So, you have achieved an 800+ lb bench naturally?

EXACTLY

lay off the wolf man. he's always been humble as fuck on these boards and he knows a thing or two about real strength training.

save the gear qs for the gear board. wolfe be a fuckwit to discuss cycles on a public message board. think about it.

wolfe, what type of cardio are you doing? don't tell me you've got your ass dragging that fucking sled around ???

how many pec tears did dave have before he realized that comp benching is mostly tris? how much strength did he lose getting cut?

y'all note the development in dave's tris in the ripped pics? i bet if wolfe got that cut his would probably be better.

Ohh and as for the technique it is VERY VERY helpful in building top end strength and tricep power. I myself prefer Barbell floor presses but I have done dumbbell as well.



have you been in top shape like Dave, badwolfe? or is it impossible :)

not answering for wolfe and i hope he'll come back and play. ;D, but i doubt it very much.

he could get into that condition, but he would be kissing goodbye to the 800 + bench.

the man is just not interested in bbing and i don't blame him at all. he's one of the big dogs in the bench press arena and he has as much potential as anyone to become the alpha wolfe.

he needs to strike while the iron's hot. his peak is not going to last forever so why would he want to go stepping down from the race and give up his biscuits and gravy in the name of vanity.

i suspect he'll come down to 275 just to feel what it's like (prob hasn't been that weight since junior high ;D) and maybe add another 2 years to his life span (god, i'm a prick).

I think I always enjoy it when I see powerlifters dieting and getting cuts. Most people don't think it's possible, cause everytime you mention Powerlifters, people have this image of a huge fat, goateed short dude who has the strenght of a Bull Moose. yes, I think powerlifting is a sport...more of a sport than bodybuilding, if you wanna call it that. If I was a powerlifter, I would get cut in the off season, in my spare time just for the hell of it. is it necessary for their sport, HELL NO

i suspect that may have had something to do with motivating dave to do it, but tate and wolfe are different animals and, as great a p/lifter tate is, he's not in the same league as wolfe.

tate knows that he's just not going to join this elite club with 2 torn pecs. no diss on dave. he is a tremendously strong guy and for the blood, sweat, tears and more than a little grey matter, that this guy shed to get up over 600lbs with fucked up pecs is beyond anything a human being should be capable of.

no doubt about it. Dave wrote an article a few years back about his 600lbs bench quest. I think that was awesome. He has his own way of working around his injuries. Most other P/lifters would quit

not to belabour the point but i think it might have something to do with wolfe being a well known identity living in a country where steroids are kind of...illegal and some knob jockeying narc with nothing better to do but finally take his opportunity to satisfy his life-long fantasy revenge on that big ass wolfe lookalike that stole his lunch money in junior high...and, well, i'm thinking that wolfe and mimnaugh might feel it pertinent to not provide the opportunity on a silver platter. :-\

gee, is that considered a meltdown these days? :-\ ok.

i'm not saying you were dissing him, just that your questions were kind of pointed and locking him ie like a narc might do hence the aggravation from billy.

just playing switzerland is all. ;D

Billy is in a perpetual state of "roid rage" because he is an underachiever who never got anywhere in bb'ing or PLing.  He's just a bitter, bitter "guy" :-X :-\

Joey, Naturally I have Short upper Arms and a Large Chest so Yes I guess Naturally I have benched 800 plus pounds. Now as for what you are digging for I dont discuss your business in an open forum so I guess we wont discuss mine.

I have not been in the shape that Dave is in ever!! But I have dieted down enuf to be able to see my upper abs. My biggest prob with getting that lean is loose skin. This time last yr I was wearing a size 50 pants. Now I'm wearing 40-42. Still out of shape but def alot leaner then this time last Summer.

I have no desire to lean out as much as Dave did. I'll be happy to get my ass down to 38 waist, my wife is not real fond of super lean guys anyways. She likes me where I'm at and is happy I'm alot healthier now. She would like to see me get a little leaner but nothing like Dave. So after this contest on Sunday I'm gonna buckle down some more and get my ass down under 300, might drop as far as 275.

Wolfy!!!

As far as Cardio, right now I am not doing any. Trying to maintain my weight at 330-335 for my contest this Sunday. But with losing the weight all I did was hit the Treadmill for about 20-30 miunte 4 times a week getting my heart rate upto about 130 BPM and holding it there for about 10 minutes then bring it back down.

As for Dave's pec tears I'm not for sure how many he has had. I have only talked to Dave a few times in person. He trains at Elite now which is his own training facility in Ohio. They have some really good lifters over there and it is a great facility from what I have seen and heard.

Hmmm,little man Joey Tito says I underachieved.Imagine that?A guy who won two junior national titles in powerlifting,and was runner up three times at the seniors an underachiever?A guy that then switched over to bodybuilding and won the NPC NEW ENGLAND masters title after not stepping on a bodybuilding platform in 15 years.Then a guy coming back, AFTER fully rupturing his patella tendon and shattering his knee cap, a year later and placing second at the NPC NY METS and placing third at the New Englands.A guy that will be hitting the powerlifting platform again in Oct. after being told he needed a total knee replacement but just continues to train through the pain.Yes sir,thats a sure underachiever.
