he is strong no doubt... but once the bar is touched or held on the ascent... in my eyes you cant do it..
drop the weight  and put the weight up yourself
choice is an illusion

Meso, think about what you are saying.  The guy tried a weight and barely missed it.  That is called a PR attempt.  No one makes them all.  I guarantee you he would have gotten 550-560 lbs which is still VERY impressive.

Thanks for your insight on this momentus feat of strength, the world is now enlightened. I wonder how you manage to find your way out of bed in the morning, did you even manage to get a H.S. Diploma, what am I thinking of course you didn't.

He gets kinda stuck mid-rep, but doesn't appear to be getting much help if any in raising the bar.

I'm not sure if the spotter really touches the bar.


so many things wrong in that clip, but the most important one IMO is that HES A BODYBUILDER, NOT A POWERLIFTER...WTF is he accomplishing benching 6 plates for .75 rep (.25 was the spotter) . No wonder why there are so many stupid injuries, guys like him benching wayyy more than they have to . just because you cant bench 6 plates even for one full rep doesnt mean its worth doing if your a bodybuilder...
