the ferryman will always need his coin. Member 1085, 408 posts SQ 220, BP 175, DL 285680.0 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq | Don't see why not, There was an NFL running back (Napoleon Kaufman x Raider) who benched 420, that's 190kg give or take, at about 85kg bodyweight. what impressed me more was that he could also run a 4.22 40yrd dash. Most natural sprinters, fast people who work out tend to get pretty strong and powerful while remaining pretty lean in my experience. | ||

 Sports an extremely muscular arse. Member 38, 6253 posts | LessThanLuke said: Why? Just because it's fairly specialised strength. I wouldn't think he'd have the time or inclination to practice. | ||

 King of the impossible Member 3130, 2082 posts SQ 310, BP 200, DL 310820.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | JC said: Professional union/league players I know bench(ed) AT LEAST once a week When I played we gymmed 4 times per week (5 in off season). Sessions were based around push pull, 2 upper and 2 lower. Each upper day consisted of two bench movements per day, so 4 a week in total. Its all about that hand off strength and in league the ability to push ones self up off the floor quickly to optimize the speed of the play the ball. So yes JC, you are correct  bench is very neccessary!dazzachap said: Its all about looking good in those tight tops. Also this | ||

 Sugdens crazy old person. Member 4936, 7288 posts SQ 270, BP 155, DL 270695.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Recognition vocabulary versus active vocabulary. Billy maybe his dad threw him in the corner and fed him with a fast twitch slingshot | ||

 Trump will get another four years Member 126, 16707 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 225495.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 25.02.2014 @ 16:26 PM by WILLSAN My cousin did an s+c internship at a top union club and reckoned a lot of them ( including England internationals) were lazy arses in in the gym. Bench and biceps and out. He also told me that in terms of strength most were above average but not anything special. | ||

 more like 'FAT TROLL' Member 984, 6331 posts SQ 420, BP 260, DL 3351015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq | I believe it. I have trained with a 90kg bodybuilder that managed 140x10, 160x4 and then 180x1 on bench. His form was strict touch and go. He is a pure bodybuilder with no interest in strength at all. I have no doubt a rugby player that focuses on power and speed as part of his training could do the same, if not a little more. | ||

 403 forbidden message Member 160, 5121 posts SQ 190, BP 137.5, DL 225552.5 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | billynomates said:Australian rugby player Will Genia is reported to have bench pressed 180kg for 2 reps. He weighs 85kg. To my knowledge there is no video or proof other than the word of his teammates (it happened during team bench press testing a few years ago). Do you think this is believable? How do we know he's not a half-rep Harry with his "bro" doing shrugs at the same time whilst saying "it's all you, it's all you". | ||

If he's an unbelievable athlete, he wouldn't be believable. If his feat of strength is believable, he'll be a believable athlete. | ||
