I bought this workout in August. Within the eight weeks everyone said I look bigger and I definitely felt stronger. I'm seeing incredible progress on my second run at it! Thanks again Julius

Julius get that 800 pound bench o hope I live to see that it's always seemed impossible until you came along.

Julius Maddox Should go for 900 lbs, your record will never be broken

Julius Maddox i literally go to my weightlifting class at school and tell my friends about you, your an inspiration man. my max is only 215, i just turned 16 a week ago and I thought i was strong for my age but your like on a whole other level i hope to be on at some point🗣🗣

High school guys in athletics are obsessed with bench press. They will probably all be in awe of you. Like meeting a pro athlete. Too much hero worship for fear about dating your daughter. You will be a bonus. Also I'm liking being able to see the accessory work you put in and the volume before you start working towards peaking really shows that it's not all about the top set but the constant hard work and non glamorous stuff all contributes to success

Julius - there comes a time in a mans life when he has to prove his worth, to back up his bullsfit and do what he is physically and mentally capable of. Eddie Hall realised this when he achieved the 500kg deadlift. You need to realise that you have been put on this earth to achieve the 800lb benchpress, which you WILL DO.

Bob John idk, it’s really dangerous to be training for a 800lb bench press if he actually gets it. Think about it, in training he would probably have to be able to bench 700 for reps and with unreliable spotters that’s extremely dangerous. Plus the weight you already have to get your body too in the first place.
