OK mike ohearn Jr. Rant city

[@elittehassan5382]

So the issue with 735 was that the guy on the left helped with lift off and the guy in the right didn't. So to avoid an imbalance they decided for only Larry to lift off for 790. The only problem was that it made the lift off slower. They should have had Larry and both guys on the side lift off in cue. Because of the slow down and time under tension Julius flared out too quick trying to utilize his energy before it was used up. Other than that every other cylinder was firing off.

One of the realist comments I seen on KZbin when it comes fitness. I stand by this 👍🏿

Just like seeing Brothers enjoying each others company. Crazy energy when we unite!

[@aasimyousaf2455]

Brilliant video. You said it best Larry, he's a modern day gladiator

[@kevinfromelizabethtowncoll4006]

If Julius fails to bench something, you know it is HEAVY as some serious SHIT.

[@raywright1169]

Man getting ready for a PR and having that energy and adrenaline is truly truly addicting

[@Love4Hardstyle]

Damn that was scary when the weight went towards his face. With those weights you want to bring your own spotters because i've seen way too many times that the spotters absolutely fucked up.

[@elitradesmomentum]

The spotter on the left has no clue how to spot🤦🏻‍♂️

[@brandonreed8863]

Very impressive here. I learned a lot. Always working to improve my form on the bench. I’m currently maxxing at 265. Working towards 315. Thank you guys for these great videos!!! 🙂

[@kemaratkins1275]

Keep working on it you will get there.

[@jtgurney4556]

What’s the update on 315? Did you hit it yet

[@herb2078]

That’s the first time Iv properly watched julius bench. Wow, the man cuts no corners what so ever. That’s proper competition standard training, a proper pause, not bouncing very impressive. Master at work 👍

[@dirge4november84]

I think Larry should become an actor, I think he totally has it within him to do it......Next action hero maybe?

Crazy thing is Julius is in treacherous unknown territory, it is possible that this is impossible even in perfect conditions, that is what makes this so damn exciting. His strength is unheard of, if anyone can do it it is him.

[@JHMninja89]

he wants a 900 lb bench

[@brax0210]

I think Julius has over 800 in him on that platform with all the energy in the stadium he will get it no doubt

[@n_a8917]

Great to see men working together, correcting each other, supporting each other and pushing each other. Need more of this in our world today. Keep it up fellas!

[@ThePrepAquatic]

When Julius was talking about how the small normally insignificant things can throw him off that he tries to correct before the lift such as non straight bench or uneven floor.....that's actually a sermon for success in life! What little things that can change or "injure" our entire lives just because we overlook them because they are small.

[@Holycryptonite47]

Oh yeah Larry and the boys lifting everyone's *COMBINED* PR in a gym.

[@sallopez5684]

19:55 Julius has so much explosiveness that it makes his hand open a bit at the top of the rep 🤯

[@KSizbored4life]

Damn I tried going a little closer on the grip like Julius said and it ended up breaking me out of a bench plateau, thank you Julius

[@osenglish]

So you’d recommend a closer grip for a stronger bench? I’d always though it’d be weaker

[@dragonvarine7553]

@@osenglish It does but it depends on your leverages. Also closer grip activates more tricep and shoulder which when built just overall increases bench press. I broke out of my plateu by going wider. So it depends

[@dennisrobinson8008]

A narrower to medium grip with engaged lats is what the big boys are using.

[@masoomshafi7406]

35:00 when Larry needs a pep talk just to spot that's how you know the level Julius is at.

I successfully benched 75 pounds last night, although my right wrist was aching. I'll keep working and I'll get that 80 pounds soon enough. Using Julius and Larry as inspiration.
