Not going to comment on the fake plates. That spotter seemed to be easing gravity a bit though.
-
Wasn't this guy's Father a Police Officer years ago...? So he turmed out a bit mental just like his Pappy....

LOL, why is grown man doing something like that ???
Everyone with any 'serious' experience understands those would be massive lifts and there is no way he really performed them with the weights claimed.
Clown.
-
Completely fake. Anyone who knows human strength and elite numbers knows this.
The guy's a fraud.
-
Haha, from that video I got suggestion of "gym idiots" video and damn what kind of people there are at gyms these days ;D
Gyms are nicer than in my days but people more retarded haha
-
I like how at around 38-39 seconds, he moves the barbell from side to side. You're not doing that with 675 lbs.
-
There is no way that is real.
He would have the world record in his weightclass, BY FAR!
His official power lifting numbers are not near.
-
He would be elite in much heavier weight class, with gear on... Dude's a phone.. A big, fat phony...
-
Even if you are fooling someone, why are you okay with that?
-
I know Elgin is not everybody's cup of tea. And these are hundreds of years old too so I risk Lincoln shooting Nixon on the moon...
BUT - if you like to hear people roasting Chad Dingleberry, Elgin's channel repeatedly takes a pop at his 'form'....

If u are going to make it believable why doesn't he do 495 for 3 which is already very impressive, instead does 675 hahaha ::)
These guys are real retards

bevo rumor has it, that brads fans are also levrone fans
-
Isn't the raw bench record just over 700? There can't be many men walking the earth that can even bench 600 let alone 675x3.
-
bevo rumor has it, that brads fans are also levrone fans
Yep, go figure, a bunch of idiots
Rumor has it and flex wheeler confirmed he is making a comeback for the classic bbing show at 210 pounds.... and those fans are equally like levrone's, cheering him on even though he said he has one kidney
-
This is actually what a 675 pound bencher performs and looks like. I'm sure Fortress remembers this guy, Glen Chabot.
-
Definitely fake,just wants views on YouTube so makes outrageous claims.

The logistics of bringing fake plates to the gym? Come on, seriously?

Yep. Guy was one of the pioneers of the "new wave" of elite bench pressers. From what I recall, he was a bit of a tough guy. I was backstage at an Arnold powerlifting/strongman event many years ago and remember a ruckus when him and another dude were threatening to throw down (the other guy was fearing for his life).
Obviously, the man was hugely intimidating. My bud, the great Ed Coan, calmed the waters. He garners such respect that even hothead Chabot backed off.

How many times do we need to go over this. The plates are 100% real. They don't make fake crappy hexagon style 24 hour fitness plates that I have ever seen or been able to find. Not to mention trying to carry them around with you and bring into the gym. If you're already strong, a spotter helping the whole way down and up makes a mega difference. It's all about the spot and don't even begin with the spotter can't help that much. I don't know what to tell you if you believe that. Bradley Martin already demonstrated this doing the exact same weight with a spotter with about the exact same effort. Brad is very strong. No where near 675 raw bench strong, but very strong.

this is the same bradley that wouldnt get on the scale at an expo or have his arms measured?
-
this guy is brad's father he loves bbc just like brad does.
WTF ???
LOL :D

its the same plates all the time despite it being different gyms.
his income is derived from youtube hits, carrying around some fake weights is par for the course
-
there's even a site for buying fake plates
fakeweights.com

Bar just doesn't bend enough for me. After 4 plates on each side that bar starts to have a bit of bend when you un-rack it.

WTF ???
LOL :D

Hi Brad!
-
THIS is 675x3 legit bench press:
by the 2nd world best bench-presser of all time. :D
Brad who?
-
I was at a meet with Dr. JM Blakely back in the late 90s and all he managed to press shirt free was 450 @ 220 and he was one of the elite benchers in the world at that time
His official best equipped bench was over 700 pounds

lol wtf, i doubt that guy can even see his own lil weasel

Eric Spoto lives here in Vegas and I used to train occasionally at the EOSfitness him and Efferding went to. To see a guy legit bench 700 is nothing like what is going on in Castleberrys vids. Spoto would have 3 guys all around him just in case something happened, and he's twice as big as that tool in the video.
Anyone who believes that's a legit 675 bench in that video is an idiot....

Exactly. Liquid C has never seen these plates before, nor has he been able to find them. So they don't exist.
And if they did why would someone bring them into the gym? They wouldn't. Because they don't exist. But if they did exist they'd be used for different reasons, fake totals would definitely not be one of those reasons.
Also Brad is strong, but no where near 675 bench strong. Even though the video shows him benching it for reps. With plates that are real as we already established.
Lol. Great troll job.

hell yeah you got that right, that is dangerous

I know someone who trains at the same gym as Brad. He says the plates are 100% real.

A few people have confirmed this. I used to think he used fake plates as well but it seems that the weights are legit. He's strong as hell.

Of course they are. Glad to see there are some people with common sense. Anyone who actually understand bench pressing at higher weight levels knows that a spotter especially holding the bar through the whole process can allow tremendous amounts of weight to be lifted beyond what you could normally do. No serious powerlifters have called Brad out accusing him of using fake plates, just that he is using a spotter which no where comes close to counting. While I have no issues with Brad as a person, his arrogance and smoke and mirrors lifting as in this case rubs me the wrong way big time as it is the polar opposite of what I believe in. However I am not going to accuse him of doing something he is not.

I enjoy casually outlifting the permabulker "powerlifter" type gym rats like this fucktard that follow you around trying to one-up you, all with shit form and with 20%+ bf.
-
Dude should be mopping up in the powerifting circuit, easier to pimp his youtube vids if he had legit comped lifts.
-
I trained at the same gym as Glen Chabot.........saw him do 650 for a triple but it was legit unlike Dingleberrys "lifts" ! ::)

Fucking hilarity reigns supreme. LOL :D
Thanks brother!

Liquid it sounds as if you're familiar with weights and the lifting of them.
What do you think of Brads spotters technique for a world record attempt, was it good or bad?

I like this bra a lot.

What a girl this guy is

Lol, well personally I never really used a spotter unless I was doing less than 4 reps. Even then very, very rarely did the spotter ever need to touch the bar at all as I never did forced reps and was good at knowing what I could and couldn't do. No bands, chains, slingshots, or anything like that either. Not saying they can't be effective I just never liked them nor the pain they were to setup. In fact I would get pissed if a spotter touched the bar when I didn't need it as it technically meant I couldn't tell if I did the rep or not. Just my opinion, but overuse of the spotter, especially if he has his hands on the bar the whole way through doesn't help you lift more weight as in get stronger and gets you mentally dependent on the spotter. Power benching requires a lot of explosive power and speed, especially at the bottom portion of the lift "raw" anyway. A pull from the spotter at the bottom of the lift dramatically increases this. I would be much more impressed for example if Brad just loaded the bar with 500 or so and did it for one clean rep butt on the bench with no spot. That would be very impressive by itself since being so lean he in reality would probably be once depleted in the 220 weight class. An impressive raw bench at that weight, or any weight technically.
I've only actually seen him compete one personally in a charity bench competition probably 10-12 years ago or so. 10-12 years or so ago he hit 455 touch and go cleanly and failed 2x at 475. Although he is into youtube/instagram, I really feel he should compete as it would make him much more respectable in the strength/powerlifting community and probably increase his audience even more which anyone who knows him his # of instagram followers is one of the most important things to him. Even if he under comp rules isn't as strong as he is in his videos. Besides that the few times I have talked to him he has been cool with me.
Oh and the sliding back and forth of the bar easily. That is true 675 doesn't slide very easy side to side on most benches. However there is a simple explanation in the type of bench he is using. It is some crappy Cybex model that some gyms have around here and I have used before for years. Instead of the standard square shaped J pegs, it uses removable round straight steel pegs at a slight angle. The pegs can be pulled out and put in different holes on the bench to adjust the bench height. The bar is only in contact with a very small amount of surface area on each smooth peg making it very easy to slide back and forth. After benching on one of these for years and then switching to a newer gym with the square J style pegs one of the very first things I noticed was how much more difficult it was to slide any loaded bar back and forth.
