    I'll tell ya what! Your waistline seems really narrow in those pics! I'm impressed with that at 6'2" and over 300lbs. Your strength is outstanding too!

    Nice work bro!

    Oh yeah, you can easily be a member of the "MJBBMOFOC" Mighty Joe Big Bad MoFo Club!

    Those are some big weights,......but, still not overly impressive for your size. I powerlifted for the Army for a couple of years. I weighed 148lbs, and I benched 305 in comps. That's more than double my body weight, and still nowhere near the records. The bench records for that weight class is over 400lbs.

    Big guys like you lift HUGE weight, and it's impressive. But when you factor in that you weigh 320, you get the idea. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking you at all, it's still impressive. But you have tons of extra potential to lift bigger weight than where you are now.

    Keep slinging the iron around and you will be there someday. Anytime someone benches double their body weight, I'm super impressed.

    9000rpm,

    Thanks for replying. Just two comments...
    1) Most records are "shirted". My lifts are unshirted. Did you bench with a shirt in those powerlifting meets?
    2) When it comes to benching, length of arms plays a huge roll. Many guys of short stature also have short arms and this is a huge advantage. Yes I am over 300lbs, but my arms are long and much of that weight is in my legs (not much help in doing bench).

    Keep training hard!

    NoobJuice,

    No gyno, poor photo quality casts a shadow. Better photos next time. Just bought a digicam.

    When I did 305 it was unshirted. I don't brag about shirted records. I didn't squat 595 once while wearing a squat suit though. My most ever benched while shirted at that weight class was 345lbs.

    As for the short arms, yes you are right, but you have a large chest that will help you out much more than us short guys. I'm sure your chest is probably near 50 inches or more. Mine is like 38 to 42 inches. So you don't have to come down as far as I do.

    Don't get me wrong, your weights are still very impressive.
