Mendelson Benches 875!

[endpoint]

I said training. . . .not enhancement.

There's a difference between the two.

someones quick on the ball today.

any time someone posts information about a record or feat of strength.....someone pipes up and says. "he uses roids" or "he uses a bench shirt" I thought i would step in early

it was a joke.

Not trying to take away from this guys lift because it is impressive, but that isn't even a triple bodyweight bench. What I find more impressive are the smaller guys that are benching well over 3x bodyweight.

1) Those guys are very short, and their arms are short even for someone as vertically challenged as they are. Scott has much longer arms, which means he needs an assload more muscle in relation to height to do the same strength to bodyweight ratio.


2) Allot of those guys depend heavily on their shirts. They are still very strong without them but there is no way in hell they could do triple bodyweight without it. Scott does not get much out of his double. His raw competition best is 713 but that was a long time ago. he recently did a raw triple with 700 that means his raw max was probably around 760, but now he might even be able to do 780 or more raw.

a phenomenal acomplishment

read somewhere that he only started competing again a few years ago. i know there are alot of different federations out there, but does anyone know of a website where i could find raw powerlifting records? every time a i do a search i get some regional listing. perhaps no one has bothered to compile these records.

What type of training does Scott use??

you can tell by looking at him that he does plenty of shoulder work...I bet his OHP is as impressive as his bench.
