I havent heard anything on it since Mendelson hit 1008, its kinda died down...this summer there should be some good stuff happeneing. I think that 1008 by Mendy is good though.
 
Gene Rychlak got hurt benching? What happened.

well i saw this video online of gene goin for 1031 or somethin like that. and he came down and the bar just like touched his chest and he had some rib problem. i guess the bar touched pretty hard. im not totally sure about all this. so if someone knows the whole story for sure then they should post it.

The raw # is in the 700's I think.  Ryan Kennelly used to be up there and I read his benching booklet but I'm not sure what has happened w/ him since.

Someone always has to write on the walls "Mike was here". But then someone else puts an arrow and it says "Mike is a ****got". So Mike comes back to check it out, "What the hell?! I was here but not as a ****got!"

its still plain ridiculous I'm not sure but mendelson is roughly 300 lbs?  So he's benching 3.33 times his body weight.  How impressive would this look if a 150 lbs came out and benched 500!
