can u bech press 475 naturaly?

bottomline I think is you have to give the guy his props regardless of what he may or may not be taking. It's not like you or I are going to bench 475 magically after popping a pill or getting pricked. Strong is strong.

exactly.... it took work no matter how they got there...

BBFinaplex- I got your back dude.... I put up 450+ in college first time at 215-225.... only peeps who can't say it is impossible

this guy in my gym benchs 475 for 5-6 reps as a routine every time he comes to the gym. Thats the heaviest weight i have ever seen benched before, so i went and i asked about his diet and routine and chated with him for a while. after that i played dump and asked him if he juices and he told me that he never uses any anything than protein shake. he is short fat as hell and he tolde me that hes lifting for 7 years now. is he lying? can you bench that much without roids?........

Some people are just naturelly strong... i can't bench 475 w/or w/out juice so who cares!!

some people are quoting some big numbers here. but hey, I guess on the internet you can be as strong as you want to!

 

[satchboogie]

you may think i'm joking but i can bench 515 about 12 times...
ounces that is.

Not even close...Clean or not....315 for 5 is my best...I suck at bench

True that...but I know what I did do in my college days and that was before I became what I am now.....and I did hit 425. Natural...no Anabolics.....no prohormones, just diet and genetics. I weighed 250....now at 34 raw I hit 350-370 depending on cycle length and duration.

Loan me a digital camera and I will make you a tape so you can watch it yourself....

its possible, for sure. there is a powerlifter in my town, that is ranked 1 in canada, and he is completely natural and benches a lot more then that. he is short and fat as hell, but hella strong

this same powerlifter is the one who taught me how to deadlift and squat, I've seen him do close grip bench on incline on that weight, so I know it can be done. Hell, this guy also has a 900lb squat in competition

 

[cartoonman]

no way, the dudes bull shitting. then again he could have 1 inch arms and be like 300 pounds and 5ft tall. then it may be possible but still.unlikely

I know a guy who is our strength and conditioning coach on my football team...huge guy..like 6'4 320...probably at his prime. I doubt he did steroids and he told me he used to bench 450...

So basically, big huge guys can do it...but i doubt many at lower weight ranges would be able to attain such a number.
