Nothing dumber than an equipped bench. Shouldn’t count,nobody cares, might as well just have 3 spotters keeping hands on bar the whole time. Raw or nothing.

If it didn't exist, what would fat middle aged men do to feel superior?

this 60-yr old guy benching 460 is much more impressive than fat-guy failing with 550-raw, but "shirt-benching" 1000+ lbs.

Jimmy the Iron Bull Pellechia does not get the credit he deserves for benching.

Everything has its place and everybody has a method that they like. I personally have never even seen those shirts in person.
Nevertheless, that second video is also equipped. And this guy with the voice in the video(is it the same guy who does all these videos or is it a generated vouce) is so annoying that he should get strongly beaten into a bad headache with the wooden handle of an umbrella.

Exactly, and sometimes their bone breaks, they heal, then they do it all over again  ::)

Old dude in the black shirt is a known bencher, and his raw lifts are WICKED impressive for his age, or any age really.

What do you want to bet that the guy with the shirted record would struggle with 460 if he lifted it in the same manner as the dude in the video.

Shitty Shirts Of Peace

No one would have to ever worry about dropping one thouand pounds while benching and getting injured or killed because without the stupid shirts no one would even dare attempt to bench that much.

Can you say this type of assited "lifting" has ruined a once great sport?

Ultra-geared powerlifting is not near as “in” as it was a decade ago.

There was nothing iffy about the lockout on his raw press. He did not lock it out. Still, awesome bench.

The commentator in the video has an intolerable voice/accent.
