He is everything that one would aspire to be in this game.

A true natural freak.

Brad's a strong dude no doubt.  That being said, it never ceases to amaze me how many people are absolutely 100% clueless on the bench press being such a popular and simple exercise.

I fear his grip will fail, and he will drop the weight on him.

I have bench pressed 345 at around 182-lb [actually, my current weight], and I was worried another 20-lb on that, and a little mistake could impale me under the weight.

I hit a sloppy 485 at 217 and felt strong.

The best in my city for anyone under 285-300+ was Dan Skaarup who bench pressed 475 at 205 after hitting an official/contest lift of 455!

If true, your lift was amazing.

It was more of a decline on a flat bench. It wasnt a legit bench by any standard. Other than I was on a flat bench when I pressed it up.

I'm surprised you haven't done a bodyweight double bench press just to have said you've done it.

From that angle they would.

You must be one weak and frail twat.

Let me guess. Your heaviest bent-row is 115 for six.

And you trashed your brittle little cheesedick back doing this monster feat.
