I just got off the phone with my friend, Paul Vargo, who worked one of the booths at the Arnold Classic just a few weeks ago. He told me that blew up a 700 lbs. bench (in the booth) at a bodyweight of 260! Even though it was an unofficial lift, it was enough to grab the attention of some people, especially an invite to Bench Press America in Chicago this May.

I bring this up for a particular reason: to any of you that doubt your own abilities - he is COMPLETELY natural, and I know this for a fact...
