In Response To: Disrespect? (Arthur "Superman" Jones)

I asked Ryan Kennelly about his RAW Bench ability last year at a meet. He really had no idea what he could do because he does not go anywhere near his max before using his shirt. He told me that he would need some specific training in order to lift his max RAW. He seemed supportive of RAW lifting but was/is just focused on equipped lifting for now.

He did not ever make any claims of any huge RAW lifts, and I don't think he is asking for any credit for gym lifts. Lifting RAW is just different than lifting equipped. Just like you can't put on a shirt for the first time and lift 200 pounds more than your RAW max, a lifter who always trains to lift equipped can't take off the shirt and hit their best RAW max. It's just too different.
