    What do you think of this powerlifter?

    Hi all,
    I would appreciate if you could find a minute to take a look at the video here and let me know what you think

    YouTube - Russian powerlifter to set new benchmark
    (footage by Russia Today TV)

    I'm new to powerlifting, and just can't figure out whether this guy is legitimate or there's something wrong with him. What's your opinion?
    Thank you and have a good day!

    I dont understand what you are asking, it's just a guy benching and doing incline db press. Are you asking if you think the weight he is lifting is actually real? I think it is.

    "This guy weighs just over 100kg and can bench press more then four times his weight - 450 kilos"..I think they meant lbs, not kilos. Other than, nothing crazy.

    nothing 'wrong' with him in that vid, but he doesnt appear to be insanely strong, 450lbs isnt a massive bench, its very good, but i know afew people who can do that for afew good sets, and they arent even powerlifters.
