I developed shoulder and back problems from 600 lb deadlifts, and lifting heavy once a week. It amazes me how these guys can do it. Wonder what kind of injuries and how guys like these work around them. Retarded level of strength.

How come bad form?

Yup, seen Kovacs in my gym last year and he was a long time warming up his shoulders with very light weight. He looked like he was in pain. But the guy was still as big as a house. My friend talked to him for a bit, he's 250 5'11 and he looked like a midget beside him.

i would bench around those numbers too if i was that fat

Way to shine a light on your ignorance.

First, he ain't fat, and two, the guy's strength is awe-inspiring. This level of pushing power is at the outer limits, as they exist today.

However, as with most extreme pushers, his overindulgence of drugs, coupled with the incredible stress of moving such poundage, will, probably sooner than later, have him suffer a career-ending injury. It's almost inevitable.
