How Much Can Some Professional Wrestlers Bench Press?

I've always wanted to see mark Henry on as much juice as Ronnie Coleman

What a monster..
please Henry was juicing like a pig
 
Mark Henry

I am from a town not that far from Silsbee TX. Mark Henry is an ICON there. In school we had weight lifting competitins and that put us up against Silsbee sometimes, so believe me when I tell you that he is not juiced up and I would love for you to take a trip there someday and confront him. That way the tabloids would read retard gets beat by the strongest man.
 
The way that bar bounced I don't think that was fake at all, what source claims this? I am muy curioso.
 
yea, I was just going to reply that I am not sure 100% as I don't know him. I do know that all the olympic weightlifters at the time who were on drugs and were the best in the world still sang his praise as being the strongest man ever because "they knew" he was clean.

The one thing that makes me want to believe him is that he was genetically a huge kid. At age 9 mark Henery already weighed in at 220lbs!! So, drugs or not, it is still safe to say that he is a freak of nature.

I met a kid at on a church trip that weighed 300lbs when he was 12. He transfered to our school when his dad got a job at our church. Some friends and I went to the gym after Wednesday night youth church, and we invited him with us. He could bench press 315 the very first time he ever touched a weight. His form was ugly as shit, but he did it. He came out for football, and sucked because he had the most horrid condditioning, then moved the next year, so I don't know what happened to him.

I'll never forget that there are some genetic freaks out there that are superior to me to matter how hard I try. Thats just life.
 
^ Yes. It is not abnormal that those of us who are NOT gifted and wish we were, to pursue things like weights the hardest. I was never that strong, without training I always benched a little under my bodyweight. So ever since I was a kid I admired strength, and considered being able to defend yourself something highly important. I have a slight paranoia about being victimized, perhaps watching too much Chuck Norris and Charles Bronson when I was a kid! :grin:

There is a big black guy in my gym who can hit 405x10 during a working set, which for me is still so up there that its almost to be unbelieved until you see it. Buddy of mine Brian (also a "big black guy") used to be my size a few years ago, now he has ~21 inch arms at 5'11" although my bench is still better than his, he beats me everywhere else.
 
From what I understand Hulk did reps under 450 , Maxed out raw somewhere between 500-525 in his prime in the early 80's. In the Steroid Era of wrestling , Id imagine the bench /strength rankings would go something like this and I don't see any of these guys maxing more than 550 (but could be wrong just havn't found that information)

Tony Atlas - Dino Bravo - Hulk Hogan - Ultimate Warrior - Animal from the road warriors- "The Barbarian".

The "golden" age of wrestling that is.

Im sure in the late 70's Super Star Billy Graham could have hung with most of them as well , the guy did work out with Arnold at the original golds gym heh.
 
I've seen a handful of guys in the gym that could put up over 500 raw. I even saw a short stocky, lean guy put up 405x6. He prolly weighed no more than 185. I saw a short thick black guy put up 500x2. So, it's rare, but no unheard of. Of course, I'm sure most of those guys were juiced.
 
^^I'd like to see RP for pres also. But, you've gotta know that it's never gonna happen. A niche candidate like RP doesn't have much more of a chance of being elected than a 3rd party candidate. I ain't terribly wild about Mitt, but he appears to be the only one that might have a chance of beating the messiah in 2012. At least he has some real world success in his past while our current POTUS is racking up real world failure each and every day he's in office.

And no thanks on the free bjs. Thanks for offering tho. GYCH!

LMAO ya i no it sucks i no that my vote will be wasted on ron becuase of that reason but hes the fucking man. :pissed: ill have to give Mitt a look and see what hes all about
 
I knew John Cinna before he got into the WWF, he trained and worked at Golds Gym Venice. He could do 6 reps with 405 Raw on bench.

You knew him but you can't even spell his name? He was pretty small before WWE, if he could do that NOW I'd be impressed.

The numbers WWF claimed about height, weight and lifting have historically been inflated - "everyone" knows that. There are only a couple handful of 600 raw benchers in the world, much less was Warrior (he's awesome) doing that 25 years ago.
 
These guys mentioned are all amazingly strong.I can only bench 210 lbs.The problem I have is twofold-I am 74 years old and a Canadian (Canadians rae never very strong)
