Title: Scott Mendleson has benched 1,100 lbs in training/practice
Post by: Submissionfytr on May 19, 2013, 04:41:56 PM

From his mouth, after his brother first told me. I was in Flordia and was with his brother for a BJJ tournament, and he told me his official bench press is over a 1000 (I believe like 1040 ish?) but he's hit 1,100 in training. I know, bench shirt, blah blah, but still a decade ago when Anthony Clark was all fat and like an elephant, put up 800 and some change in a shirt it was such a big deal. So even in a shirt, who else is hitting over 1000? Plus he's hit over 700 RAW so his lifts deserve respect IMO. Greatest bencher of all time?

Thats an insane lift. On the other hand, I met him a couple of years ago and his head looked like it was ready to explode. I fear for this guys health.

Bench shirts are for______________. There is no fuckin point. It's like saying I benched 20 000 lbs, with a crane. Or 2000 lbs with a tire jack. Or, 1000 lbs with a spring loaded elastic band tied to the ceiling. Stupid.
