You know I like to think I'm a strong guy..do heavy weight correctly, etc....then my ego gets deflated when I remember:

Greg Kovacs:

495 Shoulder Press
110lb dumbell side laterals

That's when I realize I'm really a midget. Anyone else like to post an ego killer to us all?

Shock
 
IIRC, one of AnimalMass's training partners is 19 (maybe 20 now) and benches 800+. His brother (23-24) DLs something like 850-900.

How much does the guy weigh?
 
I get them confused. When I met them last summer, one was 275, the other 305. HUGE guys, legs like....like nothing Ive seen before. Even the "bencher" has 30+ inch quads. Both were very nice and it was cool hanging out with them for a day, along with some Meso bros.

That's crazy! Can't say I would want to be that big.

I think she already has suspisions. But, what she doesnt know cant hurt her.

Unless of course you have crabs. Then that might be an issue.
 
i remember watchin a samoan that weighed about 200-220
benching 495 for doubles with no spotter
about 15 years ago at the time i was like 18 years old and about 190#
and benchin 330 i was awe struck by his confidence

Bob Smith these brothers you talk about benching 800+@19-20years of age.Well it shouldnt be long before we see there names in the record books if theyre not already there.What are there names as the must be semi-famous??
The world records 900by the way so a few more years they should break that easy right??
 
Their names will be in the record books, no question about it. I may have been slightly off with the numbers, as Ive talked to AnimalMass about these guys before and what they are shooting for this year.

Anyway, heres an interview from last fall with the older brother (who's the bencher). http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/dennis76.htm

That is nothing short of amazing and freaky. I always expect a much different personality but he seemed so down to earth.
On another hand he trains hard, takes flax seed, a multivit., and creatine- no wonder he is so strong :-)
 
Squat

Chuck Voghpool (sp?) from West Side GyM squatted (In the Hole) 1075 lbs (or so) i the 220 weight class (216 weigh-in If I remember correctly) ... West Sdie Gym Fuckers are the SHIT !!!!
 
The biggest lifts I have seen are a 720 squat for 3, guy could have done 3 more it was so easy... Have seen a 555lbs bench press. No where near the 750 you guys are talking about, but still pretty cool... Saw a 190lbs bodybuilder do bent rows with 365 for sets of 8....
