oh well you can do it gain if you trained, I know a vegetarian who does 4 plates on the bench 

[Coach is Back!]

Exactly this is a HS kid and is know for his raw power by all the schools recruiting him.  That strength designation on the recruiting page shows he has repeated big lifts at combines.  Even when you watch the pro scout combines it's rare to see guys benching or squatting with perfect form.

They don't do 1RM's at scouting combines. College and Pro it's a 225lb rep test and HS is 185lbs. HS Nike combines, they don't do the 185lb bench rather they do a kneeling med-ball chest pass and they certainly don't squat.

There's no doubt the kid is on gear. But scouts are also not looking for who can bench 500lbs. As impressive as it is, they could careless.

[Hulkotron]

He has an nfl UPPER BODY. 

His legs, however, look like they are from a much smaller man.  He looks like JJ Watt from the waist up.  But his arms are literally almost as big as his legs.  Won't have the speed or height for NFL, but will kick a little ass and get free college.

Probably hump some nice slightly-overweight college poon

[Devon97]

You're not even close to being ready for this debate. Trust me.

OH shit!!!

[Devon97]

so 16 years of strength coaching and years and years of previous personal training and you still do not know that someone touching the bar makes the lift easier.   

How much help did those fingers account for? 10 lbs? 15 lbs? 25 lbs?

Hell if that kid has warmed up correctly. and had proper set-up + lift off he could have nailed all 3 on his own.

I know the tests but why are they rating him on strength under the Traits? I know things have changed a lot but when I was recruited schools wanted the single totals, 40 time, stats and of course film highlights.

He's just pissed he can't do this as easy as some kid going through puberty. DON'T argue with him.

[Danimal77]

Little hard to tell, but he's a big kid, 6'-6", #280-290ish. Lots of offers from college scouts.

If he's a legit 6'6", he needs to pack on more bodyweight. He needs to get over 300 pounds.

[galeniko]

people do not understand how much it takes away from a lift with hands on a bar, I can add a full plate and have a guy hands on the bar and it will look like he is not helping at all.

but on the way up he was very explosive and looked like no help at all in 2 reps.

this kid has epic power

[galeniko]

That said...his shoulders are gonna last about a month doing that shit.

he will eventualy pay for that,yes.

yes exactly

All these guys just think about "official" bench stats which nobody cares about anyway because the kid can make money and have a nice life playing pro football.  he doesn't care that somebody hand is on the bar because it doesn't matter.

We do need *final solution* for the "power lifters" anybody have ideas???!

 

[headhuntersix]

I don't think the "powerlifters" were arguing that. Maybe we need to do something about the perma curlers...                                                     

[mr.turbo]

what was the argument?

looks like some narrow minded technical bullshit. this is diluting the gene pool.

perhaps you should be prevented from reproducing too...?

[Shockwave]

I juat benched 315 for the 1st time evar.

and I had probably another 5-10 lbs left.

And to think I was feeling pretty good, and then just HS kid benching 500 all up in my grill. What a dick.

Kid is epic strong

Congrats bro 

[ProudVirgin69]

People get drafted/recruited based on hype all the time.

That guy who had the video of him jumping out the pool, Jeff Demps who qualified for the 100m in the Olympics, Tim Tebow.... these guys all sucked, but they still got drafted based on the hype/intangibles around them.

Scouts are human too.... and in a sea of offensive lineman, there's only one with a video of him benching 515.

Damn bro you're on steroids and you've only just benched 315? And you've been on this site for 8 years +?

Not picking on you or anything but thats fucking sad. Drop the roids and build a foundation through proper training and diet.

Making gains.

I knew there was bound to be one of you.

I have horrible bench mechanics and could never go more than 225x4 off the juice. I've only been juicing for a couple months, and I literally NEVER ORM. I pretty much always do sets of 245x8-10. So nice try broseph.

No need to justify yourself. Honestly Bodybuilders should care fuck all about numbers. I still play with the big dumbells, 130s, almost 140s, but my best pumps are from the 85s. Numbers mean jack shit. 315lbs is a good bench dude.
