    Allen that was totally impressive! 633 with those commands was strong. If you want to take a short vacation to New Orleans I would love for you to come lift at the Clash for Cash raw powerlifting meet. Check out the application on raw504.com. More people need to know about your strength. Plus this meet will be televised on FoxSportsNet and streamed live online. September 11 is the date and its going to be a showdown.

    That was an amazing press! Does he 3 lift, or just bench? Looks like thick overall guy.

    Wow is all I can say. Really, really strong.

    I'm not sure that crowd knows how rare a bench like that is! Where's the excitement!?!?

    Wow... Very impressive bench!

    Was it just me or was that spotter on the left... a little small for that kind of weight...

    He did this meet on a whim after already benchin on his regular bench day for that week, he normally can do that weight for a triple, we are freinds with the meet director so we attended the meet, he just wanted to see where he was before his Prep for the USPF bench meet at the Olympia this year.

    I believe a full raw powerlifting meet will be held at the Olympia in the near future. I certainly will do my part to help make it happen. For Allen benching that much at 285 is awesome. I hope you do well at the Olympia. You will get alot of respect for your bench. Hope to see you do some full raw meets in the future!

    That looked way too easy. Fantastically strong. Also had a nice 705 in a loose single ply rage x, though I do have to say it was crazy only having one spotter.
