Alex is the man. I do 225 lbs on that exercise for about 6, but my back rest is on a higher incline and I bring the bar down to nose level. Still, that's some crazy weight. I'd love to see a clip of my legendary friend, the great Superstar rep out with 3 plates on that exercise 8)

he said that was an old video when he weighed around 230 and he's over 250 now. besides, even benching 275 would be a challenge for most people, let alone military press with bad form. i got 205 for a set of 5 yesterday down to the chin and i know i couldn't do 275 even if i only came down to the bridge of my nose or my forehead.

I've trained w/Alex before, I can attest to his strength. Especially in the Shoulders and Chest, he's a strong son of a bitch!

And 275 even with suspect form is a feat that not many can say they've acheieved.

And lastly, once the weight goes up the form will suffer a bit, so I can tell u that before that last set of 6, he was reppin out 185 and 225 for full clean reps.

hmm, is Alex23 natural? I dont think he is- (nothing wrong with that) I go to 225 for 6, and im natural. 275 is a entirely another story though! good stuff.

Not the least bit impressed. Cannot imagine why this was considered worthy of posting on YOUTUBE. His "military" is more incline and he hardly did 1/2 reps.
   I myself in the incline doing full range of motion reps with one second pause have done 5 reps with 315 before.
   I never really went that heavy on the military press though, mostly 225 for reps and sets, shoulders are not designed to last very long when taxed with heavy poundages in that exercise. Some guys are better built to handle the heavy weights and can do this better than those lacking the right frame.
