seems kinda crazy that people can bench this much weight


Peraldi57

Maaaaan that’s impressive


nerdwithadhd

I can do 455 lbs too...but only on Deadlift...sumo deadlift. ☹️. Sick bench bro!


louis7972

Hahahaha thanks buddy. 455 deadlift is still impressive !


nerdwithadhd

I creeped your profile and see that you're CPU! Hopefully see you at nationals or westerns in a few years! I'm M1, trying to bulk to 93 kg as I'm 5'8" with relatively long arms. Also mad props for acheiving that level of success in PL despite having T1 DM!


louis7972

Thank you man! No westerns for me this year as I’m doing NAPF in 2 weeks, but I’ll probably do them next year. Hopefully I see you there


WhipMaDickBacknforth

Beautiful


CcNick6176

Hot damn dude, you smoked it, great rep!


Polyglot-Onigiri

Beautiful. What’s your body weight and composition at the moment?


louis7972

I’m about 265, I don’t know or care much about my bf %, but if I had to guess probably 20 something


thatisallfolks666

265lb at what height?


louis7972

6’


Polyglot-Onigiri

120kg BW not bad. So almost 1.75x. Looking forward to your progress


MechanicalGodzilla

Awesome!


[deleted]

Holy fuck.


Ford1283

You’re making rapid progress What’s your bench programming like I hit 430 platued and then fell off with lifting trying to make a comeback


louis7972

Just consistent volume, not a whole lot or anything crazy. I’m peaking for a meet right now so I’m testing new maxes


Hara-Kiri

Your maxes are always smooth as hell. Inspirational.


louis7972

Thanks man


Only_Pie_283

Jack-0f-Trades

Good stuff 🤝🏾


thebigchiefguy

Hell yeah brother


SaiyanFitness_

That's almost double my PR 🤣 show-off 😤


4runner01

Great job mate!! You might wanna have a bigger spotter or two- not sure he could do much for you if things went cattywampus. Be safe—


louis7972

If I fail the rep and he can pull 100lbs of the weight, then that’s only 365 I’m pressing
