[mesmorph78]

didnt even get one rep....
not even one the spotters hand was on the bar from the start
NOT EVEN ONE REP
pure ego lifting at its finest
lighten the weight and bench it yourself

come on man, i know you hate white bodybuilders but you have to admit that was impressive, it's not like she was pulling on the bar with all her might or anything, he handled that weight fairly cleanly, my only problem is that it's not 545 like someone else quoted but 455.

blue = 20kg or 44lbs
yellow = 15kg or 33lbs
bar = 20kg or 44lbs
collars are .5kg or 1.1lbs

dude are u nuts marcus is one of my fav bbers... why do u think i hate white bbers??? u are dead wrong there...
far as im concerned and this goes across the board if your spotter has his or her hands.. omn the bar from the first rep .. you didnt do it i dont care who u are 120 lbs or 300lb. trust me just her keeping the bar moving is helping A LOT you as lifter should know this.... ask onlyme.. i remember him stating the same thing as well...
he didnt do one single rep

what i mean is that at least 90 percent of that weight is going to him and his muscles, with that type of weight AND that grip it's very very impressive.

[mesmorph78]

yes im suprised he didnt rip his chest with that wiiiiiiiiide grip
... if you think he did 90% what he should do is ligten the load by 10% and push it....
that is EGO training...
i can bench 405....
i could put 20lbs more lbs on the bar and have a spotter help from the first rep but i know that would be bullshit because i know i didnt really bench the weight
..
i have seen dudes in the gym doin the same thing.... spotter pulling 315 off them
i then step in and say let me spot you next set...
then i ask how much are u shooting for.... BEFORE i touch the bar.... one guy said 4
I said... try and get one...

what do u think happened the bar stayed on his chest and sisnt move till i yanked it off him
so like i said i am a HARD lifter...
and if the spotter hands touches it .. u didnt do that rep

Terrible triceps.

translation=you couldn't bench shit after years of training just like the majority of guys, this is the most common excuse for guy who don't bench because they're not good at it and it's just too hard, "i don't bench at all anymore because it's too tough on the shoulders and i don't want to risk a pec tear so i do giant sets of dips, flyes, db inclines and cable crossovers".

Bob Chick has mentioned numerous times that the barbell bench press is the number 1 exercise related to pec tears.. he's stated that he prefers dumbells or something else than the barbell bench.. and he's not a small guy.

I still do bench press but I prefer dumbells myself - I normally do flat, incline, decline presses.. I avoid dips, they fuck with my neck.

It is pretty hard to tear your pec on chin ups.

Its most common chest exercise therefore most tears etc will occur.

Same way a quad tear will probaly occur most times squatting

Actually it means that i do not like flat BB bench therefore i do not do it and have actually seen improvements in my chest since dropping them.

And i could care less how much i lift. I don't do powerlifting...i do bodybuilding.

Nice try though.

ruhl was the biggest pro ever*

he fixed that chest?
look at his grip, it's way too wide, and with the poundage he uses, it's a miracle he doesn't tear it every session
go a little closer grip ruhl 


You are seriously trying to give one of the biggest freaks ever advice.  I think i just pissed in my underwear laughing so hard!!!!!

You forgot he's 19, has never actually trained in a gym, has NO experience in anything, yet he squats almost 600, weighs 240 at 8% bodyfat, 18" arms, is a model, and give training and diet advice.  He has truly been taking what Goodrum and Apenis have been taking.  And to top it off he tries to convince everyone he isn't gay.  The guy has more issues than National Geographic.

I cant believe he actually said that he could probably beat you in the cage.  I am sure he would run the whole time.

I guarantee you that would be the only he could beat me.  And sooner or later I would get ahold of him.

Typical excuse for weak bitches.

Damn...

[affeman]

I dont see how the hell he doesnt blow out his delts and/or rotator cuff with that wide ass grip he always uses. He could bench more than that with a close grip approach.

What makes me worry even more is how he arches his back and that his butt takes off from the bench in every single rep. Holy shit, that's one hell of an unhealthy form....

[Mars]

appearantly it works.

[jon cole]

suicide grip of course...

[Nordic Beast]

exactly, maybe one day he would crack top 7 at the olympia once 

umm he got 5th at the 2004 Olympia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
