Other than a slightly high back arch I would say his lifts are good. Damn strong kid. I am 6'2 at age 20 the best I could do was around 350. My best aver was 445 for a single at #225's. My lift style was not to far from his. the crab position is what most call it, the drive position. 3 points, ass shoulders, press up press hard. I only hope he goes easy on his shoulders. I paid the price once I hit my 30's.I've since opted for a more bodybuilder approach and more flat back presses. More reps and sets, less weight yet working up the progressive overload ladder.I am 37 years old now and can feel muscle growing, nice feeling.
I tell you what.There's not one lifter in the whole world, juiced or natural, who will put up 800 lbs raw. I don't care how much he bounces the weight or arches his back. It's not happening.So tell me this...How is 800 lbs with bounce, arched back and whatever, NOT impressive?When nobody can do it?-Hedge
bullshit, let's see pics.
hey guys im the 20 year old in the video .... i see alot of guys impreesssed from what i did and encouraging me and i also see alot of ppl talking shit.... Im not doing these reps perfect form(quick touch n goes)... Then again i dont know who pauses 10 rep sets....When i do pauses i do singles.... And I have paused 500 pounds and benched it easy before.... Im going to compete raw soon wanna bench lows 500's ... I have done an ugly 540 touch n go after 435 for 8 .. front delts were thrashed also when i did this...And the flat back comment... I try my best to arch becuz i compete in powerlifting and i take the best possible set up to lift the most weight possible..I could take a narrower grip and go flat back and hit 500 still...yes ! but for what for all the 135 pound flat back internet warrior benchers? Im not trying to plz everyone..... I lift for myself and I like what i do... I really enjoy it... All the negativety is pointless by some of you bitter ppl....There are much more important things in life other than bashing some one for no reason....constructive critisism is fine but sitting there and talkin crap doesnt do anything for anyone.... I mean damn im going raw! Im drug free!!! thats dumb i wouldnt even know how to take roids....Anyone i can positively influence or help respond to my post and ask questions... maybe you can help me and ill try my best to help you.... I also have a squat video
You re a phenom! When i was 20 i could do 225 for 8!
225 for 8?I couldn't. -Hedge
You cant bench 225 for 8?
JEREMY HINES HOW THA FUCS YOU BENCH AND SWAQUT all that weight when you just a kid wif jelly rolls. i dont get it man, something is majorly fishy. you benched 500-540? hell im way bigger than you and natural and bench 315 for a perfect one rep. so you should be 35% bigger than me? and what you squat 600? i could maybe do 315 couple reps all the way down sexy man form.
Perhaps because he trains heavy.You train light and long.-Hedge
