Even Chabot was only good for 562 raw in a meet.
He mainly did Multi-Ply as well...

Nothing like the good old days. Speaking of benching, I believe the scariest bencher ever was Glen Chabot, who wasn’t a fat sack of shit and would fire 600 off his chest for reps with minimal arch and a medium grip!

If I recall correctly, Fortress said he saw him scare the daylights out of someone.

Training with Titus below.



Coan and I sat a few feet away as Glen came close to killing a dude. Wanted to go outside with him. Some of the world’s greatest powerlifters and strongmen had to intervene.

Chabot was HOT under the collar.

Scary.

These equipped bench competitors sometimes fail because they can’t make the bar to touch theit chests!
It is hard to think any activity that has turned so totally upside down from it’s origins?

If I recall correctly, you said that was all over some guy who wrote something unflattering about him? What a nut!

What is that nonsense. Take that shirt off and bench 5-600. Why does anyone even entertain this crap? Cheering and going crazy like what he did was even worth talking about. I’m gonna go deadlift today and rent a crane to help me do 5000 lbs.

Either you can do it or you can’t and in this case, he can’t.


Why polevault when you can just high jump? no one is questioning the validity of pole vaulters.

Never thought about that but now that you mention yes get rid of the pole and just jump. But seriously you can’t consider that a bench press?

On the topic of benching: have you guys seen this bullshit-artist, “natty” bencher Colin Weng?
Messing with 500 and saying he’s natural, lol. Even Ryan Kennelly, who was bigger than him and a top-ranked bencher said he couldn’t bench 500 without roids!

eature=share

Benching over 5 in this one, “natty”. Haha!
eature=share
