Title: Going Raw!!!!
Post by: bigbadwolfe on December 25, 2008, 07:55:29 PM
Hey,

Just out of curiousity what do all the Get Biggers consider a big RAW bench for a 275 pound guy?

I'm doing a contest in March and plan on being 275 and going raw. My best Raw in contest is 600 but I weighed over 400 pounds then. I'm hoping for something in the high 5's by March and then going from there. What does the Peanut Gallery think is a good number?

Mike, most of us on here bench well into the 600's. You're gonna have to really impress us.

You should always wear protection with a chick, especially since you're married, don't want some broad bringing a Little Wolf to your door one day. ;)

Mike, I think you are good for the same 600+ at the lighter body weight once you stabilize at that body weight.

Mike,

DONT DO IT! Competing gear deficient gives you the gay! Do that, and your wife is gonna be PISSED. Also, you promised to not compete again until you were 242. In gear. ;D

Legit lifts with your butt FLAT on the bench, touch your chest with no extreme bounce and lock out without the spotters hands anywhere near touching the bar.  I know here on getbig 500lbs raw is an average bench at best, but hey not everyone can be as strong as the beast that we have on here.

I have dumbells that weigh as much as some of the ammounts being thrown about here. I might not be able to bench 750 after 20 roofies.... Maybe
Do you pop roofies before a cage match?
