Like ronnie would've said ...light weight

ROnnie benched 495pounds for 8 reps so i think he wouldnt be able to do 505 for 9
but ronnies form was crap, ben went all the way up and down, ronnie went up maybe 4 inches from his chest if ronnie was gonna do 505 with bens form i doubt he would get more than 2-3.
Ben still used a shirt.
Ronnie would have done it with out a bench shirt.
true true, i kinda forgot about that
but still, limiting the range of motion as much as ronnie does must really take away from ones benching.
i just watched dennis wolfs DVD the beginning. and he also did it like ronnie, just benching in the bottom range. is there anything to gain from doing ones chest presses like this? ive always believed in a full range of motion, but dennis chest is fucking great, so it seems to work for him, i know that doesent make it correct, but still im just curious as to whether there is any advantages to doing it that way.
He might...but ronnie does not bench 711lbs raw
Don't know if he ever tried.
Have you a video or pic of Ben doing it?
No I cant find it right now...It was on a competition anyway..I dont know if it was with or without shirt..but I remember him saying in a interview with MD that he can do 711lbs raw
Ben has said a lot of things and one of the things is that he can out-squat JOJ even though Ben do not squat.
Ben is an entertaining guy but I wouldn't believe everything he says.
