Squadfather claims a 385 pound bench? Can it be?

[Epic_Monster]

I have to think about this shit!!

[no one]

Wow, you have anger issues. I was asking legitimate questions. Did you use AAS, and did you ever press 400?

lol.

no anger here. just having fun.

as for your questions, yes i do, and yes i do.

but squadfather can't bench 385.

i guarantee it.

[kiwiol]

...most lifetime naturals would be lucky to get 300 for a 1RM, no matter how long they had been training.

For the record I sincerely doubt Squad could manage 315 for 1.

I could go on, but I think everyone gets the point - you have no clue about what you are saying. Stick to hunting for Big Foot cause that's the closest you're going to get when it comes to 'bush' hahahaha

he couldn't push 385 on his best day.

thats a fact.

If it's a fact, then where is the proof? We both know you are just speculating and I think that you are wrong, just like you were in assuming he was / is natural.

[no one]

The Luke, you are wrong 

I don't doubt 385lb for a single from him..

lemme put it to you like this steele- can you bench 385 for a single?

i would say that you and fatty are as close to carrying the same amount of lean tissue. he may weigh more but his bf% is prolly a good 20% higher than yours.  given that, it would put you two fairly close to having the same amount of lean muscle.

385 would bury him.

Thanks for answering. What I would like to know: what exactly makes you think it is not possible for him? Not enough juice? Not enough training years? Not enough bodyweight? No talent? Long-ass arms?

Just asking, because I'd like to know how you would see me. I bench a tad over 385 myself now*, and that was without juice. To some people 405 seems to be the absolute limit, but for those who have done it, it is just another milestone on the way to an even bigger number. I don't feel great about hitting 405, I feel pissed off at still not having hit 500!



* I did two weeks ago, and then hurt my shoulder.

i dont care what you think, jap-o.

it's my opinion that he can't.

if you dont agree thats your problem.

what you think is of little concern to me.

hope this helps.

read my post to steele. it pretty much sums it up.

he's fat, and last time i checked, fat didnt move weight, muscle did. he's pushing 30% bf and thats no joke. anyone who competes can look at his pics and put him over 25% all day.

lean tissue, he's well below 200- maybe as little as 185.

so, 385 @ 185?

he lied and got caught with his pants down.

What do you estimate SF's lean mass at? I am almost certain he has more lean mass than I do. So if I bench 385, then why shouldn't he be able to?

here:

Wow. My bf% is hovering around 40 now (my lack of willpower is sickening!), which would mean my lean mass is around 175. And I hit 385 (actually 180 kg, so 396) two weeks ago. So if he's lying I'm an even bigger liar?

no, but you are a fat bastard.

[phreak]

no, but you are a fat bastard.

Indeed.

[medz zeppelin]

it's possible ......maybe an hour out from a chinese buffet

[OneMoreRep]

I believe he can do it, why not?  Really, that's not too hard of a feat.

"1"

LOL @ jap-o

And you are right, it's your opinion - which is not the same as saying it's a fact.

That's what I was pointing out before. Carry on with your thread

[Charlys69]

maybe itīs realistic ??  i don`t know, i don`t care.....because i have no benefit of what other people can do (or maybe not...).

what count is my next meal, my next workout, having a good sleep next night....

[WhiteCastle]

I would have to see it to believe it.  The number of people I have seen use over 350 lbs on a bench in my life is countable on one hand, but the number of people who claim it on the internets is about 1 in 3.

[toolarge4u]

much as he gives me shit and doesnt know me, i believe he could do that. Its not an outragous claims, if those window pics are him he looks to be powerful enough. Hes not exactly small and pure fat.

[The Squadfather]

shit i'm busted, actually my bench is a dime on each side of the bar for 4.

[dr.chimps]

Seriously?
I can't imagine NOT getting it.  I'm only 20, and my genetics are ABSOLUTELY average. I was really skinny in high school. I weighed 135 or thereabouts when I was 16-17. Somewhat narrow frame, high traps, sloped shoulders, peaked/short biceps.
Now at 20 I'm just below 210 lbs.  I don't know what my max is, but if I can bench 315 for 5 now then I can't imagine not hitting 180. I'm just guessing, but I'd GUESS that 315 for 10 or so is ~1 rep with 405. Like I said, that's just a guess, but it sounds about right.  And yes I plan to be a lifetime natural.

The odds are against it, but it is possible. It will take years, with maximum dedication (training/nutrition, etc.) and with little interference from life like job or family. Most of the guys I know who did it used pharma. It is a hell of a lot of weight to get under and it would put you in that smallest of percentiles lift-wise. Best of luck.

Your genetics may be average from a BB perspective, but it could be different from a strength standpoint.  4 plates on a bench is not something the average person can do, even with training.

hmmm..let me "guesstimate" here

just for the sake of this argument

I can do 315lb for a couple reps.

I have never tried but I might be able to crank out 325-330 for  single

give me 40lbs more of fat and that might push me in the 360-380lb range?

380 for a single from him is not that out of the ordinary.

throw in some creatine + Beta Alanine and what other current crap is out there..

I dont get it.Im not a squadfather fan,but 385 on the bench is now a big deal?Geeze,guys saying they have only seen two guys in a gym bench 225?I train at a gym where there are MANY guys[I can count 13 off the top of my head] who bench 405 with no shirt.We have two guys who have benched 600 with no shirt in meets[and over 800 with shirts].I dont think there is a guy in my gym that cant bench 315 for at least one rep.Again,Im no squadfather fan,but Id bet that he does 385 pretty easily if hes been training for a few years.
