How much could Jackie Chan bench in his younger days?

[Ibm]

I was looking at his younger pictures and he was underratedly jacked. He looked really strong.

In his prime he'd probably do well over 300lb.

408-490lbs.

3 plates I can imagine, I'm 5'10 165 and can do a (touch and go) 315. 400 pounds I'd find hard to believe.

Lol bullshit, 315 at the most, and probably most likely not more than 275 for a one rep max.

I doubt he trained much powerlifting.

 

[DEVILsSON]

If anything, I imagine he did 135 for reps.

A lot of the articles with celebrity stars tend to contain a lot of exaggerations if not outright nonsensical claims. The writers often don't understand what the claimed numbers represent. We also don't know the technique involved. Did he quarter rep bench reps and call it bench? Some people in the gym do just that.

High reps also don't translate that well into max weight.
