I spotted an 18 year old benching 225kg which is just under 500lbs. William Elsby, now about 23 and competes in strongman. Absolute beast
exactly i dont know whats so special there, a frend who doesnt even train like powerlifter and looks almost like bbuilder has won a national show in his class,just went there and pressed 4 and something plates each side and thats it.he was even kinda light.
with decent structure and when young and therefor the joints are still fresh and intact, enough food and steroids, that will give 4 plates each sides for few reps to most guys around 6ft height.
ofc ourse tha fucking jackasses who dont eat right and think the drugs wil do it for them, they will never bench anything.
to develop a semi decent chest one has to be able to do 10reps on incline bench, 10 slow prefect rom reps, this is nothing special at all.and this is couple days of food loading , a fir amount of oral for press day and couple days rest prior away from doing kinda heavy single rep on flat bench.
i cant believ this is posted to be supposedly impressive,lol, i have seen balck guys who didnt even know how to speak, straight from some 4th world shithole , warming up 1 set and then do 10 reps with 3plates like its nothing.
so, a fat kid benched 5plates, holy shit this is groundbreaking
