i don't get it.

Did you watch the video? He made his own bench shirt out of a tee shirt and duct tape.

I'm sure McGyver would have done the same thing if he were into powerlifting. That man also had one of the finest crafted beer bellies I've seen in quite some time. He certainly wins my respect.

He can drink his beer. I assure you.

[adidamps2]

wierd...not overly impressed though.

 

[BigRonWannabee]

I give props to his belly, that thing was about the most impressive part of the video.

I feel like i just watched an event at the special olympics.

 

[AngryMuscles]

Off the subject: At competitions like that do you always have to lower the bar at such a slow speed? I could have left and made a sandwich and he's still be decending

I think he's been knocked up, some months ago.

If you wear a really tight shirt, its going to come down slowly. Plus bar placement is pretty damn important, while not optimal that is how I lifted raw when I did maxes because I was injury prone otherwise. Unfortunately for a raw lifter this kills the stretch-reflex response.

I've posted this before, but you can observe below the damage a LOOSE fitting single ply poly shirt does to you. Now imagine a double ply that is 2.5" tighter, or even more (given 4 guys putting it on you, not one chick like in my case), cutting into you on the way down.

He's not lowring it that slow the shirt is. He's fighting the shirt. Trying to get it to touch.

Nice war marks mudge.

HAHAHAHA....dude that guy had a basketball for a gut. And no offense to those type of people (dont get me wrong they have incredible strength compared to me)...but they only need to lower the bar and inch or two bc they are so big.
