My girlfriend bought the latest MD for me; I would never be caught contributing to fag Blechman's coffers...Anyway, in Melvin Anthony's column he states that he used to superset flat bench with incline bench, non-stop, 405 for ten on each! Why lie like this? It's an insult...Give us all a break! Eneough of the bullshit! No wonder Craig Titus hit this guy...I want to hit him now also!
-
hahahahaha, bullshit, he never did any such thing.
-
Of course he didn't...Why the need to lie? Monster insecurity...
-
nothing new! it's the Universal language of bodybuilders. claiming more they can actually do

Is that a lot for a dude that big? It doesn't seem that crazy.

true. They think they're so big and strong that, it would be inapropriate to show any weakness. the power of steroids rule
-
That was a typo. It was actually 405 for 4 sets of flat and incline flyes supersetted.
-

It's a ton of weight for someone who weighs (I'm guessing) 250 in the off season...How many pro's can do 405 for 20 on the flat bench?
-
Sounds likes he needs to be in the MuscleTech Bench Press Challenge.

MAJOR JEALOUSY
GIVEN HOW MUCH JUICE THESE PRO ARE ON WHY DO YOU FEEL HE IS NOT TELLING THE TRUTH??? IF I WERE JUICING LIKE THAT I WOULD EXPECT TO BENCH 405 FOR REPS AS WELL

Maybe if you ever lifted a weight in your life, you would understand how crazy his claim is...Juice or no juice...It's bullshit! Jealous no...Offended, maybe...

this is obviously written by someone whos never juiced before. youre an idiot if you think its simply a matter of juicing and then you will magically be doing supersets with 405....

I actually believe him. Offseason with that narrow frame, that's very possible.

I am actually 270 knuckle head daont hate cause you wish you could do it. ;)

come on Melvin 405 for ten on flats and incline supersets? i don't even think Ronnie can do that, i might be able to see 315 but not 405.
-

not many or else why not put it out on video.
the only person who said they could do it and i believe is kevin.
-

Hahaha, he'll never reverse that claim. The only way for him to prove it is a video, and judging by the epic spelling of his "knuckle head daont hate" reply, I doubt a video will ever see the light of day.
-

Monster bullshit. No one believes that gem.
-

Try 275, but since he is on the Chad Program, try about 285. So I guess 405 is reasonable. He was putting up some respectable weight on his video. So i can see it.

Light eyes? ???

Hahaha, "daont hate" just because Melvin has access to quality anabolics that allow him to lift heavier weight than you!
-

he's not lifting any heavy weight.....he's all machines.

What he really needs is quality access to a dictionary.
-
he was 278 last august before the o, he competes around 250.
-

Funny thing about that sentence... you could be talking about Melissa D.

So if these poundages are right, it would be the same thing as him flat benching 405 for 10. then taking a 10 second break and then knocking out another 15 reps on the same flat bench....25 total reps on the flat bench with 405 with only one break for 10 seconds....No way that is going to happen...

First of all it is never said how many sets Melvin did total. As it stands all we know is he said he supersets chest with 405 pounds on the bench and incline according to massonmass. At 280 pounds off season and plenty of juice I am sure he can do a set of 405 bench and then go right to incline for a set of the same. Does he then take a rest and repeat this cycle one, two or three more times? We are not given a clue as to the EXACT format of his work out. I personally believe his workout routine. I at 250 pounds can bench 315 for reps and then go to the incline for reps...I then have to stop and recharge before i repeat this, because I am not on the juice or any other energy boosting products. BTW my 250 pounds is NOT all muscle but I can handle the 315. Now if I can do that I am sure Melvin at 250 of rock muscle or 280+ pounds of off season muscle can handle this easily. So far as the disbelievers on this thread go...IT IS ALL JEALOUSY YOU GUYS, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T DO IT!!!!!! DON'T HATE THE PLAYER...LEARN AND WORK TO BE ONE
-
Hey Melvin, if you're reading the thread, why don't you give us your tips for the Ironman?
-
I doubt its a lie.
D
-
in the battle for the olympia series melvin was weak as hell. maybe in the offseason hes stronger... strength has more to do with tendon,ligament and muscles... then just big muscles. you have to have that whole combo to be strong.
-
Doesnt matter how strong he is, the guys a manicurist, lol what a sausage sucker.

nothing is fking jealously...The way it is written is that he does a set of 10 reps on the flat and then goes over and does a set of 10 reps on the incline in one superset....Well to me thats 20 fuking reps...I said that if he can do that then he should be able to knock out 25 reps if he was to just do one set on the flat alone...I added 5 more reps to the flat for most can flat more then they can incline...I don't have a fking jealous bone in my body...But i know for a f king fact that this guy can't do 20 to 25 reps with 405...And your 315 isn't anywhere near 405(that is apples to fking oranges)..
ok meltdown over
-

Okay, I guess you didn't see his former girlfreind Bea. She was hot as hell, and his wife is hot, she's from Peru. And that "Blind Date" segment, the girl he was with was hot.
Hell, as a manicurist, you meet tons of women, and I think he gave that same woman a pedicure.
-
not many or else why not put it out on video.

Kevin is probably the only pro that I think that could do it.

I AM SO GLAD THAT YO ARE AWARE THAT YOU ARE MELTING DOWN!!!!...THIS WAT I DON'T HAVE TO SAY IT. FACT IS JUST BECAUSE ONE CAN BENCH 10 REPS ON FLAT AND THEN DO 10 REPS ON INCLINE DOES NOT MEAN THEY CAN DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF EITHER EXERCISE WHILE FORSAKING THE OTHER. FLAT BENCH WORKS PRIMARILY THE LOWER PEC AND TRICEPS WHILE INCLINE GETS UPPER PEC, SHOULDERS AND TRICEPS. YOUR SUPPOSED FORMULA IS A BUST BECAUSE IT DOES NOT TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE FACT THAT THE TWO MOVEMENTS INVOLVE DIFFERENT MUSCLE GROUPS. WHILE THE LOWER PEC IS RESTING THE UPPER AND SHOULDER WORK IN LIFTING THE WEIGHT DURING A INCLINE MOVEMENT. WHILE FLAT BENCHING THE UPPER PEC AND SHOULDER REST (BUT NOT COMPLETELY) WHILE THE LOWER PEC AND TRICEPS DO MOST OF THE WORK. IS IT MORE UNDERSTANDABLE NOW??? IT IS ALL A MATTER OF THINKING THINGS THROUGH BEFORE COMMENTING ON WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT POSSIBLE. CLEARLY YOU DON'T WORK OUT THAT MUCH IF AT ALL AND YOU CERTAINLY DON'T USE MUCH WEIGHT IF YOU DO WORKOUT.
BTW...COULD YOU CUT OUT ALL OF THE PROFANITY...IT DOES NOT HELP MAKE YOUR POINT. AND OH YEAH..MY 315 IS A LOT CLOSER TO 405 ESPECIALLY SINCE I AM NOT A JUICER. TAKE AWAY THE JUICE THAT A PRO USES AND WHAT HOW FAST THEIR 405 STRENGTH FALLS...THEY WILL BE LUCKY TO EVEN BENCH 315 ONCE!!!!

dude if you think that their is a huge diff/between flat bench and incline bench then you are retarded..95% of anyone that trains chest can flat bench more then they can incline bench..With that in mind, if Melvin is flat benching 405 for 10 reps and then jumping right into(super setting) incline with 405 for 10 reps then you are a complete idiot to think that he shouldn't be able to atleast flat 405 for 20...I say their is no way he would be able to...Thats it...
-
by the way i'll use as much profanity as i fking want...You just keep hitting the Caps lock button...by the way you do realise that supersetting is doing two excerises with basically no rest inbetween right? Because if he is resting between the two exercises, then its a fact that he is not supersetting...
If Melvin can barely knock out 10 reps with 405 on the flat bench and then he ran over and tried to do 405 on an incline bench...He would be lucky to knock out 1 or 2 reps..It would be impossible for him to do more...The two movements are almost the same exercise...
Hope this helps
-
Oh my god, I am so offended by you Wombat. All that profanity! I mean, my god man, FKING is like the worst word in the English language! Jesus, I don't think I can recover....
Hahahaha, FKING isn't even close to fucking.
-

Oh yeah, you compare to to pro.. ::) Queerbait.

Now I see your problem...You are STUPID and don't know a thing about weight training....OK...It is clear to me now. Get over your JEALOUSY/LOVE HATE REALTIONSHIP WITH MELVIN and get to the gym. i am sure you will find some guys in there who will do the 405 bench and incline in a superset fashion and it will shut you up once and for all.
Come back to the board afterward and be prepared to apologize.
-
Hahaha, sure there are.
The way you say it, there should be at least, 2 or 3 guys in every gym that can superset 405 hahahaha

Alright Samson I'll tell ya what...With the millions of video streams that are out on the web...I would think that you would have no problem finding one that has ANYONE supersetting flat bench/incline bench of 405 for 10 reps on each exercise...Oh ya and find one that doesn't have the DJ spot(you know the one with no hands on the bar)..
Fact of the matter is you wont find any because they don't exist..And you know it...Oh ya and no smith machine B.S. ---regular bench and reg. incline...Their isn't a pro bodybuilder that has ever existed that could do 405 on the bench and then do 405 on the incline (supersetting-zero rest)for 10 reps on each exercise...
I don't know what planet you live on the think that these guys do this type of sh t... Surely you could atleast find a video with some powerlifter out there that pulled off something like this..
Talk to me when you get that video up and running and then i'll apologize....Maybe you could email DJ and have him do this feat...But tell him to have his spotter keep his hands off the bar ok
-
A good question would be has anyone ever witnessed somebody do 405 for twenty on a flat bench?
-
I am actually 270 knuckle head daont hate cause you wish you could do it. ;)
Melvin...I don't hate...I guess that I just get offended because even at 270, it still sounds impossible...I don't mean to take anything away from you or your accomplishments, but don't offend us with that type of claim...405 for ten on the incline is an incredible lift, let alone banging out ten on the flat bench before you attempt it...
-

I think Scott Mendelsohn could get it. But not without a big effort. Kennelly too.
Rychlak couldn't get it for 8.

I've seen i guy do close to that...But i've never seen anyone do 10 reps with 405 and then run over and do 10 more reps with zero rest...
I did spot Ted Arcedi one time down at Andrew power gym in NH and he did 495 for 10 like it was nothing...But he is a power lifter...
-
That's what makes it that much more absurd sounding...A powerlifter maybe..."Some of the best chest workouts of my career happened back at Golds gym in Venice when I used to train with Chris Cormier. We would superset flat barbell presses with incline barbell presses, back to back with no rest in between, getting ten reps on each with 405.Those were the days! I still do it occasionally..." I would love to know when the last time you did this was Melvin...

Ted Arcidi is easily one of the strongest RAW benchers of all time, like top 5 IMO.

IT IS NOT ME WITH THE PROBLEM OF BELIEVING THAT A PRO BODYBUILDER WITH 280 POUNDS OF MASS AND A TON OF JUICE CAN SUPERSET 405.....IT IS YOU!!! SO YOU FIND THE VIDEO. AND IF YOU CAN'T FIND THE VIDEO DOES THAT MEAN THAT NO ONE CAN DO IT? OR DOES THAT MEAN NO ONE HAS BOTHERED TO VIDEO TAPE IT?.....STOP HATIN'
