I think he sticks with RAW lifting,I have heard that he may try shirt benching in the future.The other thing he does on tape is 405X22 reps on the bench and a seated behind the neck with 405.Hes VERY VERY strong and only 242 which is just nuts.I think his best bench in competition is 615 weighing 236 with no shirt,which is just plain freaky as hell.As far as sponsors,maybe supplement companies,Im not sure,but I doubt gear makers will sponsor him unless he wants t-shirts and singlets.
