Title: A-Rod Benches 350
Post by: Moosejay on February 05, 2008, 06:25:16 AM
I heard on news this morning( Boomer Esiason's Radio show) that A-Rod was seen at NY Sports Club (I think that's the gym mentioned) benching 350.

Does anyone think he is actually capable of this poundage? Especially with such long arms and comparably not being a massive fellow...such as unto Barry Bonds?

I don't see why not, he probably weighs in the 240 - 250 range.  That is a reasonable amount of strength for someone to attain, a 1 rep max at 100lbs over your bodyweight.

Yes, but that phrase is beyond your scope of vocabulary, apparently

A-Rod Benches 350


Big deal.


Right after my cage fight last night, I did 800lbs raw... for reps!


And this was while having the bird flu!  I imagine I could do 1000+ for reps when healthy!  :D

I see A-Rod around Coral Gables. He does go to a small private type gym and trains hard. He is tall and athletically lean. 350, no.
