that's nothing, Lee was doing it at 19 so that means he must have been doing 315 at 14. ::)

please, most getbiggers are capable of this lift in their offseason.  as most are on their precontest diets right now, this lift is not practical. if you havent won a WBBG Mr Olympus contest, maybe you shouldnt post here!  Excuse me while I have my 50 Hoffmans liver tabs now.

all these claims and no proof as of yet, somebody on here must have some proof of a legit 405 seated barbell press behind neck.

I remember years ago Mike Francois said he routinely worked up to 365 behind the neck with a freebar; although again there is zero proof.   


Kovacs was nothing but hype and then fizzled out......I don't by any of his printed lifts. 


I think Levrone's 8 plates on the Smith is the closest we're gonna get.

i would believe francois' poundage claims before any other bber.

the guy trained at louie simmonds' gym so you better believe they would have kicked his ass if he made shit up re poundage claims.

the fact that he trained there in the first place whilst competing in bbing just goes how humble the man was. westside guys didn't have much respect at all for bbers back then (do they now?) and they certainly mocked francois, but in the end they respected him for backing his shit up.

mike could easily trained at much more friendly ground like golds or something and had everyone tell him how wonderful he was.

guys like yates and francois are sorely missed from bbing.

It probably has been done by loads of people - the difficult part is finding the videos - I mean FFS the barbarian borthers were doing 365 so there's bound to be dozens of strongmen out there who could do the 405.

Standing is harder than seated IMO, it's just that they've never really incorporated it into the WSM otherwise they would be tons of videos.

         SF, Jeff Maddy is 6-2 and weighs 490.  405 is roughly 80% of his bodyweight.

The guy may be full of shit, but if anybody is close to 400 seated military, it will be a huge ass powerlifter.  I think looking at his other lifts may be a clue as far as his credibility.
