Damn Mike, I knew you were a big dude but 400+ wow!  Don't see too many PL'ers that big.  I get up into the 308 class and I'm not feeling too good.  The 275 class is what I like the best.

Im sitting 370 right now and should hit a 600 plus raw in contest this June, hoping to qualify for the WPC Worlds in West Palm Beach in Nov. I won the WPC worlds in 2012 in Las Vegas with a 560 something cant remember was 384 at that contest. Then hit the 578 in July of this year tried 603 about the same time in a sanctioned meet and missed it.

I'm up and down on my bodyweight all depends on how I feel, some years I like to look down and see my dick others I dont care. I've been as high as 422 and as low as 253 all in the last 5 yrs. Would like to get to 300 and hit a tested/clean 600 raw.

Wolfe,

Were you born strong - meaning - did you exhibit great strength at an early age? Serious question. Your strength is amazing, drugs or not. Just curious about the genetic part.

I saw 'raw fish' in the thread title, yet I dont' see any sushi in the thread.

I call that an infraction for teasing.

I'm 5 foot 10 like it all depends on how I feel on what my bodyweight is. One season i might be a 275er then the next a SHW again. It is really easy for me to go up but here lately coming down is kinda tough.

Wolfe,

Were you born strong - meaning - did you exhibit great strength at an early age? Serious question. Your strength is amazing, drugs or not. Just curious about the genetic part.

I was not born strong in high school i was a chubby fat kid that tried to be a skater, then a punk, then a wanna be wigger and then my junior and senior years I tried to play football at which I sucked. i was not athletically gifted at all, still aint!

It was not til I was out of high school I found my love for bench pressing. I'm built perfectly for it and excelled at it once I learned how to train for it. But no I've never been one who was naturally strong I have had to bust my ass to get here.

....good question..bench only do you compete full meets.

I have done 2 full meets back in the mid 90's but when my bench got more then my squat and pull I said fuck it and just benched. I did just pull a solid 555 in contest a couple weeks at a charity push pull meet in Ft Wayne Ind. My best raw pull ever is 585 and best raw squat in contest is 605. But my squat now is like 405ish I just don't squat. I started again a few months ago since I own my own gym figured I'd give it a go again did a deep 405 for 3 and said SCREW THIS I'll do leg presses.

the one guy i know who could bench 5 plates could barely squat 4, strange how people can be so strong on that movement

for me the sqt/dead are pretty easy to rack up numbers even if your an average guy strength wise, ive always been a shit presser and always look in awe at anyone doing more than 3 plates

I hate the feel of the bar on my shoulders, literally I hate it. I can not seem to get comfortable under the bar. As for the dead lift I love to pull I'm just to damn lazy to load the bar, if I could hire a staff of midgets to load and unload my bar I would pull all day long.

At that height and weight, can't be good on the heart and overall health :-\

Good luck though!

At 275, BBW would probably look pretty good. Incredible upper body.
