400 Pounds flat bench, 50 reps without stopping....

Is what Sergio Oliva claims he did in his recently self-published autobiography.

Anyone here believe this could be possibly true?

I'd have to agree. I was not sure at first because it is, after all, Sergio, however, I don't think ANYONE could ever do this.

How does the rest of the book read in terms of believability?

Seeing as Ronnie Coleman benches 225 for around 75 reps, and is more than likely FAR stronger than Oliva at his peak....I gotta call bullshit. Major bullshit.

Horrible.

Oliva does himself absolutely no favors.

He contradicts so many things he has said in the past, as though he has forgotten many truths.

He calls racism, for instance, when Arnold beats him in the 70 O, when Oliva had won the past three and beaten white guys.

Terribly written, grammar is horrible.

Wish I could say something positive, but he is VERY disingenuous in this 'book'.

Did he use a ghostwriter?

Thanks for the info. I'll be sure to waste my hard earned money on something else.

50 reps at 400 would give Segio a 1 rep max of 900 pounds, in the 60's.

If ANYONE buys that bullshit they are retarded fools.

 10-12 reps MAX with 400

No way. Not even 20.

If DW did hit 23 reps he would have video taped it and posted it....

Massive BS, Kennely benched 20x405, and he is one of the strongest benchers in the world.

I would be surprised if he could get 15 reps with that weight - maybe 10 or 12 at a push but 50? Ha - we have another world-record claiming liar on our hands.

Sergio is a true legend and the very defintition of "freak of nature"...but this is Bullshit with a capital B. I could believe 10 reps at this weight but not much more.

The best I have seen was Aussie, Rod Sylvia press 400 for 20 reps and he was a world champion bench presser at the time, single rep about 650 from memory.

I have always been a Sergio fan but that is delusional.

the race card is the favorite excuse for blacks....something isn't given to them, must be racism
