Media Conor benching with bumper plates and doing 20lb dumbbell flys

145 aint bad for a 5ft7 145lb mcgregor.
 
He loaded up 2…..TWO!!!! 25lb plates, on each side…. brah……
145 pounds... Conor going back to FW confirmed. Bout to fight Volk for the title.
 
In fairness his grip looks pretty damn wide and the flys are at an incline, but yeah like others have already said Connor isn’t a weightlifter so I’m not sure it matters beyond just making random people on the internet feel strong lol
 
Bumperplates lololol. That is what CrossFit girls use to give the appearance they're lifting massive weight.

Real men life iron
 
Always shocks me how shit 90% of mma fighters strength and conditioning training is. If it wasn't for the rampant gear use and insane work loads they'd all just look like DYELs
Always shocks me how delusional non-fighters are about conditioning.
 
Could be benching/weights for reps. Which helps with cardio and muscle endurance/fatigue.

that’s normally what lightweight high reps is used for. As the contrary would be to bulk using low reps high weight which it does not look like he’s doing
 
He probably wanted to make sure he didn't panic during the photo shoot. Is normal.
