Title: Strongest bencher on Getbig? 600+ ?
Post by: Swede! on February 21, 2012, 06:30:02 AM
 As a man who did singles, on the bench, with 610 lbs weighing 282 lbs, I can attest that his claim is possible. On the flat bench, my 1 rep max is now up to 625 lbs. Just because you're weak and pathetic, doesen't mean everybody else is.

 Guys, this is seriously the strongest shit you'll ever try. I swear, taking this shit orally makes snorting coke seem like a cup of coffee in comparison. I cannot even imagine how strong this shit would feel if I snorted it. The reason why I don't do it is because snorting amphetamines can actually give you a stroke almost instantly.

  I was used to snorting Ritalin for fun, so I thought I knew what to expect when I tried this for the first time. Boy, was I wrong!!!! I took 10 mg the first time, and it made the 100 mg of Ritalin I was used to snort at once seem like a cup of coffee compared to the 100 mg of Ritalin. It was 3:00 AM and I was exhausted so I swallowed it and forgot about it. About 15 minutes latter BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM M!!!!!!!!! It was like my heart was about to explode from my chest and I felt like I had just won the lottery, and my eyes were literally glued to my eye sockets. Know the feeling you had the first time you fucked a woman and she dropped her panties? The feeling of excitment and happiness is 10 X greater.

  This shit is literally 10 X more powerful than Ritalin and 100 X more powerful than weight-loss stimulants like diethylpropion. It is the most fucked up shit ever and I love it!!!

whenever I meet people who claim a high bench I always ask them "how many plates on the bar is that?", that's right, they don't know, they've never even seen 610lbs before.
Title: Re: Strongest bencher on Getbig? 600+ ?
Post by: Fortress on February 21, 2012, 10:26:00 AM
There are VERY, VERY few who can press 600 or more WITHOUT A BENCH SHIRT.

Even drugged to the max, a raw/classic press in this range is highly unlikely.

I have been in many gyms with lots of very huge guys and I have never, not once, seen someone bench that kind of weight.

That shit is probably 1 out of 20 million people can do that... And that may be overboard.

Truth

A VERY strong presser, gassed, might lift late fours or even into the fives, but to get towards a 600 is CRAZY strong.

never seen that much weight put up live in person. like what was mentioned, when you ask these bs claimers how many plates that is, or vice versa how much weight is 5, 6, or 7 plates a side they have no idea because they've never seen it or done it.

600 cant be that rare.  It seems everytime I meet some in public after I hit the gym they are telling me how they could bench 5-600 pounds in high school.  That or thier brothers, wives, older sisters 2nd husband was way bigger and stronger than me and never touched a bar in his life.

For about 4 months I would try to go past 5 plates. Every other workout, I always menaged to get 5 plates up for a single and with a half bottle ephedrine pre workout I would even do a double, but as soon as the 10 lb plate goes on both side- the bar just comes crashing down, SO I just gave up, I was convinced that it was my absolute limit, but did mange 545 on the decline. 6plates is certainly a different world

a guy at work once said i aint shit compared to his brother

"he pushes two hundred and his arms are twice the size your arms"


"push what? bench press?"


"leg press....but of course he HAS been training for about 20 years" (pre-emptive strike against steroid accusations touch)



wow a 200kilogram leg press, watch out...

I trained at one of the top powerlifting gyms for about 5 years.

The most i saw anyone bench RAW was 590 pounds with a pause. Most of the 300+ pound guys could do reps with 405, but anything over 500 pounds seemed to be a big limit for 99% of the guys i met and competed against.

The strongest benchers i've met were Ryan Kennely and Tiny Meeker. I got to train with Tiny for about 6 months and learned a lot about lockouts with him. He would do insane lockouts with up to 800 pounds and then hold the bar as long as he could. I know his RAW max was over 600 at this point but he never maxed out in the gym when i was training with him. I watched him close grip press 495 for 10 reps without a spot.

Even with a bench shirt anything over 600 is very rare.

the only person I saw bench 6 plates a side is this guy who does strongman competitions, Louis-Philippe Jean.
He trains at my gym.

he does standing military press with 4 plates a side also  :-X
people claim he squats regularly 9 plates a side, but I never saw him do it myself

fucking monster of a man, he claims he weights 350 at about 6 ft 2

you know what I think? that blacks are only good at sports that come naturally

I would not say "natural" so much as "physical attributes". Whether it's agility, speed, power.

Where the playing field is more mental, it's not the case (This is not a bash on black people).

But the black community does not do anything with Fencing, archery, things of that nature.

Maybe it's just because they are not exposed, but I think that Jimmy the Greek was 100 percent correct and he happened to get roasted for it.

People can't handle the truth.

600 raw for sure is quite rare, 600 with a shirt though is pretty common nowadays.  I have a very good raw bench press, but everything is relative.  Some people are just made to bench press just as some people are made to deadlift or squat.  I can't raw squat what I can raw bench press, and it shouldn't be that way but it is.   :-\

That's true.

Today 600 pounds in a shirt is getting pretty common. The last power lifting meet i went to had 10 guys over 600 pounds, but only a few of them didn't bomb out.

Whites of northern European descent generally are built thicker and have more propensity towards absolute strength.

Look at the heritage of peoples of the north versus peoples of southern parts of the globe. Northmen had to build sturdy shelter with heavy lumber, rock and such. Those of the south built shacks out of branches and leaves and ant shit.

And look at the diets, too.

And the weather.

Blacks have leaner physiques, generally, and more rounded muscle bellies, but their joints, etc. are small and relatively frail.

Blacks who are muscular look like they weigh, like, 250, and usually tip the scales at much, MUCH less. Heck, Flex Wheeler looked 290 on stage and was around 230. Case in point.

Their frames are balsa wood whereas the Vikinig man's is oak.

Id agree, they seem to excel where their physical attributes allow them to, but seem to have a tougher time with activites that require a high degree of mental discipline/mental toughness.
