    Our own King Kong (aka Robert Wilkerson) lifting VERY big!

    Robert is competing at the SPF Nationals as I write this. He has a 975 lbs raw squat and 625 lbs raw bench on the books so far!

    AMAZING lifting!

    Those are some huge numbers; I heard that he pulled 605 lbs which gives him a 2,205 RAW total.

    Did anyone take video of the lifts?

    I watched the squat vid and thought damn that's pretty good. Then when I realized it was raw I almost shat myself.

    Thank you Chris and everybody else this is just the beginning. This lift was a shock to me with the lost of my best friend and my only father figure my grand dad but it gave me the motivation to go all out and do what needed to be done. AtLarge is the best supplements and if anyone says different checkout the videos.

    Great work once again Rob!
