"Benchpress 260 kilo (573lbs) 5 reps RAW"

Impressive weight, but kinda disappointing that power-lifters can smash lifts like that just because their fatness cuts their range of motion by half. I could stretch my 150kg bench to 180kgx5 overnight if I woke up with a gut like that.

Same goes with all that slingshot gear I see a lot of powerlifters using now. I just wanna see good ol' fashion full range of motion with a pause benchpress, without suits and gear to make them look stronger then they really are.
