    In my experience is its just a male thing to talk up how much you bench. Just as Im sure every dude says they have a bigger dick then they actually do.

    I bench what I bench, which is a little over my bodyweight, and I never do any less than 6 reps unless I keep doing sets to failure. Sometimes I feel like a bit of a weak **** when dudes come tell me they can life like 120kg (260 pounds) when they weight about the same as me. Then I actually see what they can actually lift.

    Its always at least 10kg less and they can only do one shitty half a rep. Then all the excuses come out, "I wasnt warmed up" "I havent been training" "Im injured", "I thought the bar weighed more".
    They are just cheating themselves in the end.

    Note: My dick is ****ing huge :lol: :tong

    like you said...obviously..a strong strong man though...(this ain't no powerlifting competition)...still impressive for a guy of his size.

    The fact he said 1 day he can only bench 260 and another day he can bench 460 gives you no doubts?

    A person who weighs less should get no extra credit for the same amount of weight moved.

    I have read some of your posts on the training forum, and you have not been training for very long.

    The biggest factor in determining who can bench what, is the time they have spent working on it.

    The guy could bench a friggin' ton, and it still isn't gonna help with that china chin of his. Look for him to get starched - again - by Golota!:yep

    I've seen Rahman rep over 400 lbs at the 24 hour fitness on Trop and Decatur here in Las Vegas while Leonard Ellerbe just kind of walks around the gym. Rahman is immensely, immensely strong, both in legs and the upper body. I think an athlete of that size should be able to get to that level if they train for it, but I agree it is a waste of time to train for high, high bench numbers when you are fighting.

    Floyd comes in there but I've never seen him lift - just go play basketball.

    until i see someone actually bench what they say, i never beleive it, 99% of the time people inflate their numbers, i dont beleive mcbride can bench 460 or close to it
