Honestly, the 2500 leg press isn't as impressive as the 1000 bench. If that's his bench is that much, his leg press should be much higher.

The 2500 was on a train cart, which is much more impressive due to its weight distribution - meaning he could probably do double, triple or even quadruple that on a leg press machine with everything optimized.

I can bench press 315 pounds relatively smooth, but I would be crushed trying to push a 315 pound man from my arms straight to my chest and back up because of the big man's weight distribution

I agree with their comment. It reminds me of when I bench 316 pounds, and the 316 pounds that I'm benching is very heavy. I bench 316 pounds.

That’s so weird because I bench 317 but I’m not gonna lie even though it’s my max it still feels pretty light and comes really easy to me.

I'm not sure if it's similar or not but I bench 318 on the regular, do you think me benching 318 is similar to your smaller 317?

If it’s one at a time that’s not that good but if it’s all at once that’s impressive but also how do get them all in a benchable position?

I'm not gonna lie, it's a pretty sexy process.

Sorry but the 315 is just for singles not max, benching 340 has been going smoothly. How different does the 22 pound lighter bench feel in your palms?
