Sloppy form, I would give him 7 clean reps at most.

Seemd like he had quite a bounce too it.

Still, frigging amazing.

Most raw bench competitions you are allowed to touch and go, and thats not much of an indentation for 505 pounds. Just because Kevin is slower and weaker does not make it better.

Kevin is good for a clean 500x5 that I've seen, and yes his triceps were awesome.

He isn't a bodybuilder, spending time parked under the bar is the last thing a performance minded person will do.

Same reason football players have their benches rated by seconds, you want power, not pussies.

Yeah, but doesnt the bounce just act as a foreign force helping the lift? Isn't that just like someone helping the bar up a bit. He isn't the full source of that power, right? The bounce is supplying extra.

You can wrap it in pretty paper and put some perfume on it but it will still be sloppy reps

Do you pause each and every rep on your chest before you press? If not then you are using stretch reflex and gosh that is helping your lift.

I never try to pause it, I try to push it back up fast once it get to the bottom. I was just always told never bounce the weight off the chest, especially for powerlifters. I'm just confused.

Sloppy reps to a bodybuilder whose goal is to build as much muscle as possible, yes, but that's not what powerlifters are about.

Just so you know, powerlifters "bounce" off their chest a lot, especially in training, in meets they're usually required to tone it down a bit.

Ben White in that video doesn't bounce much at all compared to the powerlifters I train with.

Still it is impressive what he did.

Good shit, who sings that first song "time" in the video? Thanks!

no 1? please>??? pretty please???

I thought the tunes were all from Levrones band

wtf? he has a band?

Kevin does vocals, thats old news. I think he is concentrating only on the acting, but maybe he does some summer gigs.

ha, he's tried everything to get famous like Arnold did, he did BB, had a band, now trying the whole acting thing. I hope he gets somewhere.
