1000 lb bench... possible?

[Lat]

an 810 bench and natural?? holy shit dude. Havent you ever wondered "what if?" as far as the high strength supps? Any plans to maybe take a shot at the USAPL records wearing something like the fury? Not sure what the Mens record is for your weight class but it sure seems like you'd have a shot at it if you are truly drug free.

just curious, what do your other lifts look like? I know you're a specialist

I am natural, but I really don't like the USAPL. Kinda snobby, and their claim of drug free is crap--they have just as many guys on the stuff as anywhere.

I have wondered what if, but then my bench will jump another 20 pounds and I think, hell, I don't need any help.

My best raw deadlift is 605, and my best raw squat is 590. I didn't squat for about 5 years, and I have only been back at it on and off for 2 years now. I'm not real serious about either lift, so I am sure if I put some effort into it I could be into the 700's raw. But I think that would hurt my bench, so why bother??

i agree. there's no way all those lifter "can" be drug-free. i've wondered about it myself from time to time but never gone past it because its not worth it!! rather make my mark "drug-free". tb

With new materials synthetics, and technology this will eventually be a do-able thing.

ya i think a 1000 will happen in the next 5 years

 

[WalkingBeast]

Yeah, I have done 800 and 810. Thanks!

I think within 2 years 1000 will fall. There are guys out there benching mid-700's raw. I can get over 200 out of my shirt, and I think there is more there if I learn to find it.

UnFUCKING believable!! Your a HUGE inspiration!!!!!!! Awesome work!

You cannot ignore history. Someone will bench over 1000 someday. Through history we have become stronger and bigger and science continues to advance.

Hmnn

what do you think the max natural bench is/can be?

I would think it'd depend even more on your genetics than a drug enhanced bodybuilder. Some are built much bigger and stronger than are others.

But I would think within the next 10 years we'll have a steriod that is capable of counteracting at least some of the more serious sides, and the amount of gear a person can take will increase, thus increasing all these lifts. It only takes a dedicated scientist and someone willing to train hard.

People outside the sport usually think it's all about drugs.
