WOW
DAMN!!!
damn, i thought he was gonna drop for a second even lol
Hacks!!
Damn these kids now a days.
Freaky..
On another site, it'd only be a matter of time before seeing posts trying to diminish this accomplishment.
They were bashing him like crazy over on PM.... Freakin idiots! Saying crap like it's all cuz of the drugs, the shirt added 250-300 pounds to his bench, he probably couldn't do 250 shirtless, etc... Any of our power lifter guys or strength athletes here will know right off the bat that all that stuff is bs.Quote:

I knew there was no way anyone could credit the shirt with that much of an increase. He probably does 525+ raw. What's your guess, Rodja?Quote:

It's hard to say, but I wouldn't venture too far away from 600. The closed back limits the amount you get out of the shirt because he's not able to jack it down too much. The dude is built to PL, though. Good thoracic mobility, shortish arms, low center of gravity.Quote:

Even more impressive then! I'm gonna have to check for other videos now.Quote:

Shit...I was wrong about him breaking Mark Henry's total. That was actually another TX kid from this past weekend.
What was Mark H's total? Any idea who the other kid was?Quote:

He's 18, 6'2" and 305-315 depending on which profile you read. That is one big, strong, kid!!!
