Not sure but might be a new unofficial British/Irish record? I don't think it was a sanctioned event but could be wrong. Big pressing by Ben non the less at under 125kg.

I will never understand why these guys lift their head off the bench, it makes their chests go down and makes it harder to touch.

It helps with coordinating the leg drive.

The head comes up, the chest does flatten a little. Then to initiate the upward movement you straighten the body back out as you drive with your legs.

Are the two guys on the left and right sat down not allowed to clap or congratulate? Judges?

No, it feeds a bit of material to the chest plate and makes it looser, thus making it EASIER to touch.

Ben who?

I'm actually surprised to see a bit of equipped lifting as it seems to be on the downturn (in the UK at least).


Ben Loughrey. Under 125kg lifter. Hit 440kg squat and 360kg deadlift for 1152.5kg total.

Impressive lift.

He isn't; IPF rules require head down throughout.

His 440kg squat was good too, definitely hit depth.
