Ryan Kennelly benched 1,036 pounds today at the WPO Stars of the Bench in the Ukraine. That gave Kennelly the win and the new All-Time Record in the bench press. Kennelly surpasses Gene Rychlak's 1,010 pound effort.
Rob Luyando benched 903 pounds which is a new All-Time Record in the 242 pound class, besting his own mark. Luyando hit his 850 pound opener, 881 pound second, and missed a 921 pound fourth attempt.
Scot Mendelson benched 986 pounds.
Da BenchMonster is da man!
Does this lift on a world class stage on the other side of the planet in a foreign country - he's the real deal all the way!

how much does he bench without the shirt?

Probably hits 675-725 raw. Dont know if he will ever test himself though? As soon as he's injured its over, no more 1000+ bench.

Not that simple. Put on a shirt and then tell me how easy it is.

It takes a lot to "learn the shirt."
He would definately tear something if he went anywhere near his max shirted bench without it.
Im no hater though. Go with what works! 8)

Sorry guys, and this is JMO but when gear adds THAT much, it's no longer saftey equipment but falls into the Performance-enhancing catagory .
Thats insane to me.... a shirt adding 300/ 400 lbs. when I wore my shirt the only real diffrence was making the lift w/shirt--- missing it w/o shirt. and even then it took 2 people to get it off. but that was 20 years ago. So as long as it's a level playing field what the heck! But I can see it now...........Non- powerlifer- " How much you bench?" .. "800".... "Ah come on! prove it".. Sorry can't I don't have my shirt with me. but I can bench 500 with out it!

not saying anything "bad" about the shirt, it just surprises me how much "assistance" a piece of equipment like that can add to a lift. If it is approved gear for a comp. then I would suspect if you didn't have a shirt, you would be left behind.

I live in Moses Lake WA, and I get to lift with Ryan every now and then. It pisses me off when people question how strong Ryan is with out the shirt. The guy is a freak, he is crazy strong with or with out the shirt. Just u-tube him, he easily benches 600 twice raw and i think that was a while ago. So everybody that says "its just the shirt", eat a dick and a bowl of balls. A 1036 lbs is bad ass. Congrats Bro!!!

Funny how that fat fcuk Kidder goes and tries to act like he's the fcuking man over in Ukraine.
I bet he didn't spend one fcuking dime on the whole event, but rather had the promotor pay everything.
Wouldn't surprise me if Kidder is using part of the money he's getting from the promotor to pay the money he still owes people from 2005. ::)
I think it's karma though. And Kidder will learn that it's very different to fcuk with an Ukrainian "entrepreneur", than to fcuk up an average joe.
-
Kidder is indeed a fucking retard.

It is great to see that Ryan has done it.

first time i used a bench shirt i hit 575 i hit 455 raw no bounce, wit a second pause and using a less than a sub par arch

that's why I asked about his non-shirted lift, to see what his "real" strength is.
the fact that you flipped out about it only shows that your dosage is a little too high.
like someone said above, when it adds several hundred pounds to a lift, it is an enhancement, not safety.
BTW, wannabe, nice meltdown, sissy.

in his dvd, Kennelly benched 405 for 20 reps raw. that's pretty damn strong
