I wonder, if you took that guy, who could probably squat the same, and have him do 100 or even 50 body weight squats, would he struggle? I think he would.

Such pressing power is difficult to comprehend.

Utterly amazing.

I haven't even watched the video, and I was already thinking the same thing.

I used to think a good standard for a normal gym rat was being in range of HALF what the very strongest men on earth can lift. But that would now mean strict bench pressing 391-lb. I wouldn't even frankly want to risk that, even if I could do that [which I can't]. I believe in 2012, a Russian powerlifter died when around 400-lb slipped when he was attempting to bench press it.

These guys today are a legit next level. IMO, the biggest single variable to have changed is the fact that the average body weight of a WSM athlete or powerlifter has gone up, with some top guys in the 400-lb to 450-lb range.  :o

Did you watch it?

That was a strict pause and press. Very impressive.

He has more muscle in his left leg than your entire body. ;D

Very impressive. Subtract 500 lbs, and you have 282. i bet less than 10 percent of a typical non hardcore gym can bench this.

Julius could likely bounce a bench press of over 800-lb at this point.

Even deadlifting that would be crazy for most people. Typically, most men under 300-lb would not be deadlifting 782-lb, I would say [elite lifters aside].

Ever notice that the term “Elite” is only applied to athletes in sports where there’s no money? You never hear of an “Elite” quarterback or pitcher. Lots of elite lifters and distance runners.

I think it makes sense. I think when not much money in it you are in it for your absolute hearts passion. So you are the best not cause of millions of dollars and personal chefs and trainers and whatever else bullshit the rich athletes have access to. So elite rings truer here for me anyways.

If it makes you feel better, Darren, I don't think even Julius has ever deadlifted (or squatted) 785 lb.

The man is a bench specialist- not an all-round power-lifter - unlike Kirill Sarychev ( the previous raw bench press and raw three-lift powerlifting total record holder) .
