation diet to try and look like something special, i’ll keep eating my pizzas, sucking back my sodas, and hitting up chinese buffets.
fuck i look fat in one of those videos! but truth be told i’m not too fat. my waist is actually 32 inches.

i dunno, i think i post on a regular basis? a couple of times a week i guess? :-\
short term goals, hit around 365, maybe a little more, get all my other lifts up. i seriously should be able to squat 400+ pounds but i can’t right now.
since i have a back injury i can’t do squats to the best of my ability and full range deadlifts aren’t happening.
so what i’m going to do it try to front squat close to 400 pounds <hit 335 before>. and partial deadlift around 700… then i’ll try and diet <i’ve been telling myself every monday for the past 2-3 months that i’d start dieting!>
it’s too hard though i love eating!
i also do zero cardio <how obvious is that?> but i’ve had a couple of MMA lessons with a buddy of mine who is SKILLED! so i’ll be doing MMA training, learning to strike , depends, footwork, focus mitts, etc… jumping rope…
it’s be nice to achive all those strength goals and maintain that strength a bodyweight of around 180-185.

the arch is the best way to do it considering my current training methodology. you’re not gonna catch me doing ‘chest day’ or doing an ‘arm day’. that’s not my style. i try to make my movements as compound as possible, and arching and keeping my elbows tight allows me to hit much more of the body than the popular style of flat back, wide grip, and flared out elbows.
here’s a fat bar chin video:
p.s. my buddy who does a couple of reps at the beginning of this short video has pulled 635 pounds sumo-style at a bodyweight of around 175-185.
Nice lifts…
Just out of curiosity, is it legal to have only part of the foot on the floor, I mean in PL competitions? I thought it had to be the whole foot…
If you planted your feet square on the ground you could likely get more leg drive into the bench. Could see some quick poundage increases. I’m not a bench guru though, so I could be wrong.

i think it depends on the federation?

oh you’re absolutely right. but since my back injury, i’ve had to go on the balls of my feet because planting them flat causes irritation. as such, i get very little leg drive through the balls of my feet. it’s largely just for stability. once i fully recover and am able to plant my feet flat again, i’ll be able to drive through my heels and get more power.
