Giant head? Narrow shoulders? In that case, Phil Heath could be a champion bencher if he got his fat ass off the Hammer Strength press

Ha Ha Ha

🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Phil is actually quite strong on the bench press, there’s some truth to it haha

Doesn’t apply to Kazmaier or Doug Young 👍🏻

Yes it does.

Look at Kazamier:
What do you see?  Giant head, Narrow Shoulders. Extreme Sloped Shoulders.

[illuminati]

Yes it does.

And you post a pic of a 65+ Bill Kazmaier 
Do the Same For Doug young - oh you can’t he’s dead.

Again, you gotta see them with their natural structure as well.  Roids can hide whats really under there or whats going on.  A trained eye like mine, can still tell though.


Its true about the Giant Head, Narrow Shoulders, Sloped Shoulders and good bench.

Trained eye 
And you’ve competed at a National level & Beyond At powerlifting??
I Have & Set Bench & Squat Records & Know Many other’s far better than me
Who also don’t fit your criteria.

[obsidian]

Yes it does.

Still wider than you'll ever be. Your people are not exactly known for being great physical specimens. You're a midget right? What's your height and weight? You should not be critiquing anyone True Anus.

How much can you bench Tru Anus?

[obsidian]

Good Bench Pressers usually have the shitty narrow, sloped shoulders, short arms, giant heads, and are very narrow framed in general.  All is revealed once the drugs are gone.


The narrower the shoulder width and the slopier the shoulders, the better you are at bench.  Its a common genotype for sure.

Narrow Shoulders Suck For Benching

Ectomorphs tend to have narrow shoulders. This also hurts the bench press because a narrower base is less stable than a wider one.

The Bench Press is Affected By Your Bodyweight

Whether you’re a skinny or skinny-fat ectomorph, you’re probably on the lighter side of the spectrum. This instantly hits your bench press numbers because the lift is heavily affected by your bodyweight . {more on this here}.

This leads us to a series of logical questions:

Do ectomorphs have any advantage in the bench press?

Not really. All odds are against the ectomorphs. Unless you’re a genetic freak, you are going to suck at the bench press as an ecto.

TA is 5'11". Not short. I read on Elite Fitness that he won the 2000 Mr. NC, at only 18.

I did laugh when TA called Rich Gaspari a dwarf. I think he called him a dwarf.

TA's bench genetics phenotype applies to me...I would add: short wingspan / reach / levers.

What does a big head have to do with it though?

[m8]

Anadrol is a hell of a drug. Good guy, I hope he survives till at least 30 tho.

5’11 is short for getbig standards 

There’s a chart for this posted here many times, 5’11 is known as the “king of midgets”

Nope ...that chart said 5'10" was king of the Manlets.

Hahaha you got me there, one freaking inch

[Van_Bilderass]

Why not?When I bench heavy I didn’t have a spot at all?I could rip that off him very easily.How many people you need to spot you?Larry is a beast at worst he’s gonna be able to press 500 if it’s a really bad day so the spotter don’t have to pull much.

There is no time to react for a spotter if things go bad... the bar may hit the throat or face easily. I really think they should use those bench set-ups with the guard rails on the sides that  IPF uses nowadays. Saves your face/life potentially.

In the squat, same thing, 5 or more spotters and the spotters often don't react fast enough, and even if they do they can't hold the weight anyway. The hanging loops they use on the monolift in some orgs are a great idea IMO.

A lot of bodybuilders squat real heavy in powerracks but set the rails far too low. Why not take a few seconds to  set them just an inch below bottom position?

Sometimes it’s the thrill of not having a safety net.

One inch on my dick and two inches in height, and I could be a woman's dream.

So yes, it matters.

[The True Adonis]

How much can you bench Tru Anus?

Not that much, because of long arms and width, but not bad either for a lifetime Natural.

People on Getbig are fickle. Everyone is a Mr. Olympia contender on here. Pay no mind to them.

[The True Adonis]

I am the white Thomas Hearns.

[The True Adonis]

If it makes anyone feel any better, the general public and even seasoned lifters think I bench like 405-450 for reps.  Its hilarious really.  I get the question, "how much do you bench?"  I then ask, "how much do you think?".


"Probably around 400-415 for reps."

I just laugh, and say, "something like that".   


I will let peoples own mind create their expectations for me.  Its an interesting human experiment to see how they will place value on someone else at the same time degrading their own.

I’m neither fickle or have been a Mr Olympia contender.
Though I have won National (UK) champs at Powerlifting & Bodybuilding
And competed for my country.

I’m realistic about how good I was - And I Very Definitely Know a fair bit
About what I’m talking about.

Thank You.

I know a Lifetime Natural girl that decimates everything you accomplished in Powerlifting.

Very good for you son.
No doubt she also decimates what you’ve accomplished.

And as you do not know what I’ve accomplished or wether I was using PED’s or Not
Your assertions are Pathetic.

Next it’ll be your dads bigger than mine. 
Pathetic Individual.
