I think he could "anyhow" bench #505 for a single in a gym, but I would doubt it would pass at a real Powerlifiting meet. I think mid #400's for a legit paused bench with rules on foot, head, and ass position is more likely for him.Here's a better look at the amount of short stoke on those contest reps -.
225 x 74
ha ha noi for a fact have done that before, with 225 and i cannot bench 500
Hahahaha I remember back reading an article in the Fort Worth Star Telegram where they did a piece on Ronnie Coleman after his first Olympia win and he claimed something like 225 for 82 reps.
patheticly weak.phil smashes them.
He toys around with 400. He once benched 505. Props!http://newyork.cbslocal.com/?podcast_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.podtrac.com%2Fpts%2Fredirect.mp3%2Fnyc.podcast.play.it%2Fmedia%2Fd0%2Fd0%2Fd1%2Fd2%2Fd8%2Fd2%2FdR%2F1282R_3.MP3%3Fauthtok%3D5562016647656296579_29YXnVyUjZEsLBxhmELR6R80&podcast_name=02-21+Phil+Heath&podcast_artist=Boomer+Esiason+and+Craig+Carton&station_id=91&tag=boomerandcarton&dcid=CBS.NY
Jesus, you got 225 X46 Mes? I dont flat bench but have done 225 X20 on incline and that's not even in the same ballpark. Props
he actually tried to get awayw ith that 1000lbs claim nah comeon , rom was good enough.maybe not powerlifting legit or perfect bodybuilders form, but good enough.hm, i fond locking out easier.in a way.lock out and get some rest, then proceed

ah makes sense now.i tried 220 for 20 today btw and ,hahahaha, failed
all dieted down, very lean, very light even tough i had all cheat meals in last 24 hrs and look full(already spilling over), the power isnt there yet again.and i can tell im severly severly ovetrained.and it was perfect form towards end of the training instead of when "fresh".managed 18, not so bad considering the circumstances.yes, thats a ton of excuses i know, but i cant do more than 30 even on a good day at this kind of bodyweight.if im 220lbs, yes, slightly more than 30.will now take off a couple days of trainign and eat like a human being.then be back at it full force again spring is around the corner, gotta be sliced
Easily believable
ah, mere personal goal, you know, like some others train for a maximum bench(i cant do that nomore with my old skeleton ), i said lets go all the way on diet.but its terrible and indeed not worth it unless competing.the "side effects" are:-very aggressive , borderline asocial due to permanent hunger-have to piss every 15 minutes-tired all day, i mean, very tired.-feeling of weakness, like tired to walk.-to top it off, insomnia.couple pounds fatter everythings fine, though.
yes,it requires some mental strenght, but the rolemodels are picked.hamdi is as lean year round, the shock when i first time saw him in person, right next to me, that shock never went away.ever since i said "i want that too" its quite tremendous what the difference is between staying at 8% and getting down to 5-6%.always i say to myself, it wont be that bad, lets do it, and every time, it gets much worse than i thought
hamdullah aykutlug, look him up upkeeping, i try at all times, when i go off, i just deflate like baloon, but atleast still lean i sometimes go off training for a while randomly too, to give a mental break.but other than that, something like current shape is what i am for year round.easy maintainable hrt everyday physique
Nasser displayed very good form and was rather slow with his reps.......so his 15 reps were rather respectable considering his controlled rep style.just my 2 cents.
