Not sure if anyone still gives a shit about this section. But, if anyone is still around here and has forgotten what real powerlifting looks like, particularly the bench press, here it is:

535 RAW bench press with feet on the bench!

Good news Jason. The guy doesn't have the mega-blubbed powerlifter look either. So, you can cut out the 5 dbl. cheeseburger lunches. wink.gif

I'm 100% with you, that's a true test of strength right there, an impressive REAL bench.

Is that this same guy? He's got a few impressive vids on Youtube. 405 close grip bench, etc...strong ass dude.

I think that's the same cat. It's the same handle. That fukker is an animal. He looks like he weighs around 230ish. Though, it's hard to tell how tall he is. I'd imagine he's pretty short, since it makes it easier to move that kind of weight with shorter arms.

Tell me about it broski.

My guess (but who knows really cuz there's no frame of reference) is he's between 5' 9" and 6'.

Werd. That's why powerlifting is such a joke these days. These so called "bench press specialists" put on a shirt that absorbs 25% of the weight and arch their back to the point that you could drive a truck under it, then push the weight up about 8 inches, and call it a world record bench press.

Scott Mendelson is the only one I have any respect for. He's the only powerlifter who's had enough balls to show what he could lift without the cheat shirt (715lbs). I'd suck Ryan Kennelly's balls if he'd do the same.

while you're entitled to your opinion, the video you posted he's doing exactly what you're complaining about. arched back, belly up, on his toes for leg drive, and it's borderline touch and go.

Probably choking down another 5 dbl. cheeseburgers while counting his $ to see if he has enough for a Karin Kline Dbl. Denim bench shirt.

Look how low he brings this down and how short the ROM is. I don't care what anyone calls this lift, but it sure as hell ain't a bench press.

Dude can barely take his arms out of the "locked" position with that contraption he's wearing. WTF??

Half the weight...twice as impressive

I'm surprised this impresses you enough to post it since you used to bench over 500lbs yourself roids.
