In Response To: No way, WW (Jim Ray)

Their are a lot of guys that bench 500 raw that dont compete. Yes it is a good bench, a damn good bench. You dont have to do it in a meet to be capable of it. Yes it is much more impressive if it is done in a meet. As far as what you believe about me or what I have done, that dosnt mean nothing to me, because I dont use the internet to blow my own little horn. I was just using my set of 8, after partying and drinking as a example. Im sure that a lot of the big benchers of any era could have done the same thing, or even more. It was in the gym and dosnt matter anyways. I did however hit a 705 at the first arnold classic, after being up all night and drinking almost a case of beer. The bottom line is though, this is only benching, it is a hobby, and its not that big of a deal. Most of us lift to have a good time, and to try to get stronger, and could care less what anybody thinks. I will say this though, even though I dont agree with very many of your post, your 515 raw bench at 48 years old was impressive, even if you said so yourself. A real powerlifter gives credit where crdit is due, and trys to promote the sport as much as they do their selfs. Stay stong and keep hitting those good benchs big guy. Just loosen up a little, its only benching.
