330 lb bench press x 7 reps at 130 lb bodyweight paraplegic powerlifter raw lifter
I am a T-6 complete paraplegic from an industrial accident when I was 19 yrs old. I sufered a broken back and torn aorta from being crushed by 1000lbs of aluminum channels. I spent 7 months in the hospital and left weighing 110lbs at my height of 6ft. I guess you could say a spinal cord injury is one way to lose a lot of weight and be able to keep it off, but definitely not preferred. I started lifting 1 year after discharge from the hospital. I took first at the Wisconsin state fair in 89 and went on to set 5 world records in the bench. My bench PR #39;s were 405 at 131 bodyweight, 370 at 123, 340 at 113. 315 x 10, 228 x 28, 140 x 66 when I weighed 137(my heaviest bodyweight post injury). thanks for taking the time to check the video out and reading my story!From:gymratt42Views:0 0ratingsTime:01:04More inSports
