Whats the World Record on Raw Bench?

[WalkingBeast]

Was just curious, since this is the way I bench. Any feedback is appreciated. ThanX!

 

[Tenu]

323kg by Scott Mendelson. I´m not sure how official this was. James Henderson did 322,5 kilos in an ipf competition. These are the two biggest.

 

[WalkingBeast]

Nice Seems he gets 165 out of a bench shirt. Thats a fucking strong bench though

 

[Liftbig]

yeah.....
scot mendleson has done 713 raw
james henderson did 711 raw
glen chabots done like 675 raw
kazmaier did 661 raw a long time ago.

quite a club there...the best of the best

 

[slobberknocker]

Jimmy Williams did like 680 I think. He did 700 but it got turned down because he moved his foot.

 

[Becoming]

So by those numbers I guess the true greatness begins at 650+....

Where does someone become unordinary or even elite raw... 500, 600?

Very good question Bump-O ^

Henderson is a beast so is Mendy. Im sure mendy is very capable of doing much more raw now.

what does "raw" mean in terms of benching?

 

[BodybuildingUniverse]

dude i have seen multipe bodybuilders do in the 600's too my best friend does 495 on the incline for 12

I dont think so. FEW go that heavy, or anywhere NEAR that heavy due to the high risk of injury.

 

[WalkingBeast]

what does "raw" mean in terms of benching?

RAW basically means no bench shirt. A belt and elbow wraps are ok.

 

[BodybuildingUniverse]

not to nitpick but elbow wraps are not allowed in raw competition. maybe you mean the pull-up neoprene sleeves? but they probably wouldnt pass inspection either

 

[Liftbig]

elbow wraps arent allowed for benching period. neoprene sleeves are worn in training to counteract elbow pain, but they really dont help the lift at all.
