I didn't say it was nothing special. Do you even bother to take the time and read?
I said with good genetics, and wide shoulders, an advanced lifter north of 200 lbs, in time, should be able to post up a solid ## on the shoulder press.
The smith makes it easier by not having to balance the weight. I only know maybe 2-3 other naturals that can military press 315 like I can. I know TONS of non natural competitors who do it easily.
I know a lot of 180 pounders who out deadlift me constantly.... I am simply not good at that motion.
Everyone has a lift / motion that they are good at. I was allways good on any shoulder motion.
You are a fool. Plain and simple.
EXACTLY!!!!The reason I made the claim of the 315lb press behind neck was because someone started a thread a while back about "what is your best lift?". (It might even have been me)
I responded that my best lift was the press behind neck on a smith machine and that I had done 315 for reps. No word of a lie. I've also done 495lbs on squats on smith machine to parallel and can also leg press 15 plates a side on a Cybex legress. Those were my three best lifts. All of those lifts were done when I was injecting test and deca four times a week and I weighed 248lbs.
I'm pretty shite at everything else - I struggle with deadlifts - I can barely get 400lb off the ground and I'm also weak on general back and bicep work too.
The guy you see in the photograph lifting the Rolling Thunder at the Olympia Expo is me but it was long after I came off gear and had lost weight - I think I was down to 220lbs in that pic if memory serves correct.
For the record, I'm currently training back up to my heaviest weights at the moment and as soon as I do so I promise I will post either pics or videos - now that my pic is out there, I've got nothing to hide and I love proving people wrong so stay tuned.
