By junior year I could dunk a basketball with two hands, ran a 4.8 40-yeard-dash, and threw the shot put 58 feet. I was a big kid at 285 pounds and very athletic. I didn't like it and had no interest in it. When did you first start lifting weights?
I plan on breaking the 800-pound record at Wrigley Field before or after the Cubs play the Cardinals on May 18. I just took it for what it was and moved past it.

Typically the judges have to sign off on the weight before the lifter goes for his or her attempt, but this was a crazy situation because ESPN was there covering it. I saw that you had attempted the mythical 800 pounds prior to that, but there was an issue where a spotter added an extra 25 pounds to one side of the bar and ruined it? equipped debate, and more.įirst off, congratulations on being the strongest raw bench presser of all time.

Yet even among our own, there has always been a fascination with that most basic of upper body lifts. As bodybuilders, we get that question fairly often from regular folks who have no idea we focus more on the development of our physiques than the amount of weight we can lift. "How much ya bench?" Every one of us has either asked that question or had others ask us.
