Freddi Smulter 400kg WR Bench Press

[Bench Polkov]

Set at Bench Worlds in Denmark last night. He initially broke the record with 377.5 and then after Jona Leo beat that with 380 he added an extra 20kg to the bar to blow it out of the water. Jona replied with 400.5 but was unsuccessful.

How the hell are records broken by 20kg at that level.

Are single lift and full meet records seperate in IPF?

Yeah gear is a funny thing though. If you train it all the time to get the groove right and down pat the raw bench just feel strange and weird. So I would expect a huge difference between his raw and shirted as being the IPF best shirted bencher he would spend 90% of his time in the shirt.

 

[spartacus]

yes, good point.

Scary if he can get near 300kg raw in IPF.

 

[Brick]

Holy fuck!!!!!! 400 kegs that is nuts

If he spent some time training just raw, it would fall quite quickly.
