Most I ever tried was 4 plates plus a 25 a side.  Thought I was going to die.  I believe if my math is correct that it's 455.  I know some jackasses that put 5 plates a side on a hammer strength and claim a 500 bench not realizing you don't add 45 for a bar that's not there and it's not the same.  I could do 6 plates a side on a hammer but no fucking way could I lift the same weight on a barbell flat bench.

BigBadWolfe (Mike Wolfe) and liquid_c (Ryan Dewitt) are probably the two strongest benchers here. A few others have benched in around 500lbs like OTH and Adrain.

405 is an awesome bench and to be honest i remember the day i got 405 much clearer than 500 as 405 just looked and sounded so awesome and i was 23.the first time i did 405 i got 2 so that was even better.you dont see many people benching 315 never mind 405.

300lbs touch and go is my current best, I'll never load more than 315 on the bar for bench in my whole life my end goal is just to be able to use 315 for 5-8 reps. That will be the absolute natural limit for me without becoming a fat fuck.

All these bench presses figures don't impress me unless you perform the bench press with defined glutes and abs. Anyone can stuff their face to a big bench press.

But no, I've never done 500. My best, totally drug-free, is in the lower 400s. Done a 2-inch board press with 455.

I can hit over four plates any time I walk into a gym.

I am struggling to reach the mid-400s. Really struggling.

All my stated achievements are with a full, legal pause on my chest. In fact, almost all my working sets in pressing are done with full, controlled pauses.

(With any amount of real gear I am quite certain I'd press well over five within months.)

I always wonder what if when it comes to time and gear amounts. I competed off and on from 19-24 but back then there was not much guidance regarding gear.

No doubt and any injuries I deal with now were from football and a bad mountain bike crash. Also always competed in the lighter weight classes and stayed lean. I can't imagine my joints if I had continued with the crazy weights!  Spotted a buddy one time that weighed over 270 and completely tore his pec with 525. Another friend tore his bicep in a contest dead lifting 700.

Not too many, indeed. Did it myself (paused, as a junior, drug free), but that seemed to be rare. Then again I have been blown away in bench meets by a 600-Lb raw bencher, so I never felt I was hot shit for benching 405.

At the moment my heaviest set on flat bench is 300 pounds. I only get 6 reps with a spot on the last two or three but it feels heavy enough and I am making progress. This will be followed by three sets of dips to failure and I am outta there.

Post by: flinstones1 on October 16, 2015, 03:14:55 AM
Lots of guys underestimating the strength it takes to even bench  405 none the less 500. a 315 bodybuilding style bench press with a controlled negative is impressive bench to me. You guys claiming you benched 405 are probably arching your back and having a guy hold onto the bar or just have alligator arms.

For the record Ive standing military pressed 275, and  dumbbell shoulder pressed the 120's for 10 reps, with a raw bench of only 405. Rob 12 years ago you think you were military pressing 3 wheels? Because you'll never find a guy with a true 500 lb raw bench not capable of doing so.   Walter is legit I just find it funny how guys on getbig were stronger than a prime kevin levrone and don't have a video to back it. Man if i benched 500 I'd get that shit on video!

Look at old videos of kevin and ronnie these guys were not having an easy time benching 5 wheels a side….3-4 reps touch and go. Paused both of these guys would be at around 500

lol yes because every guy that jumps on steroids increases their bench by 100 pounds in one cycle.  ::) There is no way a guy is going to take his bench from 400 to 500 with gear if he's already been training for powerlifting. . Had you been training with high reps pump style bodybuilding training your whole life, immediately switched to pure powerlifting training  I would say yeah you might get to 500 in a few years. And that's if you have a great response to steroids...….Look at the studies done on steroids on every day people with no previous strength training,  I don't even think  they don't get 30% increases in strength. A guy training for decades  might improve by 5%. Unless I misunderstood and  you have benched 500 in the past on gear, if so my apologies   ;)

Lots of guys underestimating the strength it takes to even bench  405 none the less 500. a 315 bodybuilding style bench press with a controlled negative is impressive bench to me. You guys claiming you benched 405 are probably arching your back and having a guy hold onto the bar or just have alligator arms.

For the record Ive standing military pressed 275, and  dumbbell shoulder pressed the 120's for 10 reps, with a raw bench of only 405. Rob 12 years ago you think you were military pressing 3 wheels? Because you'll never find a guy with a true 500 lb raw bench not capable of doing so.   Walter is legit I just find it funny how guys on getbig were stronger than a prime kevin levrone and don't have a video to back it. Man if i benched 500 I'd get that shit on video!

Look at old videos of kevin and ronnie these guys were not having an easy time benching 5 wheels a side….3-4 reps touch and go. Paused both of these guys would be at around 500

yes i militaried 315 back when i pressed 500.I spent most my time benching,narrow grip benching,military pressing,dipping,curling and bb rowing.doing those so heavy had a big impact on my bad lower back so yes i was a strong military presser.Ive never videotaped anything as it doesnt mean much to me to tape stuff.I was known at many gyms around mass for my strengtg and size and that was pretty cool no need to video.If you doubt me that is fine as it was back in the day and i cant do it any more so im not a 500 lb bencher anymore.

Well assuming your not full of shit that is incredible because I know some of  the strongest guys in the world and they are on about 6 times the amount of shit you are on to reach the same numbers.

Every back will be arched when on a flat bench. Most larger men won't have the flexibility of a 16-y.o. russian girl (i.e. Naumova), so it doesn't really matter all that much.

Strentgh runs in my family,my did hit 500 on 15 mgs of dbol a day back in 1980 at 250.My grandfather hit 450 no juice at 5'10 240.some people are stringer than others,dont know what to tell you but honsetly that 500 bench doesnt mean shit to me now so hardly anything i brag about.I mention it here on this forum as that is something talked about other than that its pretty far from my mind most of the time.a guy came thru milford golds about 15 years ago and he did 585 and was noone in the strength world just a real strong guy,they are out there.Just as in anything else some of the toughest,strongest etc... Will never be known or heard of,doesnt mean they dont exist.

My family is known for being big and strong.When i lifted for strength and size it is all i did and thought about.i dont really care to argue anout this so think what you will,no sweat off my balls.I saw a 15 yo 5 years ago bench 335 at 5'7 190 natural,i know a 20 year old eho benched 425 at 215 natural.So yes there are people that are strong that you dont know,if uou are not strong then you are not training hard enough or dont care for strength.

A lot of strong warriors in this thread with elite stats.   Most can't hit 500lbs, but 400+lbs seems to be a cake walk for pretty much everyone.

What's odd is that I've trained in so many gyms for years and years and rarely see anyone coming close to 400lbs on a bench...once in awhile I do.  Only 500lb benches I've seen were by trained, competitive pls.

Even a legit 315lb bench press is rare. Most guys I see usually have from around 135lbs to 275lbs on the the bar when they are bench pressing. This includes some of the fairly jacked guys.

True but when i was training in the mid 80s, everyone  seemed to be lifting for maximum strength.
Squats, deads, bench and power cleans mostly...no one I knew was a bodybuilder. Max attempts were preformed every work out. I can think of 4 guys who had a 4 plate bench.

You guys who are big benchers know that a 315 plus bench is relatively rare, and a risk to guys over 30 years old, even a 405 bencher can make strength gains staying in the 275-315 weight range if you vary your training -GVT, rest pause, drop sets, cluster training, 5 x 5 etc... which greatly reduces the chance of a pec tear or blown out shoulder as you get older

I agree conpletely that a 315 bench is rare in most gyms.But there are alot of strong prople out there either way.So to be so closed minded to think just cause you havent seen it means it doesnt exist.At 3 golds gyms i frequent in mass i rarely see anyone bench 275 but i have seen a few guys hit 405 and 315 but not common.There are alot of basement dwellers that bench more than anyone in this thread im sure but all your fragile egos wont acknowledge that.Ive done 500 touch and go no pause as im not that strong.Im not claiming im an elite bencher but i was very strong.simple as that.This is a lifting forum so there prob will be big strong guys here,yet most here dont want to admit it.You know what benching 500 and having 1.00 got me?a can of soda so who gives a fuck.

I've trained since I was 17 yrs old.  Had all kinds of injuries.  Tried every movement, machine, exercise I've seen in person or read about.

I trained chest this week and I'm 40....here's what I did:

Warmup - Cybex chest press machine (250lb stack...so it says)
Warmup set 1: half stack 25 reps
Warmup set 2: 3/4 stack 25 reps
Warmup set 3: full stack 25 reps

Working exercise 1 - Hammer Strength incline press
Set 1: 4 plates x 25 reps
Set 2: 6 plates x 20 reps
Set 3: 8 plates x 20 reps
Set 4: 10 plates x 8 reps
Set 5: 10 plates x 5 reps

Working exercise 2: Smith machine flat bench
Set 1: 4 plates x 30 reps
Set 2: 6 plates x 20 reps
Set 3: 8 plates x 8 reps
Set 4: 8 plates x 4 reps

Working exercise 3: Hammer Strength decline press
Set 1: 6 plates x 20 reps
Set 2: 8 plates x 15 reps
Set 3: 10 plates x 8 reps
Set 4: 10 plates x 4 reps

Working exercise 4: Cybex chest press machine (250lb stack...so it says)
Set 1: stack x 15
Set 2: stack until failure (about 12)

Went home with great pump...chest, tris and front delts felt rock solid.

Quoted for MFing truth. There's some insanely strong dudes out there, who just have no idea how strong they are compared others. Two months ago I met a few guys in their late twenties who had been training haphazardly at a weak-ass chain gym. One 6'7", the other 6'9". Both benched 405 without any proper technique, just raw power. The bigger dude also closed the CoC 2.5 on his first ever attempt at grippers, and deadlifted 600 easily -- while complaining at the top that this was quite heavy... ::) There are beasts out there.

There was a guy that did bent rows with 500lb and power cleans with 300..... Even all the big bodybuilding gyms I've been in, ive never seen anything like what I witnessed there, especially being such a small place, with so small a membership

No fucking way, fake plates.

From what I heard and read, the guy is 100% legit. Some people are just strong. Muscle mass does not always equate to strength.

I mean, look at all those arm wrestlers. Most professional arm wrestlers could beat a bodbybuilder in an arm wrestling match, despite being much smaller.

How many in the 405 bench club on Getbig- maybe 8 or 10 ?

405 is a pretty decent bench, don't see it too often ...

405 is an exceptional bench.

I need help understanding just how much steroids help with improving bench press numbers. The bench is the lift I struggle the most with. My best push press is better than my best bench. I know a lot of it has to do with my body's leverages and probably from emphasising lower body lifts and conditioning but I am curious as to how much steroids contribute to upper body pressing strength.

It seems as though exceptional squat and deadlift numbers can be achieved by natural trainees even at a lower bodyweight but the big benches almost always require the person to be using drugs.

No fucking way, fake plates.

x2

There ain't no fucking way.  For one thing, he ain't far from a triple bodyweight bench.  For another, he's within spitting distance of the raw world record.  Lastly, his bodytype doesn't look remotely like a benchpress specialist should look like.  I'd bet my last dollar that everybody who has ever hit a 3x bodyweight bench has a barrel chest and short arms -- whereas this guy has long, thin arms and the chest girth of a 14 year old girl.

I'd bet that the innermost plates are fake, at the very least.

No fucking way, fake plates.
could very well be real. Some people are built for certain lifts. After my bicep was reattached after ripping off it's incredibly stronger than my other arm just by moving the attachment site. Maybe his attachments and the way his joints are allow him to do strength feats beyond what seems possible for him. Vids look real. And the plates slam only as hard as u let them.

My best was two w 405. Could never get 3. Worked out w 315 alone. My fantasy is to get back to 315. I've let work and business really interfere w lifting the last ....20 years!!!!  Im
Still in the game n never left but I'd like to just chuck it all be happy n lift on a regular strict regimen again.

Or maybe guys on drugs just get big benches. ;)  The answer is simple really, , the muscles in the upper body are more sensitive to androgens…you  have a lot of  androgen receptors in the delts traps etc. . This  is why women have stronger legs than men In  comparison to their upper body

Got more to say but I have to read all the previous posts before I do my best to refresh my powerlifting memory.

BTW... Back in them good old days I managed to bench 405 but to be perfectly honest .... I was on ritalin ... which is only supposed to make you concentrate harder.

Did it one time and never repeated.

I am not aware that Arnold ever got  a 500 pound bench.

Hi, Gus!



Gus and I trained together for that movie at Astro Gym in San Gabriel. Gus and another Japanese powerlifter named Hiro Isagawa. That was my first introduction to powerlifting. It was a little comical watching me spot Gus with standing behind the neck presses with 315. Gus' weak point was his bench. That was the one thing I beat him in.

BTW, the movie is Running man. He even brought me to the set a couple of times.

COACH, Yea , If I recall correctly his best lift was deadlifting.

Cus's character name in RUNNING MAN was BUZZSAW and that same year (1987???) he appeared in a movie called HOUSE as ARNOLD the Barbarian.

I first met Gus when he was a baseball player before he got serious about powerlifting.

He promoted some very good powerlifting events  and may still be doing the same today.

In fact I believe he started his own  powerlifting organization possibly 20 years ago.

Speaking of powerlifing .... did you ever know or communicate with Mike Lambert? (Owner / editor of Powerlifting USA????)

COACH, Yea , If I recall correctly his best lift was deadlifting.

Cus's character name in RUNNING MAN was BUZZSAW and that same year (1987???) he appeared in a movie called HOUSE as ARNOLD the Barbarian.

I first met Gus when he was a baseball player before he got serious about powerlifting.

He promoted some very good powerlifting events  and may still be doing the same today.

In fact I believe he started his own  powerlifting organization possibly 20 years ago.

Speaking of powerlifing .... did you ever know or communicate with Mike Lambert? (Owner / editor of Powerlifting USA????)


Gus runs the WABDL org.
His meets are top notch. I met him up here in Maine a couple years back. Very thin these days after having a quad bypass years ago.

He's still doing his thing though...

Not sure who the fat guy is, but thats Gus on the right...

I worked out with the Army powerlifting team champion, at 280lbs+ at 5'10" he barely would get 550+......after working with him for over a year he got me to 405x3 at 235lbs and I was 10% or so BF working out 2x daily, Army PT and then lifting with him.

Just for perspective this is me a year or so ago at 210-215lbs at 12-14% fat

The following would be required for GB validation of lift:

Signed and notarized statement from a degreed metalurgist that the bar and plates lifted are 100% genuine.
No spotter or anyone that could spot you within 1000 yards of the bench station.
Professional grade video of you performing the lift in the nude without belt, wraps or chalk.
Video must be produced and directed by Speilberg or Copalla.
Video must qualify for Cannes film festival.
Signed and notarized copies of every person's birth certificates in attendance at Colosseum gym that day.
Sample of your blood drawn by degreed/licensed hematologist (not a phlebotomist) verified via a reputable DNA testing facility.
Dental records provided and verified by degreed/licensed oral surgeon or general dentist.


All evidence must be finalized and presented to GB within 1 hour following the lift.

I sent copies of powerlifting USA to OMR to show some of my lifts when I competed and other proof. No videos back in the dark ages when I put up 505. Oh and what's left of one of my 80's trophies.

Mid fifties and grandfather to be still in pretty good shape considering my spinal problems.

I've traveled to almost every major city in the US and other countries in Europe.  I've been in and out of many gyms along the way.  Judging by my observations I'd estimate that 95% of the people who workout regularly cannot bench 500.  Even most juiced up hardcore lifters can't do it.

In Canada they have the metric system (because they're gay) , so I still bench 950 there, but it is kilos.

A 405 raw ( no bench shirt) , good form is very impressive.

Doing 500 lbs with a multi-ply bench shirt rarely (if ever) equals 405 raw.

After my last pec tear I stopped benching again, but started back up 2-3 months ago. Maxed out a few weeks ago at 375 on a fat bar. Trying not to let the weights escalate, letting my collagen get back up to strength, and then going for an alltime PR second half of the year. 405x2 would be nice! ;) But I really want 440 Lbs (200 kg).

Good lifting. What was your body wt?

I have no issues with the tight spandex type bench shirts or wrist wraps.
The straight jacket  bench shirts that add 30% ( or more) ruined the sport.
It's goofy to see some lifter require 6 other guys and 5 min of hard work just to get in the bench shirt.

Then, they waddle up to the bench with a damn posse in tow just to get set up.
I've seen the plates duct-taped so they don't rattle as much LOL.

At an Arnold expo I watched as one HUGE dude tried for a 1000 lbs bench.
Just before he had it on his chest, the shirt straps started snapping like bungee cords.
I heard him grown and the spotters move the wt to one side and he fell to the other.

The massive wt crashed to the platform with a lot of loud banging.
The failed bencher had flopped to the other side, laying there like a huge blob.
He looked like some pathetic elephant seal who just lost a fight for the right to mate.

Consider that the world record raw ( no shirt) is  738 lbs. ( 335kg)
The world record in an unrestricted bench shirt is 1102 lbs now.
That's a difference of 364 lbs, or  33% more with a shirt!

Today I feel stronger than I did back then, but won't attempt those poundages anymore.

Fucking fuck. Earlier post was from the gym. It's now 3.5 sets of bench later and I just tore a pec. AGAIN. Right side, in the middle. When will I learn...

Have to stop typing, losing sensation in my hand. That too is familiar...

Currently at 260 or so, very fat. And yes, shirts are bullshit, that's why I stopped competing.

Ever consider dropping down to 220 class and competing in raw bench?

the losing hand sensation is probably your ulnar nerve, your wraps might be shitty

I'd accept your lifts as legit based on your history here as a straight shooter.
Is that 485 for 3 raw?

I've worn wrist wraps for years and most likely had them on at the time of that lift.   Never used any RX bb chemicals.

Never used wraps, so that's certainly not it. But it's a familiar feeling, had it after every tear. FYI: 4th pec tear so far...

Not good enough, double bw raw is good but not going to win comps. And after this new tear I'm going back to focusing on overhead pressing. Still chasing a 315 seated press.

Not to tell you your business but after all these tears have you thought of backing off the poundages and training a bit lighter?!

An understandable comment. However, oddly, I have never torn a pec with heavy weights. Like today: was supposed to do 295 for 8, it tore at rep 2. And that's been the case every time. Weird, but that's what happened 4 times already.

A 405 raw ( no bench shirt) , good form is very impressive.

Doing 500 lbs with a multi-ply bench shirt rarely (if ever) equals 405 raw.

FYI, the best I ever did was 405 for 2 reps ( raw) with decent form and no spotter hands on the bar.

My best bench was awhile back when I did actual powerlifts and had abs  ;)

Thanks man. I'm going to work seated press and military press hard. No injuries from those yet.

Still wondering why I'm so prone to tears all over my body. Perhaps I should do slow eccentrics to build up my collagen matrix.

I sent copies of powerlifting USA to OMR to show some of my lifts when I competed and other proof. No videos back in the dark ages when I put up 505. Oh and what's left of one of my 80's trophies.

Mid fifties and grandfather to be still in pretty good shape considering my spinal problems.

Keep on truckin'. You're still looking healthy and fit for a fellow of any age. Sorry about your spinal problems. Fortunately, my having degenerative disc disease has not bothered me other than it causing me to shrink almost 3" since I was 18. In fact, I zap my back very seldom. Much less often than when I was younger.

i've got some permanent injuries

so its more about hanging in these days than lifting big

Sensible. Do you think in hindsight that the heavy lifting led to the injuries? Would you change anything if you could go back in time?

I wonder?
I think it's just like any fighter or football player looking back on their career.
The Ali vs Frazier fights were legendary battles where they beat on each other.

Big Ronnie would never be viewed with the same awe if he lifted carefully with moderate wts.
We want to see larger then life pros doing impressive workouts in the gym.

Jay once said something about this issue in one of his videos.
He was doing t-bar rows as a guest in a gym and said ;
" Add another plate.You won't  be remembered unless you  lift heavy ass wts."

I havent barbell benched in 8 years.

I just did a clean unassisted set of flat DB press with the 120s*. Getting in and out of position alone is more work than the set  :-\

Working out alone has some obvious drawbacks. Would love to work out more with WalterWhite. That guy pushes hard in the gym...




* I know: nobody saw it, no video made and the weights weren't calibrated, so it didn't happen.

Last week, I was out in Seattle on business and worked out at the downtown Gold's. The sheer volume of demotivated, flabby twinks was seriously depressing. At 0500, nobody in shape is training in Seattle. The upside of working out alone is the only person I see is a beautiful older man carved of granite (all homo/narcissist)
