I finally saw a big bench today

I saw Willie Williams here in WV do 645 for a set of 5 reps and then push 705 afterwards.

At Gold's Venice there was a very average looking guy who used to bench 510lbs for 6 reps. He used to act like an idiot, yack crap, then irritate the hell out of some guy heavy benching... till he could get the guy to bet with him on who had the best bench.

There was always a new sucker.

I saw a 21 yr old guy do 500 for 2. Pretty impressive. I myself have done 400 at 220 lbs in january. I am 23.

Prolly the most impressive this i have ever seen was one of our OL on my college football getting ready to squat 750. All the lights turned down low and only one over the squat rack. about 100 people were around him. he's getting all psyched up to get the weight and he asks our center to punch him in the face. The center blasts him right in the side of the face... blood comes rushing out... and he falls backwards... we pick him up, throw him towards the weight.. he squats it and the rest is history.

Oh and i also saw this guy at my gym deadlift 650 and his nose started bleeding profusely while he did it. When he finished pulling it he started screaming like crazy and had his hands up in the air.

HMMM i wonder if these two guys were on gear???

At the college I went to there was a football player who supposed could bench 600 lbs. This was when the WR was "only" around 660. This was a Div-II school too.

A few monhs ago I met a guy who claimed a 660 bench on his first workout in the gym. That had about as much credibility as most 'football benches'.
