The world record raw bench-press is 715lbs. by a guy named Scott Mendelson and he also broke the world record with the bench press of about 1,015lbs.(shirted)

Those are some CRAZY fucking numbers. I can’t even imagine doing 400, nevermind 700 lbs with no shirt. Jesus.

BTW, Magnus. When I say aesthetics, I don’t mean size. I mean, being lean and ripped, and also being symetrical. Because of that, I go by a different routine all together. I want good proportion to all my muscles and clear definition, as well. Because of this, I do a totally different style. But, again, to each his own! :slight_smile:

WTF??? I seriously doubt any shirt is going to help a guy bench an extra fucking 300lbs:confused:

My raw bench is 390 and with a shirt, I can barely get 415!!

man you might need to train in your shirt more…you should be getting way more than 25lbs out of it!!

What the hell does the shirt do again? It keeps you in a weird form, and is very rigid… but can someone explain to me what it is? Does it help with muscle development or is it just for putting up big power numbers?

it is just for putting up big numbers…essentially the shirt acts as a spring, so when you come down with the bar, it is way easier to push it up…

and shirts will help a guy bench an extra 300lbs LOL, just take a look at the world records…

LOL It’s called a “bench shirt” for a reason. Also, you can’t just put on a bench shirt and think you can magically lift over 200 more lbs. than what you can do raw. You have to TRAIN in it. And I must ask, have you actually worn a bench shirt?

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME…LOL. Read my quote above idiot,

“My raw bench is 390 and with a SHIRT, I can barely get 415!!”

I’ve competed in over a dozen APF meets and never placed under third!
Like I said before, there FUCKING NO WAY A SHIRT IS GOING TO ASSIST ANYONE 300 EXTRA POUND ON THE BENCH!!

At most if your wearing a double ply denom shirt, it might help up to 150lbs to 200lbs, but I ONLY WEAR A OLD ASS SINGLE PLY “INZER” NYLON SHIRT, THATS WHY ITS ONLY ABOUT 25 LBS HELP. Plus in a meet you actually have to pause it a full second on your chest before you can lift, which make a big difference.

Next time you talk shit to someone, you might want to do your research on the person first douch bag:rofl: Oh yea, i forgot you can squat over 700lbs and have no pics to prove it…LOL

Your whole post is pointless. It doesn’t matter how many times you’ve competed in APF meetings that you’ve claimed you did, you still don’t know how a bench shirt functions. If you compete in these meets that you’ve claimed you did, then you’d KNOW that a bench shirt can add a few more hundred lbs. over your RAW bench, ONLY IF you train in it. I’m sure that whoever runs your “APF” meetings would tell you how a bench shirt works. We see who the real idiot is, and that’s you. And I don’t take pics and videos to prove my lifts, that’s just something I don’t do, young man. Now get to bed.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

“CLAIM” my ass, everyone on this trend knows what i look like, so i dont need to claim shit!!:lovin:

Too bad everyone on this trend thinks your full of SHIT!!:rofl:

“APF MEETINGS”…:rofl: :rofl: LOL:rofl: :rofl:

It’s called a “Meet” you dickless wonder, you must be thinking of “AA Meetings”:rofl: :rofl:

“dickless wonder”? Get real child, nobody asked what you looked like, you’re off track. The WHOLE point here is that you DON’T know how a bench shirt functions. And what in the world is an “AA meeting”? You’re typing nonsense here.

Is oatmeal like magic? I hear it a lot when it comes to working out.

nah, it’s just a good complex carb with a little bit of protein and some fiber. Cheap and easy to make. I eat it every morning. Lots of people grind it up in their protein shakes for carbs instead of spiking their insulin levels with dextrose.

Anyone happen to know if white rice has carbs in it?

Sounds like a joke, but you’d be surprised by the GIANT lack of fiber in all of our pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-processed food.


Hm…chewing down my protein powder instead of chugging it. Interesting.

Takes time to make oatmeal right?

Isn’t rice a bunch of simple carbs?

Brown rice is complex carbs.

White rice is a starchy carb…brown rice is complex…

Like I said, they grind up the oats in their shake…haven’t tried it myself, but it’s getting pretty popular so it can’t be that bad.

Oatmeal is easy…I microwave mine…it cooks while I cook the rest of my breakfast. Half cup of oats, cup of water, little salt…microwave for 2.5 minutes…add some splenda and oila.

Why dont you show me how a bench works with a pic of yourself using one…:rofl: :rofl:

I doubt if your stupid ass can even bench 225:rofl: :rofl:
