Elbow sleeves =/= raw?

Elbow sleeves =/= raw?

Elbow sleeves are usually considered raw. Elbow wraps are not. They usually aren't allowed in competition, but they don't really aid your lift.

He can't be natty

There are many guys that have benched 400+ raw weighing in the 160s. A few have cracked 500.

Roids, proper diet and programming that is.

I've thought about it myself.

 

[MatterOverMind]

Roids, proper diet and programming, and top-tier strength genetics, that is.

FTFY

Towards the end of the video where James was pressing the weight 2" off the safety rack, was that to train the nervous system or was it more of a mental thing?

 

[JimRussel]

Roids, proper diet and programming that is.

Not really.

 

[MisterHappy]

Wait, does benching raw equal less or more? And how does wearing a condom while benching make a difference!?!

 

[PUO3]

I've thought about it myself.

Well good news is it isn't as damaging as we were taught to believe, except for the amounts that mr olympia types are downing. Still risky but less so than smokin or some such shit

I've been reading studies with different steroids given to animals and one with old ladies with broken hips. Interesting read. Trying to find the actual long term studies from California on people who use them. I can find abstracts but not the study.
