There are photos of Pat Casey using 210lb'er's:) on the bench press. Edit: Oops, sorry, the photos are of 180's being inclined, but it's been mentioned by B. Wilhelm that he also used the 210's.
i read about that in Milo, he supposedly took them off the rack, sat down, kicked them up himself, performed the reps and returned them to the rack, none of this pussy ass getting a partner to hand them to him and then dropping them on the floor bullshit, that's the kind of strength you'd expect from a LEGITIMATE 600 lb. bencher, Paul Anderson one arm shoulder push pressed specially made 300 lb. dumbbells.
I used the 150s for dumbell rows at my gym they are the biggest. I pressed the 125s
Paul Anderson overhead pressed two 250 dumbells for reps on the Johnny Carson show.
Everyone knows of Ronnie's 200 lb db presses but has anyone ever done more? I heard Ronnie pressed 250s too anyone know maybe?
That's a peanut! Kovacs can press 300 lbs, for five reps! SUCKMYMUSCLE
that's nothing. sri chinmoy lifted over 7000 pounds overhead with one arm.
I heard of a Samoan gym, they have custom 270's and a few guys can rep them out. My friends dad, whos also a big ass samoan, used to warm up with 600 lbs on the bench, Someone told me he tore his pec clean off the bone one day, pretty dumb.
I get called a Dumbell alot , does that count ?
Well If your 250lbs and can do 10 pushups then technically you can claim you can bench a 250lb dumbell for 10.
Shit I am only around 230lb at present , what if I did 15 to 20 push ups and some star jumps ??
