A 400 pound shirtless bench press by a 165 pound, 15 year old... right

[joelocal]

How much can you bench today?

1. DB everyother week heavy, up to 140 x 5-6

2. Easily 365 for at least 2 or until I start feeling the torn part of my chest pull.....but easily with a pause at the bottom. Sometimes, about once a month or so, I'll do board benchs or benchs with some band resistance.

[The Squadfather]

Yes they do have record books , atleast where I am from in Florida. The record at my school was 505 , I am not sure what the weight of the kid was , but it was back in like 1988 or something but the kid went on to play linebacker at south carolina.

bullshit, let's see proof.

Joe, I think I figured out how you don't lose money when you go on vacation.

You're such a great trainer that all your clients go on vacation at the same and to the same location as you so they don't miss a workout.

You seem obsessed with my business practices.......but yes, some do actually go on vacation the same time I do. Can I answer anymore questions?

So these days, you're about at the same level of strength as when you were 15 years old?


But some 20-30 lbs heavier?

How does that add up?

Ok, I know you've been following these retarted thread's that SF's posted in the years and maybe you either don't remember some of the responses I've given or just don't want to accept them, so I'll go over it ONE MORE TIME.

I have always benched and trained heavy up until 2002 when I tore my chest for the first time, up until then I regularly went to 405 for reps on bench with no problems. After that I was afraid to train heavy on bench or do any straight bar work. About 2 years ago, I went back to bench every other chest workout alternating straight bar with DB's. It worked fine for about a month or so. One day I was doing close grip bench and it tore again.

Today, I rarely bench just for being afraid of ANOTHER tear, I also (as I mentioned in another thread, a partially torn labrum in my right shoulder). No, Zack, the strength is still there, but no more injuries. At my age I would an absolute idiot to train as heavy as I used to.

C'mon, Zack, I know your smarter than that, don't ask stupid questions!

Hedge calls people out for inconsistencies in their posts. THat's his style.

I agree, that was an ignorant question.

No, that was just a dumb question, that's wasn't calling me out.

i'll paraphrase this for you to save everyone from being subjected to reading your bullshit...

basically it says that he's full of shit and can't prove any of his claims as he is a LIAR.

hope this helps.

Biggest lie on GB yet.

[SirTraps]

yep-absolute bullshit-even if it was true for example with a college FB player, itd be a 300+ pound lineman.  Like there is a 17 year old linebacker benching 505

you never know. there's a few freaks out there. at my high school a dude hit 385 as a sophomore weighing around 250 and we were hardly a school known for the bigger dudes. let the kid bounce it off his chest and bring his ass up and i'm willing to bet there are quite a few high schoolers capable of it. there's some genetic freaks out there.

   yep...and a lot of fucking liars too.

I wipe my bunghole with your business practices.

It's just that, back in the day, I worked as a pt, and it's insulting that you claim to not lose money if you, for some reason, can't train clients; the same way it's insulting to some people here that you claim to have had a bigger bench than Ted Arcidi had as a 15 year old.

Do you really have such dedicated trainers that they would  train your clients, charge your rate, then give you ALL the money they made for the session? I'm having a hard time buying that you would inspire that type of selflessness.

I see what you are saying now. Yes, of course I pay my trainers. If they have an opening in their schedules to take some of my clients when I am gone, I pay them for that session. But one on one isn't the only thing we do.

[danielson]

But one on one isn't the only thing we do.

You two are still newlyweds Joe.

I will try and find a link of this for you. I did not witness this as I was born in 86' , but that is what the records tell for Fort Myers High School in Fort Myers Florida. Now there are a lot of strong high schoolers. Look at the high school football combines. Bench Press 185 as many as you can. I got 24 at 209 lbs at UF football camp and the top was something rediculous like 39 or 40. But as for myself , I was my strongest at 17 with a 350lb bench. Unfortunately I think I primed out early as it hasnt gotten stronger in 4 years. Now I dont believe that a 400lb bench by a 165 lb kid is accurate.
