He is an absolute machine. Looked like he threw one of the test dummies

he makes it look easy even when it was tough through the middle of the pull!

He benches more than he pulls? Am I the only one who thinks that's crazy?

No, I am with ya, but some guys are just bench machines. I can pull 2x what I can bench though...

I'm going to assume he's using a multi ply bench shirt. If I'm wrong than my bad but I doubt it. That's also why I'm not a fan of equipped lifting b/c I like to know I lifted the weight and not the equipment I'm wearing.

I would tend to agree with you... the bench becomes a row at the bottom of the movement. No matter what though, thats crazy strong!

He benched in a SDP, I believe a 3-ply as most SDP's I've seen are, but someone correct me if I'm wrong about his particular shirt.

As for the equipment thing..... it's a pretty common misconception about the gear. One that very quickly disappears when you first try to learn multi-ply gear. Yes it helps you lift more, no it does not do it for you.
