Enough with the benching and squatting...how many Getbiggers....

[kwri298]

I've done it for 8 reps but my bodyweight was alot higher and I was only going down to about my the top of my nose.  I have not done free weight shoulder press in a while. 

[Rami]

With a big enough adrenal release and stress hormones, but I'll probably never find out, or prove it. I hope I never. You can easily quadruple your strength if your going crazy enough.

[wes]

no

[kyomu]

....can shoulder press 225lbs or more?

I can

[JasonH]

Yep - piece of piss.

I can dumbell shoulder press a pair of 140s for a double, 12 reps with the 120s, and have smith pressed 315. Shoulders are easily my strongest bodypart compared with the others where my lifts are average.

[The Apprentice]

i often do push presses with with 100kg or 110kg for 3 reps, also did 225lbs strict sitting

[chris_mason]

I can do it seated or standing.

Now for somone with incredible overhead strength:

Thats one strong SOB

[MONSTER_TRICEPS]

This guy could do a pretty strict press with 500.

[polychronopolous]

Unreal.

One of the most impressive lifts I have ever seen.

[MONSTER_TRICEPS]

It's just ridiculous. Can't believe how someone can get that ridiculously strong.

[polychronopolous]

He made it look so easy

[SS]

All day!!!!!!!!!!

[Bossa]

[SS]

Yeah but his hands weren't even and if he dieted down to -3% he would be able to lift a can of corn

[polychronopolous]

That shit cracks me up

[kwri298]

The Axle lift is much harder because the bar is solid at the ends and does not rotate like a normal bar.

[Miss Demeanor]

big dude

WOW.  Yeah, Man of Steel is one of the few Getbigger men who perfectly fits his screenname.  VERY big.

But Steel, darlin', why are you wearing a shower cap in that picture?    Was it rainy in that restaurant?

[Internet Tough Guy]

....can shoulder press 225lbs or more?

15 lbs x 20 reps = 300 lbs so YES

225 at once...I'm sure I could but Planet Fitness doesn't make weights heavy enough to try.

Well thank you....to be honest, I can't remember the joke or where it came from, but everyone at the table kept laughin at me wearin it so I kept it on for a few minutes.   I didn't think it was very funny but I was only one not drinkin that night either.

[MisterMagoo]

MAYBE. on a good day. i hate shoulder presses because i'm absolutely terrible at them, so i don't do them. which makes me terrible at them.

LOL!!  Funny how that works for everyone.

it's the damndest thing, dude. i figured if i took some time off from shoulder presses it'd recharge my batteries. so i take like four months off, TOPS, and suddenly i'm bad at them. it's just crazy beans. 

by the way that glenn ross video is one of the sickest things ever recorded.
