What do you guys think about the new bench press world record? Also what are your thoughts on equipped vs RAW lifting?

Before I even knew what a bench press shirt was , first time I saw the 1000+ plus lifts, I was like , that guys wearing some weird shirt, that's cheating, where's the guys doing it without the cheating shirt.

Raw bench press is what counts.

I personally prefer Raw it just feels like the lifter and just the weight. But both are still impressive indeed. Well done guys. Now let me go home and Bench 225 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Here is equipped bench press but those shirts aren't single ply. It is a difference between single ply equipment and multiply equipment. For example the world record in a single ply shirt is 425kg and it is hold by Blaine Sumner in ipf. In IPF(International powerlifting federation) you can compete equipped using single ply equipment or raw using sleeves not wraps for knees and without bench shirt or suit

Look at the suit and all the supportive gear that guy was using, it's lifting half the weight for him pretty much. Personally I find raw lifting more impressive.

Equipped is a joke IMO!

Love it how the guy in red shirt keeps his palm under 250kgs as if he's gonna curl it in case it gets dropped.

If he took off the bench shirt i recon he’d give the actual record a decent attempt

RAW is the right way…my opinion.

A good exercise would be… what can Julius do equipped .. and what can this guy do raw …. that would shed a lot of light on the difference !!

Anyone pretending that this isn't crazy Impressive is kidding themselves. If equipped doesn't count then neither do any of the lists where the athletes take steroids.

I care about both…the fact he held that much over his face with control is amazing. I lift in both equipped and raw with wraps and to have your central nervous system prepared for something like that is beyond anything i can dream of anyway.

Raw and equipped are two completely different sports….julius can't bench Will's record with a shirt and will can't bench julius's raw record. There is no point in comparing the two

Only raw counts. You might as well as wear an exoskeleton and press 2000 lbs.

It does, because whatever the form, assistance is just that: assistance. I've often thought, for this reason, that they should have two sets of Olympic Competition: one that's Chemically Augmented; one that's for the Straight-Edge types.

I vote for a new assisted Bench record with people. Each guy can choose 10 people to assist him with the lift. Maybe we can get the record to 20K!

Thor's record doesn't count when it comes to bench pressing. You are lifting by your whole body strength to do deadlifts while you are using only your wrist and chest to bench a weight

Assisted benching means nothing

This guy could easily throw in another 100lbs on. That lift went up quick and smooth with zero struggle.

This is a joke 👎🏻 Not real, not an actual lift. The entire point of a lifting record is to see who can lift the most. By themselves! Without assistance! This junk is illegitimate and isn’t worth wasting time watching 🤦🏻‍♂️

That’s not even penching when u have that equipment. Real bench is what u can press without any equipment.

i cannot bench anything. Maybe 1 or 2 lbs. But with the shirt I bench over 300lbs

While I’m very impressed by his strength and ease of the lift,I thought you had to make a significant pause on your chest waiting for the bench signal from the ref?!..Or did I just miss it?!..
