[@stevensenko3238]

Chubb’s is way more impressive then barkley’s T. rex arms

[@sullystpatrick]

His arms seem "short" relative to his weight, if so that makes for a bench pressing edge. Less distance for the bar to travel makes all the difference in rep output. As a random example Dillon at 6:50 has much more distance to cover in order to achieve full lockout which makes high reps more difficult. Same principle applies to deadlifts, barbell squats etc Not to say Barkley isnt much stronger than a guy like #27 (7:53) who did 17 while also having short arms

[@horusreed6058]

Even crazier is Jerick Mckinnon has the RB record at 32 reps. You would never expect that just hearing his voice lol

That is some insane bounce bench strength

[@computerman91.]

What do you call those plates that fit together?

[@AaronSmith561]

interlocking plates

[@michaelmiller5194]

An old gym meathead. In my younger days at 5'11 195 lbs. on any given day bang out thirty reps at 225 on a flat bench. On decline forty to forty five reps. Now in my mid fifties the shoulders are shot. I'm still in the gym but haven't benched in years. Not sure I could even do one rep without a lot of pain.

[@bennitzsche4637]

Ok

[@reyza1899]

what killed your shoulders?

[@09thespecialone]

@@reyza1899Bench pressing obviously. Even if you do it with “good” form, you will pay sooner or later. One of the many reasons I’m against bench pressing. Matter of fact, my focus has always been strict overhead pressing. Shoulder blades move freely, it’s more athletic and more impressive once you can press huge poundages above the head (your whole body is the stabilizer not the bench).

[@greenpigking6974]

Sure you did

[@MasterInHD]

The difference between decline and flat bench press is 7%. How did you do 200% more? I think you’re capping

Who else watches this while they hit their set on the bench?

Ron Simmons did 48 times in a row when trying out for the Browns in the 80s. His locker is enshrined at Florida St Uni. Lex Luger and Mark Henry told stories how insanely strong and powerful that guy is during his wrestling days.

[@adamweber1545]

Notice they are repping 225 without some crazy arched back form. The reps are legit.

[@jawa7401]

This is light work. I just turned 12 and warmup with 30 reps of 405

I bet you’re in the top 1-3% of the world lifting that much. These dudes are the top .0001%. Pretty hard to compare yourself to these guys.

[@zidanesfather5719]

The wider the grip the shorter the distance - the easier the rep. Plus bouncing off your chest and also raising your chest off the bench to meet the bar as you pull down makes it easier. It’s not just strength it’s strategy. Powerlifting.

[@fizzle2323]

Look at DK Metcalf’s bench, regular grip, and the guy right after him too

[@zidanesfather5719]

@@fizzle2323 most of the combine athletes are doing it without strategy is what I'm saying, hence their numbers could be higher if they made it easier by following what I described which is what the tv presenter did and he also partially explained as to why he achieved 45 reps.

[@michaelangelo5783]

Yeah, powerlifters look like cheaters compared to the average bodybuilder.

I'm 185 and I don't bench press at all. Last month I said that my gift for my 43rd birthday was to bench 225. My birthday is 2/24 and I got it. I had a little help but I made it. I never knew how impressive this bench press is until now

[@alvarezgamers]

When I was about 26 I was 190 solid. I could do 225 30 reps and 275 10 reps. The good old days. Now at 43 I can only do 225 10 reps and 275 about 4 reps. Time flys.

[@michaelangelo5783]

I hear ya, I did 255x12 at 20yrs old at slightly puffy 200lbs (think i was at 19% BF), never pushed heavier as that was about my peak training. At nearly 40, I still lift but hold myself to 205 on bench as I had a rotator cuff injury/surgery from a mountain biking crash in my late 20s. Time does fly but don't you still feel like a kid? But then i think back to all the crazy stuff I did on motorcycles, quads and cars (I was a gearhead before fast and the furious came out my senior year of high school) and couldn't fathom doing that shit again 😅

[@jayhooks6031]

Wow! there's another Jay Hooks out there that lifts. When I first saw the post I was like, "when the hell did I post that?" then I seen how old you are. I'm 60, started lifting at 52, can still do 9 -10 reps at 225. Keep grinding.
