Those are my best raw contest lifts right there. I wont add bench shirt cause no one here cares hahah. When I was jacked up on the good stuff I did a 650 touch n go in the gym and was doing 600 for 3 solid reps.

Super Ted just google me there are pics from 400 plus down to 235. My BW is all over the place hahaha!

Wolfe is the real deal... Saw him at New England Record Breakers back in 2006...

Pretty fuuny, looking at this post from Powerlifting watch, this guy was trying to pump up that contest:

Good idea. Make your NERB reservations now. Tickets will be on sale around April 1st and it looks like this will sell out fast. The MMA crowd usually fills the events they have in that area and its usually only around 2500 people. They told me that with an event of this nature, we should double that number and that’s not counting the Powerlifting and Bikini Contest.

Hotels in the area are already filling up so book those fast. If you go to the Mullins Centers website you can see a list of hotels. Click on the Record Breakers poster and the link is on the bottom.

See you there.
Dave!


There was only like 50 people in the crowd, oh well  :-\

315 is a sold bench.   When consider how many people do the bench press as a whole and how many can actually ever get 315, I would bet it is only about 3-4%.



I actually tried 3 plates a couple of days ago (I'm at my highest bodyweight now) and it was tough, but I brought it up (with the aid of a spotter). It used to be so much easier back when I was 19-27. I'm 36 now and feeling weaker. Muscles just don't respond the way they used to.

315 is VERY respectable for the bench press, serious weight for sure

I use to warm up with 225 now 275 feels like 355......oooold

I was at a bench / pull competition as a spectator a few weeks back in a big city, lots of gyms, big guys etc...
ONE guy did a legit 402 bench press- competition-( 100 kg weight class, in a tested fed.)  a few guys were in the high three's, most were in the lower three's
Point being, a LEGIT competition 365 bench or higher is a heckuva  lift
How many guys on Get Big can hit 365 or better with good form- ? Maybe 10 ?

I don't know if I agree with this. . Most guys are familiar with Block periodization.how high level powerlifters and athletes train and .it goes like this.
accumulation phase
transmutation
realization (de-load phase)

the realization phase or de-load whatever you call it  allows for a period of super compensation. This is when you peak for a meet. Your lifts will be a lot more than you would normally be capable of.  Add cheque drops, pre lift physche ups, these guys are getting a lot out of their lifts. Nothing against the sport but to me that's bullshit. ..true strength is what a guy can do any given day, at any given time. That's the reason ronnie and kevin levrone's  lifts were so impressive to me. These guys were tired...detrained..not even training for strength and reaping 500 like paper.

I thought it was 500.

He also admitted to being  on 1cc of test per day for 6 months straight.

not taking anything away from the big guy.

Wouldn't doubt if he approached that number.

His specialty was behind neck presses if I remember correctly.

I am aware of that.

It is just boggling though.

I use 1cc a week.

Furious Pete's platonic training-partner looks very estrogenic.

switched up training methods past couple weeks.

hit 275 and 250 for 20, then couple barely get 225 for 15, then a measly 185 for two sets of 20... then all the other stuff for sets of 20. helluva ego blow when you gotta use 50% of what you normally use. lol

are you saying it's not believable that he's usually benching 550?
