Satir (some pro from Turkey) benched 630 for 8 reps.   ::)

Yeah for real... I wonder if he inclines 500 for 6 and squats 1000 for 10...hell why not do 1 up on LEVRONE and curl 150 lb dumbells... ::) ::)

I just remembered a guy at my gym that benched 800 for15.  I'll never forget it.  BTW that's not world class. ;D

Ha ha  ....muscle mag once claimed Greg kovacs did 725 on the bench for 6 reps.......I was amazed because the year before I was training at the old World Gym in Venice and he could barely bench 495 for 4 .[ which is great BTW ] I would love to interveiw the guy now and ask him what his real lifts were actually at his best now that he doesn't have a contract to live up to . He a huge man .....I mean he was super big ,I was 290ish and he made me look like a a bean pole .....but it was sad he could barely breath .....site inject marks everywhere .....track marks from  nubaine addiction [ala tom prince ]all down his forearms......it was sad .....He used be friends with a porn star named Harmony Grant that is a friend of mine .[cute and cool for a porn star .....as far as they go ....lol]  She told me lots of stories of how messed up the poor man really got . Sad ,I heard he is really nice .Seemed cool when I met him on a couple of occasions ........I hope he is healthy and happy . Last I heard he was living with his parents ........He was huge , and very strong .but muscletech tech just destroyed the man's rep  with their outlandish claims

Didn't Muscletech once claim that Dennis James benches 585 for 3 reps on incline, and then DJ himself came on the Mayhem boards and kept defending it saying that he can incline 585 for 3, even though he doesnt come close to that in his videos  ::)

LMAO...i'm pretty sure they meant 630kg...which is only 286lbs. That's more like it! ;D

Hope this helps ;D ;D ;D

musclemag is insulting to anyone who has a shred of knowledge about bbing and nutrition.

I'm baffled and in awe of how ridiculous some of their claims are and especially about how retarded their stories are, i read an article recently about training shoulders and it contained a really cheesy metaphor about the gym owner playing chess and paralleing that with advising one of his members on training...yes it was really that bad :-\

Hussein Rezazadeh couldb't bench that much.. And Hussien is among the strongest men in the world.  ::)

Scott Mendelson couldn't either.

This Turkish clown and the imaginary lifters in Big Wigg's mind are stronger than some of the world's proven record holders in strength.
