1000 pound bench press
Gene Rychlak, the world record holder of heaviest bench press of 1005 pound. This video is about him bench pressing 965 pound. I tried to look for the 1005 pound but I can’t find it.
It is true he hold the world record. However, I don’t like power lifting for these reason
1. It is not health. These people spent their whole life working for one rep on one move. You can see his body is not balance. Also, he add way too much pressure on his joint and bone.
2. they are not doing it clean. You can see his arm didn’t move more than 10 inches. He can’t even put the weight back to the rack. Can you say it is one full rep?
3. they are using bench shirt pull his arms forward and his shoulders in. Without the bench shirt, there is no way they can bench this much. They get help from the bench shirt so it is not nature anymore
4. I am sorry to say it but you guy look retarded
These people works day and night just to put more weight on the bar. For me it is just a number game. It doesn’t prove you are strong because it is just one rep. Seriously, no one else in the world care about power lifing
