What's the lowest?

I was a judge in one bench competition and one 310lbs guy benched 95kg (210lbs) and I almost gave him red light cause I was so pissed he had nerve to come bench that kind of numbers. My fucking mother who's +60 benches more.

Remember perk:

1) Everyone's gotta start somewhere

2) Even at the beginning, every comp is valuable experience. I bombed on 225 at a bw of about 195 or so in my first meet.

Some people enter meets for the fun of it. I don't have any problems with people that aren't "strong" entering. I've been in meets where the winner of my weight class could have skipped the bench press and still beat my total
