GENE RYCHLAK JOINS LIFTINGS GREATS AS HE IS INDUCTED INTO THE YORK BARBELL HALL OF FAME
LOL--ok i'll admit that I was wrong! There IS someone who can bench 1000lbs
---but I am talking about NATURAL lifting! i.e. that guy is juiced as hell MAybe you misunderstood me before.....
I AM a powerlifter: in the ADFPA ( American Drug Free Powerlifting Asociation ) and the WNPF (World Natural Powerlifting Federation) Those guys in the IPA--are all a bunch of juicers Hell If I 'juiced' sure I probably would be able to do 600lbs or more I am tested before EVERY meet and as far as I am concerned those that 'juice'---i.e. CHEAT---LOL i don't consider them REAL lifters!
So, yes I do admit I was 'wrong'---there is someone out there who can do a 1000lbs bench.....BUT.....'natural'?!?! I don't think so
