Owen Hubbard - 777kg 3rd Place 83kg - IPF World Classic Powerlifting Championships 2018

[@ZeTerr0r]

To everyone mocking his bench Thats the sport Do what you can to win Rules are rules And he is following them The other guys have the opportunity to do this so called " partial " too

[@HenryNintendoNerd]

nobody complain its unfair. people are mocking it because it just looks stupid. and i say that as a powerlifter myself. that ROM bench will be mocked till the end of time because objectively it looks stupid

[@LetterToGodFromMeToYou]

That's why people mock powerlifters. It just looks dumb. I'd rather be repping 225 with full ROM than whatever this was.

[@JohnmillerPowerlifting]

Only idiots make a fool of something they don't understand. Every comment about bench arch or sumo is just made by weak lifting who one don't understand what it's like to be the best in any sport and two, will never earn any form of accolade in any sport. It takes a carton type of person to reach the level that these guys are at in any sport. Rules are there to be followed but also to be exploited to the maximum limits. Just look at any sport and you will see that's what winners do. Losers just complain and moan.

[@LetterToGodFromMeToYou]

@@JohnmillerPowerlifting Ultimately, what's the point being the strongest powerlifter? It's worse for your health than other competitive lifts. Bragging rights? Pride? That's the foundation of why people look down on powerlifters. Because it's really a competition of ego lifting. It's really the same type of ego competition as body building, but the difference is that you look like shit doing it.

[@philheathslegalteam]

@@LetterToGodFromMeToYou care to elaborate on why it is worse for your health? Also, you don't look like shit doing it, Owen looks great, Orhii looks great. I have a feeling you don't look anywhere near as good as any of these guys yet u complain here like the pussy you are.

[@hindy51]

I love the way he setup his bench.

[@sfz0161]

He sets up up like a fucking retard. And youre one too

[@Yasill_Spiritual_Lifting]

Only the bro lifters make fun of his bench, the real lifters know his bench is an art

[@huyhoangbui4412]

Nope only unathletic powerlifter with zero functional strength zero aesthetic physique nerdy cheater could appreciate that lmao at dem shitty form brah.

[@jelloshaha]

One day there will be someone with a zero rom bench

[@Teme44]

😂

[@seryip]

The fact that at the end of a video there's a zoom in on the word "bull" pretty much sums up this guy's attitude

[@ThumbWiggler]

owen surprised everyone here

[@ryankim9203]

He is not just a sturdy one, also with consistency within i can tell. He knew what it likes to be slow and steady wins the race.

[@TrevorCockerson]

Owens bench rom is like 6 inches

[@페퍼K]

bob Jenkins so what it's powerlifting. The one with highest total wins, regardless of form / rom / etc.

[@conalls2480]

He just has a mechanical advantage in his back arch, same way guys with long arms have less ROM for a deadlift

[@LebronisgoodMJsuckz]

Sam H hey mines 3 inches ya never know man

[@mag537]

Not even 6 inches. Nice excuse for a sport. lol

[@TrevorCockerson]

Sam H maybe if your nose touches the bench before your shoulder blades do. Anything’s possible

[@JEatoaol]

“Got a lot of fans of the bad news”

[@yangmetastasi2048]

Triplo sette su ogni cosa

[@Vatsuggggg]

Great energy!

[@LummyTum]

Jesus this guy has insane ROM on the bench...

[@uchihamadara1569]

I think he had more in him

[@JohnmillerPowerlifting]

he said that himself

[@AitorSanshou]

maan, thats almost a partial

[@kindafatkindastrong5683]

Rip his bench if ipf is gonna ban overarching

[@EmoPeter2000]

How do you propose they do that whilst also taking into consideration the varying heights and body measurements of the competitors?

[@yeshuasage3724]

@980765 how?

[@EmoPeter2000]

@980765 So how about the big guys like Ray Williams, where they can be flat on their backs and the upper arm still won't break parallel?

[@EmoPeter2000]

@980765 I was using him to illustrate a point. Ipf judges are notoriously strict with squat depth, but the difference here is that there will undoubtedly be people with arms short enough or a torso thick enough to make it incredibly difficult to break parallel. There is always more space to go with a squat, not so much with bench.

[@EmoPeter2000]

@980765 Yh exactly. I was reading about how hip torque is the same in sumo as it is in conventional. It really is just a matter of smaller details like fatigue on the day of the meet, shorter time gripping the bar and altering leverages to your favour.

[@jamesdaley1852]

aaa intersting so i only have to bring my bench down half way and go back up and now i have done a full rep ?i always thought that you have to bring all the way down to your chest with your back fully on the bench and then its a full rep...huh i do half reps so i can practice getting to the full rep ...anywaaaaay...

[@JohnmillerPowerlifting]

if you bench press with your back fully on the bench then please get a coach or do some research on how to perform the movement correctly.

[@slobodan619]

1:37 bruh 😂

[@chilitopo7663]

el apoya los hombros y la espalda no la apoya , hace un arco es trampa

[@edup.1028]

según quien?

[@iAnglesClan2]

I'm so glad he got rid of his cringe set ups. Especially on his dead lifts lmao

[@claytoncunningham8770]

God that bench is stupid. All they need to do is add one little line and all these hyper archers would be fucked. "Upper arm must be at or below parallel in the bottom position." Still leaves plenty of room to arch and eliminates this quasi cheating bullshit.

[@hussleman2334]

if that bench is legit, then kipping pullups are legit LMAO

[@ElRifrawad]

You probably cant bench over 100 kilos lmaooooooo

[@jordynrainbird9334]

@@ElRifrawad I could if I only did like 6 inches hahahaha

[@AlecF234]

His bench is a joke.

[@k65379]

you to

[@AlecF234]

nice one. almost as good as his bench

[@k65379]

If your bench is better. You should be the powerlifer on IPF，not be heve.

[@zuhrymousa12345]

That Bench LMAO joke

[@swagmassa6702]

I agree but it's part of powerlifting.

[@vredneckv]

Solid numbers, but the way he does his set ups is so fucking cringy.

[@heto_7111]

lmao wanker set ups, can't respect that bench, but nice squats and deads
