Kevin Levrone Strives for 405lb Bench

In my mind he looks like he could rep 405. So it's a little disappointing.

When it comes to making a plan to increase bench I like the below posted better than what he suggests. I've tried 5x5 with adding ten which is similar to what he suggests. For me this produced MUCH better:

Muscle Media's Benchpress Routine

It's good but leaves out warm up sets. Don't leave warm up out or you'll get hurt.
 
That is the WORST workout music I have ever heard!!!!!! No wonder he cannot bench 405! I would have a hard time with 225 with that music!

I agree. I can't figure it out why they play that crap in gyms. It must be "we have a treadmill so therefor we must play shit music."
 
Thats about how I got my bench up to 405. I started benching 3 times a week. Mon, Weds, and Fri. Shot up there real quick. Of course I was only doing it once a week before.
 
No, just 3 days a week in general. I wouldnt do 4X4 all 3 days.
 
can someone give me some background info on this guy? I mean, I am going to assume something happened to him because in some of his videos he is a steroid monster, then in others he looks like me, then in others he looks like a fatass....so what's up with him?
 
I thought this guy could bench way more than that...Did he take alot of time off or something? And in 20 days? Woa. I've been thinking about trying to get the 405 mark. I'm 315 for two sets of 3 or one set of 5 or 6. I think I'll turn up the heat a little.
 
Isn't 315 the same weight he first used when he started free weight training in his transformation experiment ?

This is a cool looking routine. I'm gonna try it... how much was your increase on your bench?
 
If he used an arch and leg drive he could probably do it.

Well, it's going to seem like a lot. When I started it I was just getting off a rotator cuff injury that had decreased my ability. So I shot up better than 60lbs. That was in 9 weeks and 14 workouts.

I'm going through it again right now after being off it for a month. I'm to workout number 9 I'm up another 20lbs. I do bench about every 5 days or so.

I like it because it works and it keeps me from over training my rotator cuff. I have a bad habit of doing to many sets.

I'm going to apply this program to other lifts.
