Bench competition Going for 600 lbs

[airsmith2k]

definitely another lie about how much someone can bench press....i hate when someone like half my size tells me he can bench like 400 pounds then i see him in teh gym and he only goes half way down and can barely do 225

Can’t he take a little test?

600 lbs, I don’t understand the attraction of weigh lifting for the sake of power lifting,

Who cares what you can lift?

First he should go to medical doctor and have his hormone levels tested, next he need to eat more, train harder and also his bench shirt, is it denim? single ply or double ply? that has big role with powerlifting lifts and he should look into training with other powerlifters in his area to assistance and a good push

good luck to him

im not sure
but he doesnt have a good bench shirt right now, he just started training with an old one he had left over, he needs to get a good one, the other day the shirt was too tight he couldnt touch his chest with 525

Spend that money on a better bench shirt imo.

Unless it's 585 raw in which case he's the strongest natural alive already and doesn't need any help

he needs a new shirt the one he has now is old

hes not trying to get bigger, hes already big, hes sick of seeing people out there on these powerlifting magazines winning meets when he knows hes stronger, he hasnt done a competition in a yr or two. hes won several natural meets.

If he's natural, what's his name?

no need to jump all over him, the guy might only be benching 405 raw... bench shirts make it a whole different game. There are plenty of natural PLers in the 405-455 range

Bullshit!
There are no 228lb cats out there benching 600lbs that are natural. NONE!

Just because you can't fathom yourself doing it, doesn't mean there aren't people out there doing it.

I myself know the feeling, I am not naturally (by meaning of genetic strength/tendons, ect) strong at all. I started out struggling with the bar. My little brother on the other hand at <120lbs could bench his weight the 1st time he tried

I wrestled alot with him as a little guy, he was strong as shit then too.
