The weights jiggle like jello. Also there's more bend to a bar with 275 on it than this.

Nice work brother, to the people saying its fake, it could be such as anything online but this bloke looks as legit as it gets.

Holy shit this is insane man, amazing job!!

one day brother!

Broooo crazyyyy

Touch and Go PR :D

He’s actually benching 455 not 450 so it’s even more impressive

just wow

I am actually amazed. Upon first impressions, you look nothing like a lifter at all. Your muscles arent swole either, you are just big. You are so deceptive it is crazy. You have scary strength and you use absolutely zero leg drive and what looks like no bracing either, as well as being completely raw. This video appeared on my feed and i thought you were going to fail the lift initially. Damn brother, you are exceptional, awesome stuff.

oh-kay

My god

550 kg press eleiko 👍

Can you post more? :D Good job!

Hoping to get back into lifting this summer, will post more of that content when I do. Took the previous semester off, but looking forward to getting back to this point and hopefully a little further! Id love to eventually join the 500lb bench club but thats likely going to take me awhile.

Yeah, I am getting back into working out after taking a semester off. Would love to get back to this point and do it closer to competition standard, this was for sure bouncy + my dad didnt let go quick on the descent. 424.4lb is my competition pr, so not too far off tho

Don't want to sound like a "hater" or anything, but judging by his form he looks like he picked up the barbell for the first time in his life. If that is the real weight we can expect 450 kg bench press from this guy in a year or two.

@@Joshua_B I am no expert either, but I can see that you didn't pack your shoulders, you are laying flat on the beach with no arc, you went immediately straight down with the barbell without taking a breath and bracing your core and your legs are just dangling out there, you have no leg drive whatsoever. And because of all that you are in a very unstable and compromised position. But you lifted 204 kg anyway??? I am very sceptical to say the least.

@@theprofessional438 My basic idea for legs is just to force my traps into the bench as much as possible during the entire rep, which I set-up before the video starts. I haven't been able to figure out leg drive even though a few friends IRL have mentioned it, it just has never clicked for me. During set-up of the bench I do make sure my shoulder blades are pinched together as much as possible, and I also get a small arc. Nothing egregious, but it is there. Probably easier to see in this short - kzread.infoJsqcba25gxk For skepticism, here is me doing 424lbs in comp (and also includes how I set-up every time, which I normally edit out of short vids) kzread.info/dash/bejne/eZqg0a9se5yeaaQ.html Of course, everyone I know at the gym also says I have bad form (mainly around the absence of leg drive, and not staying "tight" or whatever that means.)

“real weights” yk the bar bends at 225 right

There is a slight bend in the bar. How much are you expecting it to bend? If you want, you can check my channel and see I did 424.4lb in competition well before this as well. Here is the short - kzread.infoPKSsTQqVKPs

@@ibrahim_-_-_ I do a lot of bench. The only program I've used Candito bench program (should be free online) and I've done it twice now and it has worked well. I was already benching 405lb (touch and go) before ever using an actual program by just doing 5x5s and constantly pushing myself. Mindset also plays a huge role. I try to do the same thing every time: Go to the water fountain and have a splash of water, listen to the same song, get into the same thought patterns, and then walk back to the bar. Though sometimes doubt creeps in, that can also help. Fear of catastrophic failure can give you the adrenaline you need.
