Branch Warren's claims in latest MD

[Royalty]

in the Johnnie Jackson and Branch Warren shoulder training article Johnnie claims that he saw Branch shoulder press 405 for 20 reps, what do you think?

That was a misprint

bump.

[badlad]

finally....someone gets it...

Who gives a shit. He can outlift most if not all here.

And it's not really Branch's claim if Jackson said it now is it???

Well anyone who's seen their training footage can tell that the word 'lift' is used rather losely, since they are even worse than Ronnie for form. They throw the weight like a third of the way up for 6-8 like the man said. Great genetics though to be able to train like this and still look like bodybuilders.

And respect to Branch for saying aesthetic=small, lol

c'mon man. i saw levrone do 405 for 6 reps and he was one of the strongest in the sport. 20 seems way out there.

 the 405 for 6 was done  in a smith machine rite just like in m3? and branch could never shoulder press 405 for 20...

Damn this thread is a year old.     But No I say bullshit on ANYONE shoulder pressing 405 for 20.

all the reps were heavily assisted by spotter, the spotter tries hard not to show he is grimmacing but he is.

Levrone didnt get a single rep at 405 bnp.

The funniest thign i EVER SAW WAS THE Matawan muscle machine mo elbanousi post a pciture at mayhem, with 405 bnp on a weighted bar smith,

there is now way he could even hold that weight never midn press it, he claimed he got 2 reps the fucking lyer.

davidpaul: you didnt understand what i meant  .i didnt claim levrone did 6 in mm3 with 405..i asked if it was done on a smith machine? yeah i remember he did like 3 assisted reps on the smith machine in mm3 (black dude spotting him). i should have expressed myself more clearly..smith machine is easier than free weight as you know.

after watching the way most pros train on that bfto 2005 i get a what the hell whats that? i couldnt beileve how fast johhnie and branch were pressing, they were doing half reps with so much speed. if they did 405 right for 6reps on incline i think that would be tough for them on the military presses yea ok

[MRMD2003]

slaveboy. iwas the dude in the m3 vid spotting kev. i can assure he got 4 of the 6 reps by himself. 

[oldtimer1]

I don't believe he could do one with a barbell.  I mean touching his upper chest and pushing it out while upright.  What he could do is a half reps that almost resemble an incline bench.
